Original Toronto Star caption: In Bridge; the ladies play it cool. The City of Toronto Duplicate Bridge Championships are going on at the Royal York hotel this weekend; opening yesterday with the ladies' and men's pairs. Morrey B. Manilla (top left) scratches his head as he ponders a play; and Max Morris (top right) seems to be letting off steam as cigar smoke curls from his mouth but Mrs. Corky Miller (bottom left) and Merna Winthrope (bottom right) are studies in coolness as they play their cards. The tournament ends tomorrow.
