the second match, for the schwab trophy in 1933, was a more significant event, preceded by the usual brilliant culbertson publicity. played at selfridges, it was widely reported in the press and on newsreel, and was attended by many spectators. a large periscope was used so that spectators outside the playing-room could glimpse the players. play could also be followed on a massive electrical scoreboard ("the forerunner to bridgerama") in the palm court area. the most common partnerships were: britain: beasley & sir guy domville; george morris & percy tabbush; lady doris rhodes & graham mathieson. america: ely & josephine culbertson; theodore lightner & michael gottlieb. both teams sometimes paired the players differently.
