held only single raise for hearts, so
instead of either passing or bidding
more hearts. Il bid 3-clubs. Y reasoned
that Il must hold a few hearts and
many clubs; using his head more eff
fectively than some contract players
do, omitted thinking: "4-odd at
hearts and 5-odd at clubs mean game"
and bid 5-clubs. Game was made at
clubs, but game would have been i'm
possible at hearts. owing to the many
adverse hearts held, and their bad
distribution.

The bidder of a 4-card suit must be
even more careful at contract than at

largely on side strength, instead OF
especial strength in hearts.

Oy CH6 pIeJuu1c6 against Italian wit
nesses and radical defendants"
More Evidence EvapOrates
Boston-(FP) II The "Sacco cap"
that was supposed to be one of the
crowning pieces of evidence against
the Italian radical has been weighed
and found wanting by George Brant-
ing, son of the former Socialist pre-
mier of Sweden, who came to Ameri-
ca for the sole purpose of studying
the famous international labor case.
This cap was star exhibit at the
trial. At the Brockton police station
after Sacco's arrest he was compelled
to pose in the cap for the assistance
OF Identifying witnesses. The cap was
said to have been picked up at the
murder scene. Judge Thayer in his
1924 opinion. denying the first mo-
tions for anew trial, cited the cap as
strong circumstantial evidence of
Sacco's guilt.
But Branting has probed into the
facts. He finds first, that the cap
was not discovered till "a hours after
the crime. And since 2500 workers
from the Slater & Morrill, and the
Rico & Hutchins shoe factories a few
yards away had been beating up and
down the public road it is difficult to
believe the cap could have rested
there "a hours without being picked
up.
The ''finder of the cap was an Of
ficial of the Slater & Morrill, shoe
factory, whose payroll had been rob
bed. After another "a hours the com
pany turned the cap over to a Brain
tree policeman.
The Sacco cap was either a fraud
or mistake, in the opinion of Tim
othy Collins, Boston Globe reporter,
who arrived on the scene a half hour
after the murder. Branting has Col
Inns story. Collins got the police
facts at once. There was not a word
about the cap the first day nor till
several weeks later.
The Sacco cap appears to have
been an afterthought of the prosecu-
