CITY WELCOMES
OUT-OF-TOWNERS
MANY REMAIN HERE AFT
ER FOURTH CELE
BRATION
Savannah had al the air of a
convention city yesterday, but with
out the convention. A host of visitors
remaining over the week-end after
celebrating the Fourth here, added to
hundreds more whocame to the city
for frolic at the nearby pleasure re
sort.s crowded local hotels and room
Ing places to capacity.
All ocal hotels were turning away
guests last night and Saturday, with
rooming houses absorbing some of
the over flow, but many visitors hav
ing to return home.
Theweather Sunday was ideallc,
with the maximum temperature 93,
a welcome relief from the much hot
ter recordings of the past week. In
all probability, showers forecasted for
this afternoon by the weather bureau
will bring even cooler temperatures
locally.
TALES IN TIDBITS
The American League race is not
ended . . . given an even break in
luck the Red Sox can win the pen
nant . . . Wesley Ferrell is bn? of
the greatest competitors the '»?.me
ever saw (and that goes for on
Man BcKinnity, too) . . . New ■> k
is a mighty good ball club.
Who says so? Why, Joe Cronin,
manager of the expensive Tom Yaw
key entry. In a casual hotel room con
versation in Cleveland the other
day, Joe discussed intimately the do
ings of his ball club. Listen to Joe:
“We started off all right. Grove
was unbeatable. The club was hit
ting. I stuck my thumb into one
and had to sit on the sidelines, but
McNair stepped out and played great
ball for us, and I wasnt missed so
much. Then Grove hurt a finger,
and it threw him off stride. Heinie
Manrsh broke a finger, too, and
now he’s out.
Dusty “Loosens Up”
“One of our young pitchers, Jim
Henry, was pitching fine ball and he
came down with a bad sore throat.
We’re sitting in the dressing room
one day and Dusty Cooke begins to
pull up his knees to ‘loosen up.’ He
‘loosened up’ a few ligaments and
had to sit on the bench at a time
when he was playing the greatest
ball of his career.
“On this road trip west the only
thing that hasn't happened is a rail
road wreck. Johnny Marcum loses
a 1 to 0 ball game in Chicago on a
freak bunt. We drop two ball games,
by one run each, and one of the
games is won by a handle hit, the
other by a looping pop back of first
base that the hitter breaks his bat
on.”
“No, we're fighting. This club
has got plenty of that all right. We’ll
still be heard from. Wait until that
series begins Tuesday (June 30) in
New York. You’ll see that we still
have something to say about the
pennant.
“Discouraged? Not a bit. Take
Wes Ferrell, for instance. He’s work
ing out of turn on the road because
we can’t keep him out of there. Talk
about your old-time pitchers working
every third day—Ferrell wants to
pitch all the time. If he gets beat,
he storms, and wants to walk right
back to the box next day and show
’em. The rest of the boys are pull
ing right with him. We haven't got
any ‘lose with a smile’ boys on this
team”
Were the Yankees playing a trifle
over their heads?
“No, the Yankees aren’t playing
over their heads. That’s the team
we’ve got to beat, and Joe Di Mag
gio has made ’em Just that much
tougher. Say, have you seen him?
What a ball player!”
Very true! A fine ball player. And
from a fine part of the country, too!
That sends Joe off the subject of
baseball entirely. He’s a Californian.
And have you seen Phil Bru
baker fight? That was a tough one
he dropped to Sharkey, wasn’t it. Ex
perience beats youth again! But say.
suppose Max Baer (another native
son) beats Brubaker of Sharkey. Can
Baer get back up to the top by Sep
tember?”

Contract
■ Bridge
VHEN NOT TO PULL TRUMPS
AS OPPOSED to the two occasions
.hen declarer should at once pull
trumps, either by leading them or by
forcing a defender to ruff an estab
lished side suit, as detailed last Wed
nesday, there are three kinds of hold
ings when declarer as positively must
not pull trumps before he has ac
complished another purpose. The first
of such types is as illustrated by the
hand shown below. Dummy's long
suit must be led before trumps are
pulled, or declarer will be unable to
obtain enough discrads of losers to
fulfill a game contract.
Bidding went: south, 1-Heart:
North, 1-Spade; South 2-Hearts;
North, 3-Heirts; South, 4-Hearts.
The opening lead was the 4 of dia
monds. Declarer's Ace won. At once
he led a spade. West’s K took the
trick. West led a low trump. Declar
er’s K won. South's last spade was
led. East’s Ace won.
East led back a low spade, obliging
declarer to niff high. Then he pull
ed trumps in two eads, leaving dum
my in. Two rounds of winning spades
were taken. On them South let go a
losing diamond and one club, but he
finally had to give defenders a club
trick. Declarer should have pulled
trumps after he had deprived defend
ers of one of their high space honors,
then he could have discarded all
minor suit losers on dummy’s three
good spades. While he could not af
ford to lead trumps before dislodging
one high spade honor, he need not
have waited until both high honors
had been pulled. That error cost
South a trick. West s lead of a trump
when he won his spade trick also
was foolish. He should have again led
a diamond, effectually preventing the
chance of declarer making 5-odd.
It should be noted that defenders
cannot defeat the contract by leading
trumps three times—making an open
ing heart lead then repeating that
strategy when West and when East
enter with their top spaces. That sort
of strategy will surely give declarer
5-odd, as defenders will be gooa
suit, insuring declarer’s ability to rfv
enough to establish dummy’s long
card his one loser in diamonds and
his two losers in clubs on dummy’s
three long spades, provided declarer’s
establishes that suit, starting to do
so the first time either he or dummy
wins a trump trick. •
An opening lead of clubs will have
the same effect as an opening lead oi
diamonds, provided declarer uses the
same tactics of establishing spades as
rapidly as possible. All he need lose
are three tricks in the black suits.
The next type of hand will be shown
on Monday.

ows, aged persons war veterans, mi

SAVANNAH DAILY TIMES, MONDAY, JULY 6, 1936 <
All Os Us
In the midst of a heated argument, '
I opened my mouth w'ide. raised my
voice and began: ,
"I may be mistaken, but—”
And before I could say another
word, right in the middle of my in

crying:
“You May be mistaken? Wait a '

TRAINING FOLK
FOR MARRIAGE
SCHOOLS SHOULD TAKE
RESPONSIBILITY, SAYS
EDUCATOR
By GARY C. MYERS, PH. D.
Head Department Parent Education
Cleveland College, Western
Reserve University
THERE ARE many organizations
engaged in parent education. Th?
one which aims to help co-ordinate
all of them so as to work together
most effectively is the National Coun
cil of Parent Education. Its director
is Dr. Ralph P. Bridgeman.
Any organization seeking advice on
procedure or literature in regard to
parent education can get it free by
writing to Director Bridgeman. 60
I East Forty-second street New York
City.
A member of this organization my
self, I recently lunched with Dr.
Bridgeman when I asked him what
the place cf the schools of tomorrow
I will be in parent education. His re
j ply, in part, was about like this:
“Long ago the trades and profes
sions in which a man earned his liv
ing were learned through apprentice
ship . . . Today apprenticeship has
been displaced by vocational and per
sonnel education in the schools.
“In the past girls and boys (to a
certain extent) have Earned the arts
and techniques of family life and par
enthood in their own homes. But the
home is becoming less and less ef
fective as a means for learning these
responsibilities.
"Reasons: Fewer and fewer homes
have children of different ages so
that the older may learn by helping
in the care of the younger,, and the
younger helping in the care of their
nieces and nephews . . . High schools
keep young people away frem home
for long hours. Recreation is centered
at some place outside the home. When
young people get jobs they commute
long distances, or even move into a
di?tant city.
Family Lase Changes
"Patterns of family life are chang
ing rapidly from generation to gen
eration. What was once an accept
able way of caring for children, with
growth of knowledge, has been super
seded by a better way.
“Mothers want to do more things
nowadays . . . having less time with
their adolescent children . . .. Many
parents nowadays are perplexed by
changing standards and the new dif
ficulties under which they must bring
up their children: uncertainty of in
come. commercialized recreation and
the like . . . Therefore, it is probable
that there will be even less learning
from one’s own parents in the futcre.
“Wro wall take responsibility for
the preparation of young pecple for
the responsibilities of marriage fam
ily life and parenthood? , . The
' schools. And the schools have not
■ yet wicely embraced this opportunity.
“There is no grtater challenge fas
' ing the American education today
than the need cf young peeople for
preparation for family life, marriage
and parenthood.”
