East opened the fourth-best club, and Weat won with the Ace. In studying the Dummy and reviewing the bidding West reasoned that his partner, who had bid on a Queen- high suit, must have held the heart Ace to justify and Overcall.
He therefore laid down the heart King and followed with the remain- Ing heart, which East won with the Ace. East now returned another heart, which West ruffed, thus defeating the contract.

Against this background a charm- ing love story is told,
The story deals with a girl who, ¦ jilted by a Paris correspondent, and stranded there, becomes a fashion writer, wins fame, and finally finds love in the loyalty, of another newspaperman, who has stuck to her through her trouble.
Madge Evans plays the heroine with charming and convincing sin- cerity, while the Lothario news correspondent is magnificiently portrayed by Otto Kruger. Ro- bert Young plays the loyal friend.
Comedy is injected by a clever cast. Una Merkel is the cynical fashion illustrator and constant companion of the heroine. Ted Healy plays the comical bartender at the American bar, and Bert Roach le hilarious as the Ameri- can reporter who is constantly drunk there. Edward Brophy is a hilarious figure as the "blunder- ing, but well intentioned newshound Ham."
