Etheridge To Get Conservation Job JContir.iied from Page one.> the board of the School for the Deaf at Morganton, also was announced. Dully DlMpntcii Rnrrni, In tne Mir Wnllrr Hotel. Itv .1 C. mASKKHVIIiL* Raleigh, Aug. zi —H. Bruce Ether idge of Manteo, Dare county has been offered the post of Director of the De partment of Conservation and De velopment, it was learned from au thoritative sources here today, and is expected to accept the appointment. Governor J. C. B. Ehringhaus, who was here yesterday en route to Wrightsville Beach where he will make an address today before the an nual convention of the North Caro lina Bankers Association, declined to discuss this appointment other than to say he was not yet ready to make any announcement concerning it, But it has been definitely learned from sour ces close to the governor that the job has been definitely offered to Ether idge and is now awaiting his decision. If Etheridge accepts the appoint ment —and it is now generally be lieved that he will—Colonel J. W. Harrelson, who has been director of the department for the past four years Is expected to return to his post on the faculty of State College as professor of matematics, from which he was called by former Governor O. Max Gardner to head the Conservation De partment It has been known in news paper circles for several weeks that this pest at State College was being laald op3n, in the event Colonel Har relson was not reappointed head of the Conservation Department. The opinion has long prevailed ,b£r,e HENDERSON, '(RC.J R.aLY PIkPgfJH, THURSDAY, AUGUST 24, 1933 ' SOCIETY NEWS I•«• ‘ J t that if Harrelson was not reappoint ed head of the Conservation Depart ment that Etheridge would get it. When the 1933 general assembly was still in session, 60 members of the house— half its membership— signed a petition and sent it to Governor Eh- Jinghaus asking him to appoint Eth eridge to this post. Etheridge has served in the general assmbly four regions, in the State Snate in 190 V foot m the house in 1929, 1931 and 1933—and each time was one of the most popular and influential mem bers. During the 1933 session he was chairman of the house committee on Banks and Banking and played a very large part in gettfnlg through much, of the emergency banking legislation .that was enacted. Etheridge served as one of the Govrnor’s closest ad vfeors during the banking crisis and it if* generally agreed that Etheridge did more to get much of this enacted with little: or no opposition than any one else, largely because of the high esteem in which he was held iby his colleagues. E>theridg e : s a banker Iby profession, having bee n cashier of the Bank of Manteo for many years. But Etheridge knows ust as much a l ,bout coniseirvati on as he does about ■banking, and was just as influential in "irg’slation affecting conservation fas he was in that having to do with banking. He was a member of the old fisheries board prior to its con solidation wiiith the Board of Conser vation and Development in 1925, and has ''eon a member of that board co n tinuously ever since. He ha s played an apitive part in the framing and (passage of the various conservation,, laws by the 1929, 1931 and 1933 leg. iislaturets and has been one of the principal defenders of the Conserva tion Department whenever it was un der attack. Observers agree that but for the able work don e by Etheridge and Representative W. C. Ewing of Fayetteville, also a member of the hoard of conservation and chairman so the Committee o n Conservation in' the 1933 house, the department would probably have either been abolished or rendrd helpless by this l last general assembbly. Those on the iniside here know that but for the valiant defensa of this department put up by Ethe ridge while a member of the Commit tee on Reorganization of State Gov ernment. the committee would have recommended its! complt abolition, since this was one so the depart, ments that Representative Tam Bowie wanted to demolish. While there may be some criticism concerning the appointment of Eth eridge as director of the Conservation Department because he is from the eastern section of the State, there is no doubt that the appointment will mieet with approval from most of the sportsmen and conservationists in all sections of the State, according to the prevailing opinion here. For 'Etheridge is recognized generally as a real friend of conservation and as an authority on all its many phases, a,s a result of his long service on the 'board. His appointment will be es pecially pleasing- to the 'commercial fishermen of his ow n coastal section where he is well known and highly regarded. Since both of the previ ous directors of the department came from the Piedmont or western part of the state, many think iit is time that .an eastern man should hold this post, •especially since so much of the work the des>artyneni is r in. tht e&at. marian martin pattern Complete, Diagrammed Marian Margin Sew Chart Included PATTERN 9697 The new season we are ushering in, promises much in the way of smart things to do and ultra-smart clothes to wear.

Y. CONTRACT BRIDGE WRITTEN FOR CENTRAL PRESS By E. V. SHEPARD famous bridge teacher FALSE LARDING HaliSE CARDING consists of playing cards out of normal order. If the 10 Is led through your Q-.J-X you false card if you play the Q, as the normal thing to do is to cover with the J. If well conceived, false carding often proves confusing to opponents. Declarer lias no partner to deceive, so he may more safely use deception in his play than the defenders can risk. False carding often becomes an obsession, thereby losing its possible value. Suppose that you are the de clarer and know that the adversary at your right will play the K. from K-Q, whenever he holds that combi nation. You lead the 9 up to dum my's A-J-10-X, when you must win three tricks in that suit, or try some other method of picking up enough to fulfill your contract. You let the 9 ride, and lose to the Q. At once you know that the addict at your right lacks the K, or he surely would play it instead of the straight play of the Q. Knowing that you can pinch the missing K at your left saves ybu from trying any other ex periment. Habitual false carders are a continual source of revenue to those who know their failing. Some times playing cards straight and sometimes false carding always puz zles opponents. Senseless false carding by the de clarer resembles the ostrich burying his head in the sand to conceal his presence. If the declarer wins the opening England Likely To Lose His Job (Continued from rage one.) fully a year ago rather pointedly sug gested to Colonel Harrelson that it might be a good thing to geit another State game warden. But the sug gestion was not acted upon and Eng. land was retained. Then the 1933 General Aesantibly •came along with blood i n its eye and it was almost all the friends of the conservation department could do to (prevent the almost com/plsite abolition of tbe department. But for the ef forts put forth in its behalf by Ethe ridge, a member of the House, aind also' of tlhe conservation board, by Representative W.' C. Ewing, of •Fayetteville, another member of tbe (board and by Senators B.urgyn of Davidison and Baily of Washington the department probably would have been abolished, or the appropriation reduced to the point where it would have had to close up, ■many :agree. Most observers also agree that most of this opposition to the department was based o n opposi tion to anid dissatisfaction with Eng land as state game warden and his adminjs(t ration of the game end of the department. Some of those were so •bitter that their opposition extended a desire to get rid of Harrelson as well as England because h© had con tinued to retain: himi.

He can not be playing a singleton Ace as no trumps are not bid with single tons. A no trump lead of a Q may be from Q-J and others or from A-Q-J. If the declarer wins the first trick with his Ace, everybody knows that he must still hold the K. but if he wins the first trick with the K no body can tell where the Ace is. The declarer may be afraid not to make good his K when possible. Suppose the declarer has A-K-Q of a suit, when a no trump lead is made of the J. That lead may be made from A-J-10, K-J-10 or J-10-9. If the declarer wins the trick, either with Ace or K. he is false carding, still holding an equally high honor. Suppose the lead of the J is from J-10-9. If the Q wins the first trick the impression is given that the leader has the A-K-J, the K-J-10 or A-J-10. If the second lead is won with the K over the 10 it looks as if the leader might hold the Ace. If the first trick is won with the Q and the next with the Ace, it looks as if the leader may have the K, whereas the lead may have been from only J-10-9 and the declarer still may have the K. False carding with low cards never produces any impression to poor players but it may prove very de ceptive to careful observers.

The sportsmen and protectionists; believ ethat this meant England would isoon go and that the game and in land fisheries division of the dispart orient would be along different lines. But so far nothing has been done, Har prison has been retained as dirctor, England has stay, ed on m some indefinite capacity and no miove hais been made to reor ganize the gam and inland fisheries divisions. Some have frankly wond ered wht was the reason for a,ll this nnd whether Hairrelson was being ikept on to take care of England or merely to gJve both himself and Eng land a chance to voluntarily move on it© something else. This latter theory is given the greater credence. Many CARD OF THANKS.

We are ve/> r grateful and thankful to the Rev. Mr. Hughes and his assis tants. blieve tihAt but for Harrison's differ ence in dealing with England that he might hove been reappointed, and that on eof the principal reasons he is not salted for reappointment is that he refused to part company with England, now generally regarded as the Jonah of the department. Not (that England did not work hard and administer his division to the best of Ms ability. Those who know him know that 'he hais always been a halrd •conscientious aind industrious worker. •But England was trained in the Kit chen. Simlmonis school of politics and is admittedly a relict of the admin tetratiom of former Governor A. W. McLean, who was responsibly for his appointment to . the post of game warden. His methods and point of view have irritated the sportsmen of the state and they don’t want him as game war den. » What Etheridge will do about Eng land remains to be seen. But knows all about what has already happened . and how the sportsmen feel alnd what the 1933 general assembly al most did. If he keeps him he will have plenty of trouble.
