JACOBY ON BRIDGE
Jacoby Transfer Gives The Word
By OSWALD JACOBY
ORTIN'S one no-trump open- ing was standard in spite of ble five card club suit, South's two diamond response was the Jacoby transfer and showed a heart suit or at least five cards.
North's rebid to two hearts was automatic and South bld three ele. In the JTB system the Hid of a second suit by res- ponder is a force to game ond naturally enough it shows a pretty goodl hand and a twa ruiter of sorts,
Ivan Erdon of Los Angeles who sat North looked over his hand carefully, He only held 16 high card points but they were almost ali nces and kings. Also he had just the right cards for a club alam.
Ivan also knew just how lo get to the slam If there was one.
He bid four no-trump. In the JTD this bid is Black-

[OST of us know how to buy a sweater, a dress, or a good
tweed coat.
Let's Talk Furs Ma
by ANNE SCOTT-JAMES
Few of us know how to buy furs. One just doesn't get the regular experience.
I have been scouting round the fur world Anding out what you can get for under £100. (If you're looking for wild minks. you and the wild man who buys it for you must sort it out far yourselves.)
I FIND THAT musquash is universally agreed to make the znost practical, good-looking tur coats for around £100. Most are dyed and look stranded, and are classically cut. Ask for Canadian or American musquash,
THAT beaver or embrus lamb are also hard-wearing, and con be styled more elegantly. Prices about 35 to 50 guincas.
THAT is a good idea to buy a for which is really cheap and not meant to be herd-wearing, like dyed coney, and to expect the same life from it us you would from a tweed coat. Scal-dyed concy looks smart, costs, say, 25 guineas. Look for neat, almost Invisiblo scams,
THAT you can have mink at this price-in smallish quantities. You can get a stole of skins which are female and unstranded, but of good colour and quality, for about £70-like the one in the picture.
Or a mink tie from 20 guinens upwards.
THAT moleskin is a fur that takes tailors snapplly, but the skins are so small that you can't expect long wear.
THAT pony-skin is commended for the country. A coat costa about 75 guineas.
THAT for super glamour, you can't beat a white fox sole. Prices from 50 guineas up, according to size.
THAT you're mad if you buy at a shady furrier. Anything can happen. Go to a store, or a small shop with a good name.
