ARTICLE No. 10

A great many players seem to be in
doubt as to whether or not they are
justified in taking advantage of the
personal element in auction. In other
words, is it fair and within the ethics of
the game to note and take adv antage
of the mannerisms or characteristics of
your fellow players? The answer is SIM
pie. You are playing game with three
other people, your partner ard two
opponents, and it is not only allowable,
but it is your duty to study them as
carefully as you do your cards. The
players in the game are just as impor-
tant as the cards and should be studied
and analyzed just as carefully. If you
are playing with strangers, it is rather
difficult to profit by such analysis, but
when you are playing constantly with
the same group you should take into
account all of the characteristics of the
different players, when bidding, playing
the dummy or playing against the de-
clarer. You can bid freely with one
partner but must be conservative with
another. You can take a chance against
one opponent but must be very careful
of being doubled with another. If one
opponent does double, lock out, for you
are probably beaten; but if another
doubles, figure on an extra trick or so.
In the play of the hands, however, a
little different point arises. 1t is not
considered good form to hesitate or
otherwise indicate by your method of
play, that you do or do not hold certain
cards If a player becomes noted for
l. ~ 6 l.
ever, his opponents are certainly justi-
fed in taking due advantage. One play
er, for example, always gives a nervous
cough when he holds the missing honor
and the opponent leads through his
hand. He has tried hard to cure himself
of this habit but without success. AS a
result, his opponents play for this signal
and nearly always get the necessary in
formation. Another player had a habit
of always redOubling when doubled.
The word 'double" seemed to call up
in his mind the word 'redouble" and he
was helpless to refrain from saying it.
Every player at the table has the same
opportunity of drawing conclusions that
you have, so be on the alert at all times
for tn: human element. Bridge is
game OF wits and the player who can
best match his wits against the Others
IS the winning player. On the other
hand, always avoid unfair tactics, such
as private conventions or signals. IN
premeditated slips sor mannerisms should
be taken advantage of but watch out
for those that are made with the inten-
tion of deceiving. For example, if you
have a singleton of the suit led, you
should play it promptly and not hest
tate. Hesitation in such a case would
lead your opponent to believe that you
have a choice of two or more cards and
might influence his play to his disad-
vantage. Such tactics are not manner
isms and are distinctly unfair. Play
mans game, man fashion, at all times.
One of the types of players that one
meets very often is the player who al
ways tries to take his partner out of a
double. He gets the idea into his head

Espionage Is
Not Favored
By the Clergy
Federal Council of Churches
Condemns Registration
of Aliens

Washington, d. C.-Espion-
age of aliens would defeat the
very ends which it is designed to
serve, says the administrative
committee Of the Federal Coun-
Gil of Churches.
The committee expresses its appre-
hension in regard to these proposals
now before congress.
"While heartily agreeing that ev-
cry proper effort should be made to
curb the illegal entry Of aliens, to pro-
mote respect for law by all in our
midst, and to further the incorpora-
ton Of aliens into our community life,
we feel strongly that all steps which
are taken to secure these ends should
be free from any spirit of antagonism
toward aliens and from any features
which will be humiliating to them" ]"
the committee says.
"Any law which aims to safeguard
the nation from anti-social influences,
but which in practice makes aliens re-
siding in America feel that they have
been subjected to annoying espionage
or unjust determinations, would de-
feat the very ends which it is design
ed to serve. 1t would create an atti-
tude of ill-Will toward our govern
ment, rather than an attitude of
friendly confidence"

AGAINST DEFENSE DAY

The annual defense test day
has proven a failure, according
to report by a committee Of
twelve reserve officers who have
filed a report with Major Gen
eral Kinds, corps commander OF
Texas.
The officers favor a defense
day once every four years when
authorized by congress.
Stating that the purpose Of
the test had not been accom-
plished, the committee said that
the initiative at present springs
from the regular army when it
should be a spontaneous express
sion of the people, and opens the
regular forces to criticism"

PRISON MADE GOODS

Sale of prison made articles in
Ohio will be curbed under pro-
visions of a bill introduced in
congress by Representative John
G. Cooper, Youngstown.
The bill prohibits interstate
shipment of goods manufactured
in prison into states where sale
is forbidden by state law, and
places such shipments under
state laws. Heretofore contract
ors employing convict labor have
been able to market their goods
in states forbidding sale, under
protection Of the interstate COM
merce laws.

DICARD INJURY PAY

Coal operators in Oklahoma
who have repudiated the Jack
sonville agreement, and are op-
Grating non-union have abandon
ed workmen's compensation, but
continue to carry insurance on
their machinery and their mine
mules.
The recent mine disaster at
Wilburton, where ninety-three
non-union miners lost their
lives, will not cost the company
one cent for compensation, as it
discontinued this insurance
when it declared for nOn-union-
ism.

Hand No. 1

No score, rubber game Z dealt and bid
no-trump. A bid two hearts and Y
doubled. B Immediately got panicky
and bid two spades which Z doubled. A
now bid three hearts, Y doubled and
all passed. A lost his contract by only
one trick so that if B had left the double
alone, he and his partner would have
won game and rubber What B failed
to consider was: First, that A must
have a very strong hand to bid over
one no-trump; and, second, that if he
wanted a spade bid, he would have
doubled no-trump. Be on the look out
for such hands and don't take your
partner out of bid just because it has.
been doubled. The following hand is an
even worse example of what not to do:

No score, first game. Z dealt and bid
three spades and A doubled. Y never
hesitated a minute and promptly bid
four diamonds. B doubled and defeated
the contract 400 points while the three
spade bid would have lost only 200
points less eight honors. This example
is an extreme case perhaps, but is fine
illustration of what not to do.
Here is a peculiar hand, both in the
bidding and play and an illustration of
the great possibilities of apparently
weak hands.

MAY PLANT HUNGARIAN
PATRIDGES AT POWELL

R. r. Rousseau, assistant state
game warden spent several days in
Cody last week, and while here is
making arrangements for the plant
of twenty-seven pair of Hungarian
patridges in the northern part of
the state, and it is thought that
at least half of these birds will be
liberated on the Powell flat where
conditions seem to be ideal for their
propagation.
Several years ago twenty-seven
birds were liberated near Sheridan
and it is said the flock has increas-
ed to two thousand birds, which
stay within an area of fifteen
square miles. The birds at Powell
will be under the care of a special
game warden and will be fed and
cared for as is needed.
State game warden, A. A. Sanders
has offered to trade some elk for
game birds and has received many
offers from adjoining states.
MI. Rousseau left Saturday for
Billings, and expects to go over
to the Sheridan country before re-
turning to Cheyenne.

Government to Legalize Manufacture of
'Malt Beer" to Contain 3.75 percent Alcohol

A malt health booster, contain
ing 3.75 per cent alcohol. is
to be placed on the market for a
trial period of six months under
sanction of Assistant Secretary An
drews of the treasury, in charge
of prohibition enforcement.
Permits of manufacture and sale
of the tonic at drug stores through
out the country without the requir-
ment of prescription, have been
issued to Anheuser-Busch, Inc, ST.
Louis, and the Pabst Brewing COM
pany of Milwaukee.
The government has placed no
restriction upon the amount that
may be manufactured, or sold to
the consumer, although drug stores
will be limited to five to twenty
five cases a week depending upon
the volume of their business.
Despite its alcoholic content, the
"health booster" will have a re-
straining "kick'' because of a re-
quirement that it contain rs per
cent malt solid, which, prohibition
officials said. would prevent its use
as an intoxicant, for the reason that
excessive drinking would produce
illness.
