NOW (.O ON WITH IHI STORY CHAPTER SEVENTEEN | OHEI LA and Dick drove to Green i ij wich Village and .sought out an } Italian restaurant where dinner still was being served. Parking the roadster near the en * trance, they passed through the half-do;cited dining room into the September coolness of the garden In the rear. r Tables were set here and a few diners lingered. A girl- in lavender muslin wearing a wide hat, in triguingly simple, faced a middle aged escort. A group of newspaper men nearby was discussing a late book. Farther away sat two wom en dining together. ' John, the proprietor, wandered from table to table, a muffler wrapped about his throat as was his custom in any except the hot test July temperature. John had - been a singer. He hurried to gre-T the new comers and ushered them to a table. “Would Madame like the special t salad?" he asked eagerly. Then he frowned at his mistake. The young lady was not “madame.” She looked much too young. , “It’s very good, Sheila,” Dick as sured her. “Want to try it? All right. John. Two dinners with the special salad.” , “Would you like to see the ehicken 1 rooked?” Dick asked. Grateful for the interruption, Sheila rose and— followed Dick into the kitchen, which was well forward. She did not want, just th-m, to hear more of his pleas that she should give up her part in the road show and stay in New York. It was a large, airy kitchen with a huge range and spit. Three white-capped chefs wandered about, apparently aimlessly yet actually with deft purpose. This one with a fork lifted the curling, coiling spaghetti and let it fall once more with a shake of his head. That one watched the chicken ’ or split uncooked fowls with a sharp cleaver on a smoothly scrubbed pine board. Another stirred, sniffed, and seasoned a red s dish sauce, thick and fragrant. n u a JOHN himself, at the farther end of the kitchen, apparently was in what Dick called a “mood.” A stranger stood beside him and gazed negligently and impatiently on some snapshots and cabinet photographs which John seemed ' bent on displaying. The stranger shook his head. “I can’t help it. I can’t do a thing about it. Those are the orders! •Pay up or get out.” “But my grandmother! My mother in Italia! They will starve if I close! You are wrong. I never „ sell one drop in this place!” The restaurant keeper flung down the family portraits on a bare table. They were instantly swept aside to make room for a huge soup kettle. Bending, with tears gathering afresh, John collected the photo Contract Bridge BY W. F,. M KKNN'EY Secretary American Bridge 1/cagne IN my last article I explained to you bidding on the following hand. South became the declarer at a contract of four hearts. Some of my readers might ask how North could infer from South's bid that South held a five-card heart suit. Remember, North, in bidding diamonds first and spades on the second round, definitely showed two four-card suits. South had bid hearts. With the Information that three suits are stopped. South did not go to three no trump, which clearly showed that he was afraid of the club suit. By jumping to three diamonds, he asked North to bid three no trump If he had the club suit stopped. AA-K-4-3 VJ-3 ♦ A-Q-8-5 ♦ 8-5-4 AJ- 8-6- ORTH 10-9-5 2 S £ VK-8- V 9-2 lu £ 6-5 ♦ J-9 5 H f 7-6- 4.K-J- Denier 4-2 10-7-2 SOUTH aa-9 AQ-7 VA-Q-10-7-4 ♦ K-10-3 4.Q-6-3 *7 Analyzing the bidding further, "remember that South definitely know that North held only four diamonds. Certainly he would not be asking North to try to make , five diamonds on a four-card suit. Therefore, South, in his jump bid of three diamonds, was asking North to bid either three no trump or to try to support the heart suit even if he must dir so with an honor ' and one card. He certainly would not ask North to support with that weak holding unless he held at least a good five card suit. ''^l Ml AFTER EVERY MEAL N] f graphs together and held them to his breast. “Is he in trouble?” asked Chella hesitantly. Dick frowned. “Don’t know. If he’s sell ing booze he is. That's certain. But I’m sure he pays his rent. Trevor | owns this block, you know. I’ll see what I can do.” While Dick proffered, his assist ance, Sheila returned to the table in the garden. At the next table, vacant when she and Dick had arrived, a tall, | blond young man was sitting. He ; was smoking thoughtfully. Present- I ly a waiter, napkin on arm, hurried ’ to the young man’s side, bearing a steaming plate of soup. Suddenly the stranger’s eyes met Sheila’s and he smiled. It was a frank smile, ingenuous and win ning. There w’as nothing flirtatious about it. Sheila smiled back. “Aren’t you Miss Shayne?” the man asked in a low tone. With out waiting for an answer, he nodded slowly. “Yes, of course you are. I’ve i seen you on the stage. I saw you at Atlantic City and I wanted to see you here. Where have you bern?” “You mean you saw me in “When Lights Are Low’?’’ He nodded. a an r TAVING secured another part, Sheila didn’t mind in the least admitting what had happened. Others knew it now anyhow. “I lost my job in that show in Atlantic City,” she said. “I guess I wasn't much of a success.” “But you were! You were ex cellent! I suppose it was Marion —yes, of course, that was it! Mar ion doesn’t like competition. Do you have a job now?” Sheila nodded. “I’m going on the | road.” “Not really? Why, you can be a Broadway star if you stay here. On the road—!” “I have to eat.” “Don’t we all? Come and cat with me any time. But meanwhile don't go on the road. Are you married?” Sheila gave a start. “Good ness, no!” The man laughed. “Well, you will be. I’ve seen it so many times. Girls who have talent, looks, per sonality, spoil it all by running off and getting married. I’ll bet you’re engaged this minute—” “No!” Sheila’s voice rang out quickly. “Well, you will be. Red checked curtains in your kitchen windows, a pot of geraniums on the sill, doll carriages around the place to stumble over—” “How r did you know?” Sheila be gan, her cheeks burning. “How did I know? I didn’t until a minute ago. You look just like that kind of a girl. Well—” his tone lowered. “I’ll be seeing you.” His glance dropped. Looking up, Sheila saw Dick coming along the garden w-alk. “It seems John was in a jam,” Dick admitted, seating himself. “Hadn’t paid his rent. I got Trevor on the wire and he gave him an other week to raise it.” B B B THE waiter brought the first course, a plate carefully mo saicked with shiny red peppers, sil ver fish, cool green onion tops and radishes. “When we’re married—” Dick be gan. “We’re not going to be mar ried,” Sheila interrupted, “No? How- much do you want to stake on it?” “All I have! She.shook the con tents of her little purse on the ta blecloth. A key. A postage stamp. Four pennies and a folded bill. (To Be Continued) The Play 1 The play of the hand is as fol lows: West opens the jack of clubs which East wins with the ace. East returns the nine of clubs, the declarer plays the six. West over takes with the ten and immediately returns the king. East discarding the five of spades, which immedi | ately warns the declarer that East ; is attempting to shorten himself in i that suit. West continues with the seven of 1 clubs. While it will give the de- I clarer a sluff ruff, it also may give his partner a valuable discard. | The declarer discards a small I spade from the dummy, East does ! the same and South, the declarer, | trumps with the foi*r of hearts, i Declarer leads the queen 'of ! spades, overtaking in dummy with j the ace of spades. The drop of the | ten spot by East further warns him | that East now is probably out of I spades. I The jack of hearts now is led ! from dummy. East refuses to cover I and the declarer takes the finesse. The three of hearts next is played. Again East refuses to cover and the declarer finesses the ten. Tire drop of West's nine marks West out of hearts. tt tt tt Declarer must now be careful not to lead a spade, or East will ruff. He should lead the king of dia monds and make a mental note of the drop of the nine spot by West. He continues with a small dia mond. West's jack of diamonds marking him out of diamonds, so the declarer continues with the queen of diamonds from dummy, West discarding the six of spades. 1 Now the good eight of diamonds ! is lead frfom dummy and declarer discards the seven of spades. He then leads a spade from dummy, j East, having nothing left but the king and eight of hearts, is forced to trump with the eight of hearts. South, the declarer, overtrumps with the queen of hearts and wins the last trick with the ace of i hearts completing a simple coup to ! make his contract of four odd. It is one of the neatest plays in bridge, and one that requires good | card reading and proper timing. I (Coovrieht. 1933. bv NEA Service. Inc.)
