A WINNING DEFENCE

by Bly Culbertron.

2

Although theoretically, the De- clarer in the play of a barid has a definite advantage in that he sees the Dummy hand, very often the defensive player has a tem porary advantage in that he has advance knowledge of the way certain sult is going to break.

When this is the case, he must try to take advantage of this in- formation before it is acquired by the Declarer, and thereby frustrate the Declarer's plans.

IRE MARRIAGE

DURING AUDIENCE AT VATICAN

While little credence is placed in the Paris report that ex-King Alfonso iof Spain is seeking an annulment from ex-Queen Victoria, it is recalled that a similar rumour was widely elevated when the then Spanish ruler visited the Vatican in 1926. Observers say that such a more now would in- pair Alfonso's hopes of ever regaining his throne. The marriage between the grand-daughter of Queen Victoria of England and Alfonso, who was born a king, took place 28 years ago, and was be- Lieved at the time to be the climax of a real romance.

"MEN IN WHITE"-QUEEN'S

"Men In White" now showing at the Queen's Theatre, is undoubt edly one of the most effective and taistinguished photoplays to reach

Clark Gable, in a memorable performance appears as Dr. Fer guson, the young "Interne who en lizes all the obligations of his profession but struggleh against the conflicting claims of the girl. he love. The girl, played by Myrna Loy soon comes to the rea- lization that a doctor so engross-- ed in his career has no time for love, with the result that the young interne is thrown into com- promising circumstances with one of the nurses in his hospital.
