Play With Care; Game Is There
By OSWALD JACOBY
IT's hard to blame South for
what
happened in today's hand. Not one player in -10,000 would have the imagination and the caution to make the right play in this hand.
West opened the five of dia- monds, and South wundered whether to play the ace or the queen from the
duminy. He finally decided to play the queen, ant East ruffed.
East promptly returned heart to West's face, and West led the king of diamonds. De- clarer saw no help for 11. He put up dummy's ace, and East ruffed again.
East got out safely with a trump, and West sat back to col- lect a diamond trick towards the end of the play. The defenders. thus collected diamond,
រ heart, and two ruffs, defeating the contract.
#
The imaginative and cautious play is to finesse the seven of diamunds at the first trick! East

But mothers have complained for years that the in-betweens were the forgotten years and it was alinost impossible to buy smart, inexpensive styles for the teenager and her younger sister.
The newly formed Teenage Group of manufacturers is starting to All this fashion gap, and more London stores, I am glad to say, are now opening special departments for these age groups.
Teenagers now even have their own small couture house in a London mews, where pretty young styles can be made to Bt difficult measurements.
THE PERFECT STYLE
↑ Eva Melova has sketched (above) two of these youth- ful dresses, both Incorporating the latest fashion trends. The girl with her back turned is wearing a washable shantung dress, with the long bodyline and a deep-pleated skirt, and her friend has grey and white stripes, with a Emali rosebud design and the new Empire waistline,
From the pretty collection of teenage hats they have chosen a broderie anglaise "coolie," with guipure edging, and, a nylon straw cap. with knitted wool edging, the perfect style for the girl who wears a "ponytail" hairdo.
