Beware Of The Summer Hat Trap
THE
Says EILEEN ASCROFT
THE most glamorous way of greeting spring is in one of the new frilly feminine hats. But do not be fooled by these delightful bita of tulle nonsense that look like lemon meringue plea. Worn ab- solutely atraight on the head, they look delicate, exciting and' gay, But give them the tilt and the whole effect is lost,
To show you what I mean I asked blonde model Shirley Worthington to give you a demonstration. In the large picture you see Shirley looking like every husband's dream girl.
The other two pictures are not so good. We wore our hats like this last year to show the hairline and with those tiny asymmetrical caps it was just fine. But with this summer's grander, more im- portant hats, it is disastrous.
However attractive a hat may be, there are times NOT to wear It. The evening, I think, is one of them.
THE SMARTEST HEAD-DRESS A SMART hairstyle is better withou! decorations. Providing, of course, that it is shining and beautifully cut.
A London hairdresser showed me his new hairstyles for spring and summer smooth, elegant, practical and flattering. Then he proceeded to spoil the whole effect by the addition of headpieces of nylon for evening wear.
Line and shine were ruined at once. If a hairstyle is right, it is the smartest head covering you can wear for evening, If it is wrong, then is the time to resort to artificial head coverings,

start off with three rounds clubs, and South is put to the test at the third trick.
If South ruffs the third club with a low trump. West over- rufs. South ruffs with a high trump, a trump trick is set up for West, South must eventually lose heart trick as well, and thins he is defeated.

South's correct play is to dis- card a heart on the third round of clubs, He is sure to lose a heart trick sooner or later, and It is far better to give it up in this painless way than to lose a trump trick in n foolish struggle.
After South has discarded heart, the defenders are power~ less. If Enst leads a fourth club, dummy can ruff with a low trump: (It does West no good to ruff with the 9 or 10, for dummy will overruff safely.) Declarer can then draw trumps and take his good tricks, It East leads anything but a club, it is even easier for declarer to drow all of the trumps and run the good tricks.
