Museum Plans for 'California' Room Of Interest to Lugonla parlor, Native Daughters of the Golden West, will be plans of Los Angeles County Museum for recreating a room with authentlo furnishings of Early California days.

Dr. William A. Bryan, director of the museum, ivhlch Is continually adding California relics to Its collection, told Hol-ywood parlor of Native Daughters Df these plans at a luncheon hon-arlng Florence Danforth Boyle, grand president of the order. Mrs. Boyle was greeted here last week by Lugonla parlor.

Dr. Bryan said "One of the most valuablo and Interesting possessions In the museum la a baby's dress, the material for which waB spun, woven Into cloth, and sewed on a journey to California via the Isthmus." Among the guests of honor introduced by Mrs. Lellnnd Atherton Irish, mistress of ceremonies, was Mrs. Lilly O'Rolchling Dyer, who BRIDGE By THE FOUR ACES (David Burnstine, Merwin D. Maler, Oswald Jacoby, Howard Schenken, world's leading team-of-four, inventors of the system that has beaten every other system in existence.) HIT-OR MISS TACTICS The value of cue-bidding to locate vital control cards was never demonstrated more forcibly than in one of the qualifying rounds of the recently completed Eastern bridge championships.

The event was a team-of-four, with each separate board constituting one match. The hand under discussion was bid to a small slam in nearly every in stance, and when the leader won the first two tricks, the declarer would invariably complain of bad luck rather than admit poor North, Dealer North-South vulnerable A A 9 6 7 0 A A 4 A 6 0 5 4 2 9 7 5 4 3 2 E. 8 7 8 5 3 2 10 9 7 6 10 8 4 10 5 3 2 10 9 4 0 3 A The bidding: North East South West 10 Tasa 14 Pass A Tasg $4 pass Pasg Pass At one table the biddine was quite proner un to a certain noint. North opened with one diamond, nis partner responded with one spade and North then lumned to four spades, a slam invitation showing a powerful hand with strong spade support. South thereupon im mediately jumped to the slam, and when West opened the ace and king of hearts, declarer merely remarked.

"Well, with anv other opening we would have made it." isotn partners seemed to regard it as unfortunate that South held the ace of clubs rather than the ace of hearts. With the latter card, of course, a slam could not have been defeated. The hit-or-miss tactics employed were unnecessary. After North's jump to game, declarer should have cut-bid at five clubs, showing the ace of that suit. North would then have simnlv signed off with five spades, since from his hand there were two los ne hearts unless South held second-round control of that suit.

South should of course pass five spades. South's reasoning was that even If the opponents held both the ace and king of hearts, there was a good chance that that suit would not be opened unless the leader held the ace. We contend that this reasoning was fallacious and that the odds were at least two to one that hearts would be opened. The only combination of cards that would probably prevent West from leading a heart would be if he held the king, his partner the ace. On the other hand, if West held the ace or the ace and kincr.

or onlv small cards in hearts, he would probably open them, so that the gamble on getting a lucky opening was very poor.
