Below are the four West hands
given Saturday. South has bid one
Heart, score love-all; what should
West declare?
My answer slip reads:
No. IT, West should double.
No. Is West should bid one Spade
or double.
No 10 West should bid one Spade.
No 20 West should bid two
Diamonds.
My reason in support of these
declarations are:
No II. The adverse Heart suit has
two shoppers and, as far as the
Hearts are concerned, a No Trump
is thoroughly justified; but the
worthless singleton in Clubs is
menace. If West bid No Trump and
North has solid Clubs, North will
pass and save the game. The Spades
are not strong enough to bid, so
the choice is between two Diamonds
and a double. The double is wiser
because it may produce a Spade bid
from partner which will go game
If the double produce Club bic
from East, West should bid No
Trump.
No. Is. A close choice between
one Spade and double. I express no
preference; the bidding skill of the
partner being a material element
in reaching a choice. The double
has the advantage of producing
Spade bid from East only if he have
four, but Vests Spade bid would in
duce East to pass or possibly to
raise with three Spades and might
work badly. On the other hand, the
double may produce a weak Club
take-out by East, which West would
follow with No Trump, and Spades
or Diamonds might work better.
No. 10. Clearly a Spade declara-
ton. A suit-bid is better than a No
Trump with this type of hand.
No. 20. A Diamond, not a Spade
or No Trump bid. While the Spade
honors are much greater, there is
great risk that the four card Spade
suit will be forced and long Spades
established for the adversarieS. The
game at Diamonds seems reasonably
assured and that bid is the soundest.

Others HELPED

If Levine deserves honorable men
ton, so does Bellanca, and all the
other ingenious minds who have
contributed to perfect the airplane.
When all is said and done, these
flying feats are distinctly triumph
of the inventor.
We are not dealing with one-man
exploits any more, though 1t some
times seems that way from the dis
tribution of honors.
Not only have hundreds OF men
died, but thousands have toiled
vainly and gone to their graves
broken-hearted and unknown that

Wonder Flight

All day Sunday, millions followed
their course by bulletins from mid
ocean, now from a town in England,
now from the island Of Guernsey,
now from Normandy and now from
the Rhineland.
The wonder of it all is Supplying,
Reality has outstripped romance.
The modern world is doing things
that the ancient world could not
dream.
We poor humans are being bound
together not only by a mechanism
of wings, wire and radio waves but
more effectually still by the spirit
growing out of it.
Twice within the month Ameri-
cans have ridden the wind to Europe
and twice has Europe made ready
to greet them with loud acclaim.
Who can doubt that such things
make for peace?

The Heroes

Chamberlin was the pilot, Of
course, and as such goes to take his
place among the immortal dare
devils of the world, but it was Levine
who put romance into this flight
Levine, the money maker, the good
angel, the man who wrote the
checks for the advertising there was
in it, as some folks have insinuated
No one suspected that Levine had
such thing in mind. much less that
he would do it. Even his wife was
caught off guard and tainted when
the truth dawned on her, while his
lawyer, who had drawn up a Will
for him less than forty-eight hours
before, was led to believe that he
contemplated no more hazardous
venture than to take ship for Eu-
rope.

Welcome, Brothers

Finally, even the Star has discovered that the
city manager system of government offers relief to
indianapolis and urges its readers to vote for the
change on June 81.
The Star is the last of the newspapers of this
city to get into line with the movement started by
The Times more than two years ago
The News got in step little more quickly. 1t
changed from policy of opposition to one of sup
port about three weeks ago. when it became apparent
that the people of this city would vote overwheln-
ingly for it,
1t is a matter of some pride to The Times that
the cause it naugurated now has the support of the
other newspapers.
When The Times first suggested to the people
of this city that the city manager system would save
the taxpayers from the high cost of politics and the
reputation of the city from repeated scandals there
was no organized group to take up that suggestion.
But the people were convinced and months later
the committee which finally presented the petition
for the election was formed by those who wanted
to rescue Indianapolis.
During these months The Times has repeatedly
called attention to the merits of this system.
The Times was on guard when the politicians
went to the Legislature to protect Mayor Duval in
his job for another two years. 1t alone called atten
ton to the conspiracy to take away from the people
their rights to this government Immediately.
Unfortunately the Legislature trading with
the local machine and Duvau secured the legislative
annulment of that part of his contract with the
pie which was written into the laws in effect when
he sought Office.
He was one of the first to recognize that the
movement which started with The Times had reached
the proportions of city wide revolt
Now the other newspapers recognize what Duval
feared. They, too, have to the conclusion that
the people of this city want the most modern system
Of government. They understand, he understood
that the people have made up their minds to put the
welfare of the city above the demands of the polti

fire and an unjust prison sentence
for one of the principals, played by
Fellowes. An escape from prison
is the next happening. ard every
thing starts to go. The escaped
prisoner, as his hiding place, goes
to a lonely forest lookout lodge pre-
sided over by the girl he loves,
played by Miss Crawford.
At this time q new ranger comes
on the scene and Francis x. Bush
man Jr. in this part is highly con-
vincing and real. OF course the
new ranger has to fall in love with
the girl lookout and the young lady
begins to wrestle with a pretty hard
problem.
A forest fire of gigantic proper
tons is the next thriller and it is
a good one. Richard earle and
Harvey Clark as the sheriff and his
bootlegger friend furnish some
good hearty comedy in the tense
situations during the latter part of
the picture and we are certain
every one will remember this pair

it excellent entertainment.
Included on the bill are Ruth

Mistake We Make

Levine suffers from the reputation
that seems to go with success in
business.
One of the strangest aspects of
this age is that men who do so much
to make it are rarely regarded as
having noble qualities.
In the age of superstition, the
priest was accounted great simply
because he was priest, and in the
age of militarism, the soldier got his
full share of glory simply because
he was a soldier, but in this age OF
commerce and industry those who
make fortunes are more apt to be
sneered at than applauded simply
because they make fortunes.

Cooperation

No wonder the world is thrilled.
though in a bewildered subconscious
way.
Here is a cause to intrigue us all,
regardless of race, creed or nation
atty, cause that promises more
for accord than dissension through
greater degree of dependence of
men on each other which it i'm
poses.
If it required cooperation to pro-
duce the instrumentalities that
make these flights possible, it. will
require vastly more to make them
commercially practical.
Science is not only Of humanity,
but for humanity.

Levine'S Life

Why did Levine do it? everybody
asks.
BY the same token, why shouldn't
he?
Where is the inconsistency with
his entire career.
What has he shown throughout
his life more wildly than courage,
independence and imagination
At 10 he went into business for
himself, and at 80 he is said to pos
sess a fortune of 100000.
1t takes something more than a
money grubbing disposition to &C
count for that. especially If man
starts out with no greater stock in
trade than a grammar school edu-
cation.

Other Disasters Coming

The year 1928 probably will witness some great
natural catastrophe in the United States. Perhaps
another flood, perhaps hurricane or tornado.
Last year there the Florida storm with its
toll of nearly 800 lives. The year before there was
the tornado that swept through Missouri, Illinois
and Indiana.
The year before that, the hurricane that cut
devastating path through northern Ohio.
Death lists are likely to grow greater in future
years, rather than less. One hundred years ago,
this continent terrific storms spent themselves in
the wilderness. Now wherever they STRIKE they find
human prey. The Nidlands, where once were great
unpopulated forests, are now the homes Of teeming
millions, the vanguard of millions to
way to avoid or at least to minimize the dam
age eo14 y the Mississippi and other rivers in food
time may be found.
But no way to stay the storms has yet even been
conceived. They will continue to strike, the only
question being where and when.
Facing this fact would it not be possible for the
American people, through Congress, to meet this
ending threat half way?
Instead of contemplating each new attack of
nature with bewilderment, could we not set up ma
chinery to handle it with energy and efficiency the
moment it arrives?

we can't do more we might at least provide

The absurdity of our Government having to con-
fess that it didn't have the money in hand to meet
the calls from the Mississippi valley is one thing
that should shame this great, wealthy Nation
Congress would have been quick to provide the
money, of course but Congress not in session
and the President could not see his way clear to
call Congress.
Another great national disaster might come with
Congress absent from Washington and another
President unwilling to order special session. Dis,

was such perfect flop on the
screen as an actor was because his
director forgot that Grange first and
only was a football player. So
when you go to see Babe Comes
Home" with Babe Ruth, you will
see more baseball in one picture
than you have ever seen before. 1t
is not tiresome because the direc-
tor has permitted Babe to be him
self, even to chewing tobacco and
getting his baseball toys as dirty as
possible. At times this movie is as
full of palm hokum as sardine can
is full of sardines, but the thing to
remember is that it is human no.

tempt to make a great lover out OF

these moments are delightfully."- hui
man. Some way, I have the feel
ing that Miss Nilsson has thrown
away some of her iceberg qualities
and has become really human for
once in this movie.
Babe Comes Home" is blessed
with sub-titles which are crowded
with good humor. This movie will
cause many a movie enthusiast to
have more faith in movie vehicles
and diamond fans will rejoice that
at last a baseball film comedy has
been made which rings true.
Comedy honors go to Babe Ruth,
who acts natural most of the time,
but Louise Fazenda has permitted
herself to be photographed in COM
edy poses which turn out to be rare
fun but not art. This Fazenda per-
son, when she has real chance,
can be a comedy riot and she is
such in this movie.
This Babe Ruth movie is the real
comedy article. 1t is built along
human comedy lines. The men will
love it and yell themselves sick
with joy. And the women, well,
they will love it. too.
