early last week when the heavy
rains were on, the Hill orchard
was given, in , addition a further
thorough irrigation, wetting 'tho
ground down to- a depth, of two

thorough wetting, has resulted in a

dally the game that made him'
famous. I
l-'or Culbert.'ton has become m
master of contract, an expounder.
Ho seldom teaches, leaving that
for his disciples, including his
wife.
Yet It was only eight years
ago that Culbortson, a mlld-man-ne'.ed
young man with a Husslan
accent, walked into the exclusive
Knickerbocker "Whist club.
The club numbered among Its
.members experts and writers on
enrd games.. After ho had played
several rubbers of bridge, this un
known "foruigner'. informed his
fellow playerw they had a lot to
learn about the game.
They ignored him as an upstart.
Now he '.ft one of their heroes.
Kor Culbortson is the matinee
idol of bridge. Women bring his
I books to tournaments and lec
tures to be autographed. Thous
ands follow his forcing system tf
contract bidding.
Moreover, ho Is one of the
youngest of tho mawters. Tall,
slender, impeccably : dressed, ho
moves among tho smart set oi
Park avenue. Not only is he
winner of tho Vanderbilt Ameri
can , championship cup, but he is
a friend of the family
Ilellevlng women to be better
bridge players than men because
men nre so conceited they won't
take advice he attributes- 90 per
cent of his success to his Wife,
his partner in tournaments.
It was Mrs. Culbortson who
started him on his career ns n
enrd export.
Despite his accent, Culbortson

American. He was born in the
oil fields of Itumania, son of n
CosHack's daughter and of nn
American mining engineer who
developed a Itussinn oil field In
the Caucasus.

ton to file a $4,000,000 claim in
behalf of his father's Caucasian
oil interests. Then ho sought n.
job in a small middle western
college ns Instructor In the social
sciences.
Meanwhile he met his future
bride across a bridge table. She
diverted his Interest to bridge,
game he had played badly since
his university days nt Geneva.1 Ho
