branch of the Oregon Short Line ives
form Buhl, Idaho to Nyssa, Oregon,
which extension would give railroad

would furnish homes for over $4,000
people; eventually add over one hum

than two million tons per annum, ac-
complish a complete stabiization and

ample water supply for all time to
come to the government Carey Act"
and private irrigation enterprises lying
west of American Falls and taking
water from the Snake river involving
an area of over 100000 acres.

would result in an investment of new
capital in the State of Idaho, aggre-
gazing, conservatively. fifty million dol
IsIs.
Fails projects produce at this time, ap-
proximately s2O,OOO,OOO of products per
aHnum. Apparently, then, the develop
ment of the Bruneau project would
add an equal amount if not more, to
the production value of agricultural
areas in the State of Idaho.
Conditions which led up to the Euro
pean war retarded activities on the

of war brought them to a stop until
the present time.
The present company, in addition to
storing the waste water of the Snake
river are reported to have planned
tapping the great body of water in
Lake Yellowstone by means of tun-
nel through the continental divide at
the south end of the lake.
Here are some essential facts con-
nected with this enterprise that every
,itizen of Idaho should know:
/. The project as now planned, will
contain 100000 acres. or approximately

Blow To Racetracks

The Maryland Court of Appeals last
Wednesday week delivered death
blow to horscracing and its promoters
in Southern Maryland, when Chief
Judge A. Hunter Poyd handed down
an opinion, in which his associates on
the bench concurred, declaring uncon-
,titutiona the act of the Legislature
permitting racing at the Bowie track,
IN Prince Georges county. The deci-
sion also affects the track at MARI
horo. where horse racing is conducted
to a lesser extent than at Bowie.
Racing on the Bowie track has been
permitted under the provisions Of a
license issued by the court officials of
Prince Georges county to the South
ern Maryland Agricultural Fair As
ISOLATION, which conducts the races.
The Court of Appeals, however,
rules the betting, pool-selling and
book making are not permissible, and
that if it was the Legislative intent to
exempt AGRICULTURAL Sdlr associations
from the provisions of the general
laws, then such provision should have
been incorporated in the Iaw that gave
the Southern Maryland Association
its existence.

tendency to use the minor suits for in
formative purposes.
Apart from the purely conventional
bid OF two originally, there are two sys-
TENS which are heard from more and
more every day, each designed to use the
clubs and diamonds solely for giving or
inviting Information.
One of these. and the simplest, is the
third hands increase of the original bid
without changing the suit, to indicate
that there is assisting strength in that
hand, in case the original bidder has
anything better up his sleeve The op-
portunity thus offered to the dealer 10

has already been dealt with in these
articles. but the idea has been carried
further. The basis of the system seems
to be that there should be at least as
good as king outside the suit first
named
A correspondent in Bethlehem, Pa,
G. NJ. Hohl, has this to say about It:
several months ago THE SUN sug-
gested that when dealer bids a minor
suit and second hand passes, II the
third hand has raise for the dealer,
!. e., AZ in attacking values, he should
reopen the bidding. so as to give the
dealer n chance to do better than a
minor suit.
we Detn IOlIOWlnR out
SUNS system OF valuation and bidding
strictly and have also tried TINS third
hand assist in the minor suits with ex-
ccllent results. What we count on Is
that the original bidder shall have ut
least an ace or king outside his sound
minor suit holding, but only two suits
stopped, so that unless the partner has a
hand much above average, game at no
trump would be impossible
Tn fourteen times that this bid was
used the dealers second bid has been
two no trumps twelve times and a major
suit the remaining two. or these four
teen attempts twelve have gone game,
one made the contract and one was set
for one trick
Although we fnd the original two
trick bid In minor suit very useful we
are rather conservative in using II and
have set minimum OF eight values for
the dealers hand, or seven for second
hand, when the dealer passes.
with regard to the system of values
advocated by THE SUN, taken altogether,
the result of a match may be of in
terest. Although we lost four of the
seven rubbers, we collected $50 in penal
ties. as against $50 that we lost, and
won out by 5S points. l enclose one of

This is the hand which illustrates
the use of the third hand assist on OUT

OHIO TRIUMPHS OVER
MICHIGAN MEN, 1873
Chick Harley Is Star for
Buckeye EieUen.
Special Despafch to TEE Sun.

ANN ARBoR, Mich, Oct. 25.-Michi-
gan's Western Conference football cham
pionship ambitions went glimmering this
afternoon when the Ohio eleven defeated
the Wolverines by 13 to 8. This was the
first victory the Ohio eleven ever has
scored against Michigan in football his
tory.
The Michigan eleven was outshone all
the way. the ball for the most part being
in Michigan territory during all four
quarters. Capt. Chic Harley was the
star of the game. Besides making a
forty yard run. lodging the entire Mich
igan team. for n touchdown. the crack
all-America halfback was a whirlwind
on defence. lie broke up every forward
pass attempted by Michigan.
Stinchcomb. all-West quarter, also
played brilliant game for Ohio, as did
Flower at right end.
Ohio made the first touchdown OF the
game in the first quarter, when Huffman

down. Harley kicked goal
Michigan scored its only points in the
game when Sparks made a difficult drop
kick goal from the As yard line in the
second period. Ohio came back strong
in the second half and scored another
touchdown.
Shortly after the half started Stinch-
comb made a false cross buck through
the left side OF the line for ten yards.
Harley got the ball on the next play, and
dodging the entire Michigan eleven ran
forty yards for the final score. He missed
the goal. The lineup:

HARVARD IS BUSY
WITH FALL SPORTS
Oarsmen, Harriers, Soccer and
Baseball Players All
Tune Up.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Oct. 25.-While
the Harvard varsity and freshman foot
ball squads are holding the centre OF
the athletic stage at Cambridge and
have turned the corner heading for the
last month OF their campaigns. the
Crimson's baseball candidates, oarsmen,
cross-country runners and soccer play
ers are making the most of the crisp
fall weather.
The ball players, more than twenty
for the varsity and almost as many
moro freshmen, have been drilling since
college opened. the freshmen stopping a
few days ago. The varsity squad also
would have pulled up stakes this week,
but a shift in head coaches doubtless
will mean that Capt. Bobby Emmons.
son of Harvard's 1894 varsity football
leader, will keep things moving until
cold weather sets in in earnest.
Jack Slattery, who succeeds Hugh
Duffy. and who has had experience as
member of elk major league teams and
recently has been successful as base
ball coach at Tufts, now is in charge
and is getting n line OH his material for
next year. Harvard for time hoped
to be able to engage Fred Mitchell. and
other men considered were Patsy Don"
ovsn, the International League manager
and Fred Tenney, former first baseman
Of the Bostons and the Giants, but Slat-
tery's showing at Tufts was big asset
for him.
Battery weakness was fatal for Har-
ward last spring. The team hit for more
than 800 for the season. but. FELTON,,
Hardell. johnson. Bullard and others
in the box. and Gammack, Blair and
Bond, catchers, were not good enough to
make a balance. Most of these battery
men will be available another year, but
Goode and Meehan. freshman pitchers,
and Murphy. a catcher, with Conlon,
former Exeter star. are expected to
make varsity places. Most of the out
field and infield regulars on the nine
will return.
While "Pooch" Donovan is busy train
ing the football team Eddie Farrell Is
in charge of the fall track work. Cross
country running Is attracting most Of
the track athletes. The varsity team
ran at Cornell to-day. There Is a big
field of freshmen barriers and these
are keeping at work. although the inter-
dormitory races have been held.
Bill Haines, rowing coach, ne~er has
had such a fall season as this There
are fifteen freshman dormitory crews
rowing from the Weld boat house, and
in about two weeks four crews from
each OF the freshman halls. Smith.
Standish and Gore, will hold a regatta
Not until after this Is finished will
Haines pick out the squad of freshman
oarsmen on whom to work during the
winter for the spring rowing.

Y dealt and bid a club, which A
passed. Counting his hand by modern
methods. has 3 values in diamonds
and In spades, but II he were hoping
to get clubs for trumps he would have
to allow for his weakness in that suit.
Having no idea of allowing clubs to
remain the trump. II the dealer has
anything better, he pays no attention
to the club suit itself. but figures on
his values as assisting strength for
anything, and increases his partners
bid to two clubs, simply to reopen the
bidding. He knows that z has an out
side ace OF king. but does not know
where II is. When b passed, q werk
to two no trumpS. II his partner has
or values, split up between two suits.
as he counts nothing for his clubs. the
best bid for the combined hand is no
trump. as game In any suit Is highly
improbable

the Jack. the queen winning. On getting
In with the king OF diamonds. p led the
ace OF hearts and then started the
spades. so as not to set up a heart trick
for dummy. 2 won the spade trick.
After dummy had made four dIa-
monds, he led heart and got in With
the ace of spades to make the estab-
iished heart, z making two clubs Mt the
end. This Is a good example of keep
ing the reentry In the right hand.
The sun., 1919-10-26

Clubs are trumps and 2 leads Y and
2 want FIVE tricks.
The solution is for z to lead a dia-
mond. which A wins. The best defence
Is an immediate lead OF trumps, which
wins and returns, giving 2 a discard
OF the high diamond. This is the key
&c the solution.
Now Y makes two tricks in diamonds,
no matter what A leads, and b is forced
to make a discard. If let's go the
queen OF hearts u sheds the smaller of
his two spades and makes q trick with
the nine Of hearts. II B let's go a spade
instead of the heart z makes two spade
tricks
An important variation Is AS refusal
to play the ace of diamonds on the first
Grtck. must lead his remaining dia-
iuond. Then, II A wins 1t and leads a
third diamond for B to trump, q over
trumps and leads a heart.
II A passes. Y trumps with the ten,
leads the ace of trumps and makes the
Jack Of diamonds. II A trumps the
heart, Y overtrumps with the ace and
leads the ten, so as to disarm B. Now
A loses diamond trick and Y leads q
spade to let 2 make the ten.
Here is something that should be in
teresting, and which Is also instructive
