First Lady Honored
For Interracial
Good Will By Group
PHILADELPHIA, Pa.— (ANP)-
The second annual Youth Center
award for “splendid work- in the
development of interracial good
will" was given to Mrs. Franklin
D. Roosevelt here Sunday by a
group representing Philadelphia's
Negro youth center. Mrs. Roosevelt,
who came- here to accept the
award, made a tour of the center
before the brief convocation, and
followed it with a visit to the Rich-
ard Allen homes, a low-cost hous-
ring project for Negroes.
The First Lady’s hosts on her
tour of the project were Mr. and
Mrs. Sylvester Stevenson, who wel-
comed her with their two children,
Louise, 8, and Sylvester Jr., 6.
Introduced at the center convoca-
tion by John B. Kelley, former
Democratic city chairman, Mrs.
Roosevelt told the group:

Contract
Bridge
By CHAS. THEO WHITE
By CHARLES THEO. WHITE
Article No. 65
THE STUFF THAT PLAYS
ARE MADE OF
Really fine plays in Contract
Bridge—those that mark the EX-
PERT player — generally resolve
themselves into “eliminations,"
“squeezes” and forced lead plays.
An elimination play requires the
elimination of one or more—gen-
erally two—suits from the hands of
both the Declarer and the dummy,
and then the throwing in of an
opponent to compel him to make
a favorable lead, or lead INTO A
TENACE holding.
The principle of “squeeze plays”
is quite well known, and is based
upon the working of the TIME FAC-
TOR. There are actually 13 tricks
that may be made in a hand at
Bridge if all the good cards could
be cashed, but there are also “13
leads"-or TIME UNITS—the use
of which may change the entire
structure of a hand. Thus, some
good trick may never be taken be-
cause you are deprived from get-
ting BACK TO THEM.
The third type of expert play is
the FORCED LEAD, which re-
quires that a CHOSEN OPPONENT
be stripped of a suit, or suits, and
then thrown in the lead with an
already known entry-card—leading
into a TENACE, calculated to give
the declarer an EXTRA trick at a
given TIME.
The hand below is an illustration
of the second type of expert play,
discussed . above, wherein a very
pretty triple-squeeze is developed.

The eventual contract is six no-
trump, played by south, although a
contract of six diamonds would be
easier to fulfill, BUT, six no-trump
will produce a higher score; there-
fore. the N.T. is more desirable
should one be playing duplicate
bridge.
West should open with his club
ten, which will be won in the closed
hand and a club returned at once.
West will' cover with his Ace and
lead a third round of clubs, which
will be taken in the closed hand
with the King, leaving West with
an established club. This is not—as it
may appear--a bad play, but part
of the careful plan of making the
hand. Four diamond tricks will now
be run, a small heart being dis-
opponents will be "squeezed" for
discards, East being the first to
feel the effects. Should he part with
a SPADE, it would establish the
entire spade suit in the South hand.
As South had opened with a spade
bid. East decides it is safer to part
with a heart. WEST dropped a
small spade. A small spade is now
led from the dummy, and South
followed with three rounds—which
applied "the squeeze" to the WEST
hand. The fact that south still held
A CLUB made any defense impos-
sible on the last lead of the spades,
because to discard a heart would
establish ALL dummy’s hearts, and
the discard of a club was equally
as fatal. The result was that South
makes his contract. It could not have
been made had he not realized the
possibilities of the “squeeze" and
the tremendous value of his “los-
ing” club.
It isn’t TABOO any more
for girls to know these truths
Girls today can be grateful that
some subjects are discussed more
frankly than they used to be.

Negro Women Waves
WASHINGTON, D. C.—(ANP)-
The navy department is going ahead
with its plans for the recruitment
of thousands of women in the new-
ly formed and authorized WAVES,
women’s auxiliary to the navy.
Seeking an even larger number
than have applied, no definite in-
formation has come from the de-
partment concerning the enlistment
of Negro women in this branch of
the service.
A brilliant future is being’paint-
ed for the women who enter this
service with commissions as officers
for the specially selected and
trained women.
Enlistments for the present are
for home duty only, but if the
war should be prolonged, there will
be provisions for foreign service as
well.

Kegro Workers
Efficiency And
Loyalty Cited
Los Angeles.—The intergration
of Negro shipyard workers into
skilled and .semi-skilled occupa-
tions was termed “a splendid ex-
ample of democracy in action”
this week by spokesman for the
California Shipbuilding Corp ra-
tion.
In a formal statement, issued in
connection with the forthcoming
launching of the BOOKER. T.
WASHINGTON, first Liberty
Ship to be named for a Negro, the
spokesman declared:
“Our personal records reflect
the same high standard of of i-
ciency and loyalty among our ap-
proximately 500 Negro employees
as obtains in the balance of our
yard force.
“Negroes are employed in the
various crafts throughout the yard
such as welding, shipfitting, chip-
ping. buning, and painting.
"W believe that this is a splen-
did example of democracy in ac-
tion and bespeaks the morale of
the men who have helped to lift
the California Shipbuilding Cor-
poration into top place among the
Nation’s merchant ship builders.’’
The huge California shipyard is
now a booming plant on a site'

No information as to the eligibil-

School Days Again
—and I am reminded to remind
you that "it is your solemn duty
to get behind the School Lunch
Program. There are many different
methods of handling the problem
of noon lunches for school children,
but there is hardly a se up any-
where that woud not profit by
some good old rashioned cotperd-
tion from you and you and you.
So Our School
■—has an A-1 lunch room, the fa-
cilities are adequate, the dietician
is efficient, and you are making
enough dough to give Johnny his
lunch money and forget it. Fine
for you, fine for Johnnys, fine for
the school. There is something still
for you to do. Does Johnny know
what he should eat for lunch? Can
he choose a balanced meal from the
steam tables without personal at-
tention from the dietician? Be sive
that he knows what to eat. He
should get one third of his day’s
food supply at noon time and you
should teach him to choose his
lunch properly. So much for you
and Johnny.
The Next Housewife
—however, does not live in the
big impersonal and efficient city.
Your School Lunch Program is
probably crying for your help. The
Federal Government now spends a-
bout 166 million dollars per year
on various types of food programs.
In some areas, Negro children are
not reaping adequate benefits from
these programs due to the indif-
ference of their parents. There are
some simple requiremtns each
school is asked to fulfill before a
school con enjoy the advantages of
the School Lunch Program. It simp-
ly is not fair to let your children
go without these benefits because
you are not cooperating. We do a
lot of squawking about what we
don’t get, and I’m not saying we
don’t have a right to squawk. But
I do say that we are not willing
to go halfway sometimes.
During the Peak Months
—of the 1942 school year, more
than 6 million children in 95.000
of the Nation's schools ate school
lunches made partly from foods do-
nated directly by the U. S. Dept,
of Agriculture as another part of
the Government's effort to get more
and better meals for people. Com-
munities that sponsor these school
lunch programs often supplement
the free food distributed by the
Government with food from coop-
ative gardens and from canning
projects. Even if you are not doing
anything so noteworthy as that, the
lunch room has to be outfitted with
screens, dishes, towels, chairs, ta-
bles. etc. Get in there and pitch,
Mrs. Housewife. If you are won-
dering how you can make a solid,
worthwhile contribution to your
community, here’s your chance.
Oft Times
—the overworked teacher scrapes
together all the necessaries, only to
| find that a cook cannot be certi-
fied for some reason or the other.
Here’s another chance. Can't you
give an hour or so of your time
on one day per week to help get |
the food cooked? I know dozens of
women who do, free gratis, and
they are all busy women with
houses and children, husbands, and .
dogs, cats, gardens, etc. at attend to.

Farmers Urged To
Pick And Handle
Cotton With Care
College Station.—Texas cotton
farmers and handlers were urged
today by the Texas USDA’ War
Board to be extra careful in pick-
ing and handling of this year’s
cotton crop;
“Careful picking and handling
of this year’s cotton crop is of A-1
importance because of the recird
need for high-grade and long sta-
ple cotton in this country and the
drop in demand for low-grade and
short staple cotton,” the War
Board advised members of county
boards.
Heavy military and civilian de-
mand for cotton textiles have re-
sulted in a greater need for high
grade and long staple cotton than
ever before by domestic mills, the
board declared. In addition, widen-
ed market premiums and discounts
■ make it much more profitable to
guard against unnecessary lower-
ing of grade.
Variation in the care of handl-
ing cott n often can raise or low-
er the quality of a bale by one or
two grades, the board’s statement
continud. Since grade and staple
premiums and discounts have wid-
ened so much, present market dif-
ferentials work more to the ad-
vantage of the higher grades and
longer lengths than at any time
during the past 10 or 15 years.

Victory
Fresh Cabbage
Is Featured
As Victory Food
Retailers and other merchants in
certain North Central and Eastern
Seaboard States will feature fresh
cabbage as a Victory Food Special
during the period September 28
through October 10. The area in
which this merchandising drive will
be conducted includes the Eastern
Seaboard States north of Florida
and all states north of Tennessee
and east of the Mississippi and Mis-
souri Rivers. •
Storekeepers cooperating with the
Agricultural Marketing Administra-
tion will list fresh cabbage as a
Victory Food Special in their ad-
vertising and display material to
focus consumer attention on abun-
dant supplies available on most
markets in this area. Homemakers,
restauranteurs, and others will be
urged to make full use of cabbage
during this period in order to pre-
vent waste and to assure the har-
vesting and marketing of the en-
tire fall cabbage crop.
The principal kind of cabbage on
most markets during the latter part
of September and early October
will be the domestic type. Ordi-
narily, large quantities of this kind
of cabbage are used in the manu-
facture of sauerkraut for sale most-
ly in tin cans. Because tin is need-
ed to beat the Axis, none will be
available this season for packing
kraut for civilian use. While quan-
tities of kraut will be put up in
wooden containers for bulk sale to
consumers, the total amount to be
packed in this manner Is not ex-
pected to be great enough to make
up for the supply that would other-
wise be packed if tin cans could be
had for this purpose. More fresh
cabbage will have to move onto
consumer markets, or else be left
unharvested in the fields. - ,
This season, because of the favor-
able growing conditions, cabbase
has grown into large size heads.
The usual small size heads will be
difficult to obtain. Large or small,
a head of cabbage is an excellent
food.

of nature’s most concent at
foods—will be a Victory Food Spec
ial November 9 through November
21, the Department of Agriculture
said today.
Domestic tree nuts were desig-
nated as a Victory Food Cpecial by
Roy F. Hendrickson, Agrioultura'
Marketing Administrator, at the
request of interested producer
groups, to focus consumer atten-
tion on a ner-record supply eque
to 300 million pounds of inshelle
nuts. Full use of this concentrate
food as an integral part of th'
menu will aid in conserving and
making more effective use of the
Nation s total wartime food supply.
During the designated period, re-
tailers and other merchants through-
out the country are authorized to
feature domestic tree nuts as a
Victory Food Special in advertising
and display material.
English walnuts represent more
than half of the total supply of
domestic tree nuts, followed by
pecans, almonds and filberts. These
four are distributed to markets in
practically all parts of the Nation.
Export markets, which absorbed an
average of about 13 million pounds
in pre-war years, are now practi-
cally closed because of war condi-
tions.
Consumers will be encouraged te
include nuts as a basic p»-' eir
menus rather than e-
ment. These nuts cor.
teins and fata, as
being
good sources of some minerals and
vitamins.
