BY MARJORIE BINFORD WOODS Times Fashion Editor CONSIDER this winning suit whi:h Mrs. Moorhead Mannon is wearing! We chanced on her at noon today as she was entering the Indianapolis Athletic Club to compete in the National Inter-Club Contract Bridge Tournament now in session there.

With her partner, F, R. Buck, she wli! defend the Henry L. Dollman Trophy which they won. in the mixed pair event held here last year. If perfection in dress is any criterion to her bridge we are betting on Mrs. Mannon’s chances! u u 'T'HE black crepe costume suit (from an Indianapolis shop) boasts a Castilian gray, loosely woven swagger coat and luxurious furs. The one-piece frock is infallibly fetching with its matching gray winding sash, its inimitable Schiaparelli clips fastening the front of the blouse. A black Toya billed hat, sensationally large black leather envelope bag by Koret, black gloves and shoes give a de luxe air to the ensemble. Mrs. Mannon, like many bridgeminded persons, has a yen for simple, clear-cut clothes, well tailored and without frills and furbelows Dangling jewelry and fluffy sleeves hold no interest for her. She likens the selection of one’s wardrobe to the analysis of a contract bridge hand. “I count the

The high degree of concentration necessary in tournament bridge trains one to think in clear-cut terms—to take quick stock of situations and to successfully use the elimination play in selecting clothes as well as in bridge.” n u NOWLEDGE of cross-ruffing is evei a reminder, says Mrs. Mannon, that one should take advantage of the same system when selecting accessories that may> do ’ouble and triple duty with many outfits in the wardrobe. Every bridge player is on the lookout for a grand slam. It is an exciting, thrilling moment. Likewise, every up-to-the-minute shopper should be on he;’ toes not to miss a “grand slam” in clothes ... a real hunt for something exciting and thrilling to adc to the wardrobe. Local shops offer many a “grand slam,” extra-special, exhilarating clothes that will be advantages over your opponents. Don’t miss a trick!

MY DAY By Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt

, yy r ASHINGTON—Last evening in New York my daughter, son-in-law and a friend dined with me, after which we spent a few minutes watohing the dancing of a young girl in whom I am interested. We then went to a play called “Love on the Dole,” which is base<J on Walter Green-

wood’s novel. Both the novel and the play deal with a situation in England which is, however, so close to us that one can not help but be stirred by it. It is tragic, of course, and a challenge to our civilization. The father is remarkably well played and his cry for work still lingers in my ears. How many men have felt as he does! The three old women in the play are familiar sights in the slums of any big industrial city. All the characters are well done —such as the boy who got married and was put out by his father

for marrying, and the girl who lost her lover and, turning reckless, decided to take what she could of the material things, killing her real self and yet giving her dearly bought cash for the happiness of those she loved. They are all old stories to many of us, perhaps, but none the less heart-breaking. I think, when presented with such force and ability, they are a very valuable contribution to social thinking. When we came out I was very glad we had,been to the frivolous dancing before the play, as it would have been hard to adjust one's trend of thought without it. This morning I did a few errands and left on the 11:30 train for Washington. I found the trip much too short for I was hardly able to go through the mail before we were pulling into the Washington station. My grandchildren met me, and we went directly to the hospital to ask after a friend’s little boy who had just had a mastoid operation. On reaching the White House I found Mrs. Louis Howe and Mrs. Charles Fayerweather of New Lebanon, N. Y., waiting for me. In a few minutes we will all have tea, and then the grandchildren and I will read a while before their bedtime. (Copyright, 1936, by United Features Syndicate.)
