AMELIA EARHART WITH ONE RECORD
 SEEKS ANOTHER

Philadelphia, April 9-CUP)- Amelia Earhart, with one record to her credit-that of being the first woman to fly an autogiro plane-to- day awaited official confirmation of her barographs for the second rec ord.
 Miss Earhart made two altitude tests with the new type windmill plane at Pitcairn airfield, Willow Grove, yesterday, reachin! an un- official height of 19,000 feet in the second flight after soaring to 1S,- 500 feet in the first.
 If the official readings of her sealed paragraphs at Washington show the unofficial heights to be &C., curate, she will have established an autogiro record for both men and women to shoot at. The unofficial ceiling for men is said to be 1S.- 900 feet.
 Miss Earhart, who was the first woman to travel across the Atlantic ocean in an airplane, was up one hour and 50 minutes on the frat flight and one hour and 49 minutes on the second. She said she felt fine as she stepped from the plane at the end of the second flight, anl that the altitude had no i'll effects. Miss Earhart was clad in an elec- trically heated, fur-lined, flying suit when she stepped into the plane at noon for the first flight. With the four large blades above her head spinning like an inverted widmill, and the propellor whirring, began to ascenr.
 "The plane was climbing steadily when had reached 18,500 feet" she said on landing, "bLt I was faced with strong headwinds which delayed me for time. I think I | could have made 2z,00O feet if my gasoline had not run low. I had no trouble in seeing after left the ground. It was cold, but I think not freezing.
 She said she felt novel sensation when she began to fall with almost no gasoline left, and realizing that
 her life depended entirely upon the rotor blades instead of the motor.

Judge Claremont I. Tolles con- tinued the case of Joseph Kasper of 23 Union street, Union City, in the borough court this morning un- til Monday morning, April 13. Kasper is charged with violation of the liquor laws, keeping liquor with intent to sell and also with conduct ing a place where liquor Is reputed to be sold. The continuance this of Atty Henry J. Freeman, who has been engaged as counsel by Kas- per. Atty Freeman informed the court that he had been engaged in the case only an hour before the opening time of court this morn ing. Bonds were placed at $1,0O0 which the accused had not procur- ed early today.
 According to police records it is the fifth time that Kasper has been arrested on similar charges, the last arrest was last July and he was fined over $500. It was necessary for the raiding squad of local police to break down door to enter the place of business of the accused last night shortly before 10 o'clock. Kasper had a special system of allowing custom CTS to enter the place of business. A lookout was stationed in a sec tion of the store and when a pros- pecive customer passed scrutiny, ac- cording to the local police he was admitted when the attendant re- lased a spring catch on the door. When the raiding officers broke in the door last night the lookout shouted something to Kasper in a foreign tongue and ducked out of the door escaping the police. The warning came too late for the of- ficers found small quantity of al- legged liquor in a pitcher. The raid ing officers were Anthony Malone, Jr, James Cuddy, John Gormley, Joseph Doran, George Froelich and Walter Lyckiewcz.
 Candidates Endorsed.
 l Candidates nominated for officer at the annual borough election to be
 held in May on the democratic tic- ket headed by Warden Frank T. Green were endorsed by the demo- meeting held last night in the local probate office.
 l Warden Greens administration of 1 the borough affairs for the past year was pointed to with pride by the party members.
 The feeling was expressed that a fine supporting ticket has also been named and that it deserves the
 whole hearted support of the tax
 payers of the borough.
 The club also voted to forward a letter of coincidence to Warden Green in St Raphaels hospital in
 New Haven, where he is recovering
 from an operation and to pledge
 their support to him in the coming
 campaign. A Vote was also passed
 instructing the treasurer of the club
 to forward flowers to the warden. Among those who spoke at the
 meeting last night were Miss Kath-

The Bidding

The blOOln&
 First round: North one heart, East one spade, South three clubs (forcing), West pass.
 Second round: North four clubs, East pass, South five hearts Gnvi- tation). West pass.
 Third round: North six hearts.
 This example presents very in- teresting problem in the application of the forcing bid. It arises with South as to whether he should inn mediately raise his partners one heart to four hearts. Naturally South is determined, after his part ner's original heart declaration, to play the hand at hearts, but the possibilities of slam appear promising.
 Consequently South responds with a forcing bid of three clubs, demand ing further bid from partner; also guaranteeing from two and a half to three high card tricks and a bid dable club suit. With South's 4-3-2 of clubs and his losing eight of dia- mOnds, bidding a slam in hearts at once would have been very poor bid ding; in fact 1t would have been nothing but guessing.
 North, in response to his part HerlS lorce, must TeDlus put since ms partner has denied his hearts. a fur ther bid of that suit would be dan- gerous. Having four clubs, however lthe suit bid by his partner. North Iis justified in advancing the contract to four clubs.
 Note now the information Is re- ceiyed by South. His worries so far as his small clubs are concerned have largely disappeared. With the IRdversaries bidding spades and he himself holding the ace, the possi- bilities of slam in hearts appear exceedingly bright: consequently South is amply justified in either bidding six hearts or at least invit- ing the slam by bidding five hearts South's forcing bid of three clubs has assisted materially in arriving at the maximum declaration intelli- gently The lesson in this hand is moi whether North and South bid and make a slam in hearts: on the con- trary the writer aims to convey the intelligent information derived by means of forcing bids and responses thereto.
