I
ochle, straight or auction? A. D.
Books on pinochle are on the mar
ket, but none OF them Is accepted as
an authority. House rules would pre-
vail In this case, although l always
play the bidder goes out.

]. P. N:
A claims that in a game of draw
poker. after discarding cards and
required to except a card that turns
face up. B says that one cannot
accept it? Who is right2 VIII.
The up-to-date game calls for a
player to accept amy and all cards
dealt to him, whether face up or not.
The old way you couldn't accept a
turned-up card whether you wanted
to or not.
]. p. NJ:
am anxious to become a boxer
and would like you to tell me where
l could learn how to box in Newark,
and, further, would like you to tell
me what / should do. I am about 155
pounds and healthy and strong.
j. C.
Have talk with Gus Troxler at
the Central Institute or go and see
John Metzger at the National Turn
Verein. Patronize all the boxing
shows you can afford and box when
ever you get an opportunity. Great
boxers are born, not made. Young
Weinert is an example.

In four-handed game of pinochle
A takes in a trick and follows with
card. B follows and c, before put
ting on his card, asked to See the
last trick. d says, cover the trick
first. H. H.
c has no right to look at the last
trick, though some players are very
courteous in this respect, and will
even allow their opponents to take a
sly peek into the hands.

]. P. NJ:
In a game of three handed pinochle,
auction, A is 95 and bids 10; B melds
up to SO and c melds out but must
take a trick (house rules). A does
not make his 10 and goes up. B takes
in enough points to make 100 before
C gets his trick Who counts out
first, c or B? H. L. E.
I would say that the count should,
begin at the left of the dealer in
case like that. A being the bidder,
naturally would have first count and
on his failure to go out the count
would then be up to whose turn 1t
was to count first. c was the first
to go out, but needed trick, and B
also went out before the hand WIS
played The way / would decide such
a question would be for the men to
count left to right. I know this de-
cision will stir up some discussion,
but this is the view I take of the
play.
J.P. N:
If a certain article made up of sew
eral parts is jointly and WIDELY pro-
tected by patients would any i'm
provement on any of these separate
parts be considered an infringement?
P. KUHNER, JR..
Consult a lawyer for the answer of
this question.
J.P. N:
Can landlord be held responsible
for a ceiling falling and injuring a
member of a family? The tenant had
previously warned the landlord on
the condition of the ceiling and re-
pairs had not been made following
these warnings. j. L. MARITIME.
j. P. NJ:
Does a detective have to possess
extradition papers to arrest a man
who has committed crime in New
ark and has gone to New York, il
the warrant has been taken out in
Newark and served by a detective
from Newark? Can a detective arrest
a man from New York in Newark, or
must he secure a detective from New
York to serve the warrant.
w. H. B.
A Newark officer can request the
New York authorities to hold the Gull
prit and then take out extradition
papers. A Newark officer can only
arrest the man in Newark.
What price would I receive for fine
chicken feathers and where could 1
sell them? d. J.
That's ticklish question, Dave.
Consult the advertising columns of
the Star.

piece.
