The slaying of a great opera) iz tenor before 20,000 witnesses the famous Bollywood Bowl forms the unusual motif of the story. and we see Morris in the role of the young detective who, with the aid of Madge Evans, as daughter of a scientist, solves the mystery. Miss Evans' most recent succes

BRIDGE NOTES

I Turn Comforter

By My Culbertson

In my role of bridge commer- tator, to my sorrow, I find more. to criticise than to praise. It is a distinct pleasure, therefore, when, instead of castigating some player for his stupidity. 1 lam able conscientiously to com- fort him by pointing out that his error really was not the fatal fea- ture of the hand

Mr. M. L Slack of Whitewater, Wis, writes me in a spirit of deep humility, confessing that he "pul: led an awful boner" in the defence: of a doubled game contract. Well, I can't stultify myself by saying his play was correct but, perhaps, he will be comforted by my point-i ing out that it probably had no bearing on the final result.
