First of all, as it is such n luxury to get the right number on the telephone. why not abolish the ponderous directories (which appear to have been torn to bila by strong men with sickening regularity) in favour of one slim directory giving a selected list of wrong numbers? And why continue to supply that sadden rug of blotting-paper, which looks as though people cleaned their blcycles with Min wet weather? Then there are the pen-holders bit- ten and chewed by the thoughtful, and the nibs which, having served their purpose as daris, are only use. ful for digging gat out of things.

He was tempted to lay down the king of hearts and finesse through West for the queen of hearts, after which ho could finesse through East, for the queen of spades.

polat that Becker demonstrated his artistry. He simply dropped the nine of hearts.
This pus a different face upon matters, so far as South was con- cerned. Apparently the queen of hearts was going to drop without a finesse. Hence South could use hia ingle entry to dummy for the apade finesse Instead of for the Trump nesto,
South therefore led the sack of spades and let it ride for a finesse. West was happy to win with the queen of spades, and carefully-re-- turned his remaining spade. When South next laid down the king of hearts, he discovered he had been diddled.
Becker produced a low heart and took the second setting trick with the queen of hearts. If Becker had played the hearts "normally," how- ever, South would have made his contract instead of being set two tricks.

The Owl Dance is an ancient Blackfoot celebration involving fancy footwork and spontaneous yelps. Elizabeth was coached by a well-known Hollywood authority on Indian rituals named Iron Eyes Cody.

Besides the Owl, Elizabeth had to learn the Grass Dance and the Rabbit Dance. All three were performed in clinging, bleached buckskin costume.
