Much of the improvement has been caused by repeal. The leading hotels of the borough report that their earnings have been appreciably increased in the, restaurant anil banquet departments since the death of prohibition. "Business has improved considerably." Paul M. Wade, manager of the Towers, told The Eagle today. "Banquet business and room rentals have both increased and our business as a whole has shown a fine upturn.

Business Vp a Third "We have no exact figures on hand at the moment, but roughly I would say that we have shown a 33 percent increase over last year." At the St. George business was reported improved and room rentals were said to be steadily increasing. Burton F. White, manager of the Bossert, reports that the grill room there is doing better than even five years ago, and cites repeal as the principal cause for the pick-up. Restaurant Profits Gain "Our room business is about the same," he stated, "but since we are a residential hotel our business is not a good indication of the number of transients being accommodated in Brooklyn.

Our restaurant has shown a tremendous return in gross earnings since repeal, however. "This year we have had some very fine nights in our grill room, better even than in 1932 and as far back as five years ago. Last Winter the grill room was not open, and that in itself explains how great the increase has been. While the sale of liquors increases operating expense, it also increases profits, and I believe this alone was responsible for our fine business increases in this department."

WEDNESDAY AND FRIDAIf what would you ICE CREAM be having on St. Patrick's Day PISTACHIO New Decks Create Odd Distributions at Guild Duplicate Matches By ROBERT WARBl'KG Bridge Editor of The Eagle. Duplicate bridge with some weird hands held the renter of the stage at The Eagle Building at 305 Washington last night when approximately 350 fans participated in the contests for top score trophies which are given the winners as a mark of excellence.

The games are held each Monday and Wednesday evening as part of the program of the Long Island Bridge League, an organization of more than 1.000 bridge fans, the activities of which are conducted under the auspices of The Eagle. Of all those who participated in the 14 contest sections that accommodated the many players, no pair was able to equal the score recorded by the Misses M. Holzman and L. Wicselthier who topscored against one of the strongest fields of the evening by registering 77 out of a possible 110 match points for an average of 70 percent in section 9. Other High Scores High scores were also registered by Joseph Raylson-Leon Leshay, 75'i; Mr.

and Mrs. Walter Brown, 73, and Edna Miller-Louis Lipschitz, All of these pairs won their contests. In sections 3 and 4, the contesting pairs spent an exciting evening. In both these sections the players were using new decks of cards in the duplicate boards and they failed to adequately shuffle the new decks. The results were some weird distri butions of the cards.

Out of the 44 deals which were TJlaved in both these sections, only four of them failed to contain a hand with a singleton or void suit. And the misfits had the players worried most of the time. Following is an example of how the cards were running The Hand A 7-4-3 Q-8-3 A-Q-10-9-8-4-2 A None A A-K-G A-K-9-S-4 0 K-6-5 A 8-5 WORTH A J-10-9-8 J-7-3 1 i SOOTH' AK-J-9-6-2 A Q-3-2 V) 10-7-6-2 None A A-Q-10-7-4-3 North-South are vulnerable and West deals. All the scores registered on the hand were the result of undertricks by one side or the other. At the first table North got as high as 30 and after a disgusted look at the dummy, went down 3 tricks for a 450 point loss.

Next, South landed In 3A with the same result after registering the same amount of disgust at the vagaries of the deal. When the board was transferred to the next table East, playing a 3 N. T. contract was able to take only 6 tricks and from that point on, the remainder of the tables witnessed West failing to make a contract. Another Grief Hand Another hand that spelled grief to the North-South players found North with 6 spades and a singleton diamond and South with 7 diamonds and a singleton spade and the balance of both suits massed in the adverse hands.

Deal 5, played in the first contest, resulted in a stand-off among all the contesting teams. At every table the final contract was the U. erne GUESS i Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Knopf 55'j Sevmour Kuplnn-Al Brodsky 54 1 a Mi.

March 15 Damage of $150,000 was caused last night by a fire that swept a stable at the Belmont park race track, bringing death to eight race horses, including Sun Patch, 3-year-old brother of the famed Kerry Patch. Kerry patch, who won the $90,000 Belmont Futurity In 1932, was one of the two animals saved by Jack Mccormick, trainer, before flames blocked entrance to the structure.

The other animal rescued was a filly. The fire, which occurred at 7 p.m., threw spurts of flames visible for miles and attracted hundreds of spectators by motor car as well as volunteer fire departments from Elmont, Franklin Square, Floral Park, New Hyde Park and Stewart Manor. The origin of the fire was not known, but an electric wire ending in the stall that quartered Kerry Patch was found to have been charged, and firemen thought it possible that It made a contact and threw off sparks that ignited hay. Sun Patch, like Kerry Patch, was owned by Lee Rosenberg of Great Neck, a Manhattan cotton broker. who also owned four of the de stroyed 2-year-ld colts.

The other two race horses were Heleser and Yelby, owned by Lester Roeblng of Garden City. kA Delightful Surprise Nature has given cranberries that unusual flavor so they can be used in.many extraordinary -ways.
