August Days Foreshadow Holiday End
Vacationers at Lake Hurry to Do Things Planned Early in Season.
By MARGARET B. JAMESON Times Special Writer LAKE MAXINKUCKEE, Aug. 10. —August days at a summer resort | bring realization of a fleeting season and vacationists try to “get around” to doing things they planned in June. Invitations to friends, casually made during the spring uplift, must | be made good. Reading of books stored for summer leisure or completion of the knitting intended for early fall wear head many August occupation lists and torture the consciences of vacationists in the | grip of August's sizzling days. Culver has been gay for the tennis | players in the U. S. Lawn Tennis | Association meet this week. Miss | Jane Adams entertained at dinner | Thursday night and the Misses | Mary and Elizabeth Crawford had | a dinner party on Wednesday night | before the Culver Military Academy | dance. |
Swim at Night Night swimming parties have kept | the “oldsters” awake until early | hours along the lake’s east side where groups of young people in- | dulge in what they call “chocolate | dips.” Mrs. Alex Vonnegut was here all | last week visiting Mrs. Clemens Vonnegut and Mrs. Ervin Vonnegut. Mrs. Carl Vonnegut and her two | children are with Mrs. Ervin Von- | negut, and Messrs. Alex, Ervin and Sy Vonnegut arrived for the week- | end. Miss Laura Miller is continuing her visit at the Vonnegut cottage and Mr. and Mrs. John Ray Newcomb spent Sunday there. Another guest of Mrs. Ervin Vonnegut was | Mrs. William G. Sparks. Mr. and Mrs. Walker Winslow and Miss Eleanor Winslow are in | Leland, Mich., for a short visit. They are to return in time to go to Lake Geneva for the Inland Regatta next | week, | Plan to See Races Clayton Mogg, Jack Wood and! John Brandon are also to go to the | lake for the Inland races. | Miss Emmy Haerle is visiting Mrs. | Elsa Jensen. She attended the Cul- | ver Military dance Wednesday night. Miss Jane Cox, Indianapolis, also was a guest at the dance. She is visiting Mrs. Guy Wainwright. Mr. and Mrs. George Home, Miss Betsy Home, George Home Jr. and Miss Marjorie Home are guests of Mr. and Mrs. Francis Dunn. Miss Beatrice Geddes are spending a week with Mrs. Leo Burnett. Miss Geddes is to remain for two weeks.

American Bridge League Secrefary NE of the unending charms of | bridge is that the other fellow {may make a mistake. Defense at | best is difficult, and not every con- | tract reached at the bridge table needs to be ironclad to be made, as |the defenders, unfortunately for | them, can only guess at the strength {of the cards held by the declarer. Even though the contract is a | trick too high, however, a good | bridge player does not give up. | Weakness may be made to simulate | strength, as Geoffrey Mott-Smith, | tournament director of the American Bridge League, proved when he played a small slam in hearts on today’s hand and fulfilled the contract. Mott-Smith sat South, and expected somewhat more from his partner's free bid. Inasmuch as East and West were not vulnerable, he regarded the bid of five spades by West as an effort to take a paying sacrifice, and decided that the chance of making a slam with North's diamond bid was too
set. When the dummy went down, he regretted his optimism, but did not give up the ship. A successful finesse in diamonds against the queen would still leave him one trick short, so he felt his best resort was a little deception. He won the opening lead with dummy’s ace, and then without a moment's hesitation returned the deuce of diamonds. Each, reason-
