New York May S.-New York has a, big army of swivel chair ad venturers-dreamer chained To skyscraper desks who ride broom . sticks into imaginary lanis. In their nationalist world they hunger for the jungle, the veldt and th ? wild places they wiu never sec.
 There are a hundred little hooks harboring filiousterers who plot revolutions that will not be realized over speakeasy tables. The Camp fire Club in New York is one of the biggest organizations Of is kind in the world It satisfies an ache Of cliff-dwelling romanticists,
 Men who have scarcely crossed the islands boundary lines sit about in pop-eyed e.agerness to hear Con- radian accounts Of the exploits Of explorers, tiger and elephant hunt ters who have returned to placid civilization after riding with DeatL along outer rims of the world.
 Nearly all the packers Of the Byrds. tha Stefanssons and other intrepid wanderers are men whose lives are attuned 10 the bump Of street cars and the honk Of motors. No spot in the world was SO deeply interested in the search Of Kermit Roosevelt for the giant banda as New York.
 There are innumerable men who spend relaxing hours in the huge sporting goods establishments, proving about. examining guns, pup tents and outdoor cooking out fits. Many equip themselves for expeditions and wind up lolling oa the sands of Palm Beach.
 One rich man. confined 10 a wheel chair as the result of col lcglate football accident, has an elaborately equipped gun room ill lis gloomy mansion on upper Fifth avenue He spends many hoWs there dreaming. Hundreds of metropolites own packs of hunting dogs they never use.
 The lure of adventure is responsl- blc too for many who roam thr qLeer lost streets of the town after midnight. Every policeman on an isolated patrol knows them. They are stalking-and a little pathetic ally-the thrill that is as elusive >s the rainbow.

Spades are trumps and 4 is in the
lead. How can Y win two of the three
tricks against any defense2
Solution: Z should lead the deuce of
spades. If A plays the trey of spades,
Y should play the four. If A plays the
ten of spades, Y should play the queen.
In either case, B is forced in the lead,
either with the seven or king of spades.
He must win this trick or Y Z will win
all three tricks.
Having won this trick, B can lead
either spade or diamond. If he leads
the spade, wins the trick with the
ace and Y's king of hearts must win
the next trick. If B should lead the
king of diamonds, z should discard the

trump. As Y just overplayed AS trump
on the first trick, he can still do so nor
matter what was played on the first
trick. As result Y must thus win
trick two and rs ace of spades must
win trick three. In this way Y Z must
win two of the three tricks. This end
play is given to show the importance Of
throwing one opponent in the lead So
that he is forced to lead a suit to his
disadvantage.
Other end plays will be given from
time to time, but the best way to profit
from these example hands is to be~oIn-
the lookout for opportunities in actuaA
play.

trumps with the four of clubs. In either
case Y z must therefore win three
tricks.
Tits end play is given to show the
necessity at times of trumping your
partners tricks in order to get into am
advantageous position yourself, or to.
place your partner in that position
For example, suppose at trick two
both A and Y refused to trump tho
ace of diamonds. In that case Z can
lead a trump or the deuce of hearts. If
the former, A B must win two trump
tricks no matter how Y plays. II z
leads the deuce Of hearts, A should
discard and no matter which trump Y
plays, B can over-trump and thus
enable A B to win two tricks. Note this
end play carefully for it is a tricky one

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Jan. D. The East rode roughshod to a 19 to 2 victory over the West in the Shriners' Benefit Football game yes- terday afternoon.
 Only once did the West, which entered a favorite, show a sem blance of form expected and that was at the start of the second half when passes and brilliant dashes by Lom, of California, brought the ball to the two yard line, and Sloan crashed over.
 Peters, Illinois quarter, played an impressive part in the eastern vic- tory, twice booting the pigskin for field goals from the 35 and 45 yard lines in the second and fourth quarters and one try for a point after touchdown.

REV. PROKOvSKY
 GOES TO S|TKA
Is to Relieve Rev. Prosor, in On arge of St.
 Michael's Cathedral

The Rev. Antonin Prokovsky Archimandrite of the Russian Or thodox Church, who passed through Juneau on the Queen a few days ago, is to relieve the Rev. G. G.
 Prosor, of St. Michaels Cathedral Sitka, according to the Rev. A. P. Kashevaroff, who entertained Fa- ther Prokovsky for few hours while he was in Juneau.
 Father Prokovsky was formerly a chaplain in the Russian army and saw service in the World War on the Eastern front. He was recent ly in charge of parish in vancou- yer, B. O., and it is said that it was through his efforts that a large church was built and dedicated in August. Father Prokovsky wanted to come to Alaska to rest and to obtain the benefits of the hot springs which are located near Sitka.
 Father Prosor is leaving Sitka in order that his two children may at- tend schools of higher learning in the States. He will be assigned to some parish in Seattle, Sacra- mento or Los Angeles. He was well liked in Sitka and 1t is said that he leaves the Cathedral in much better condition that it has been for years.
