 Secretary American Bridge League
 Perhaps the most difhcult thing for the beginner at contract to learn Is how to properly overcall the bid of an opponent when using the straight forcing system. In our previous article We explained how to overcall with minimum hands. and we further learned the use 0l the informatory double.
 There are types of hands. how ever, where we Overcall our Op- ponents' original bid with jump bid; Q. x. opponent opens with one spade and we bid three hearts. I his Is known as jump bid. There Is considerable disagree ment among different authorities as to what q jump Overcall bid shnll indicate, but generally, under the straight forcing system, it indicates powerful hand containing about lhrec quick tricks and a strong hve-Card suit.
 Some players insist that partner | shall take this bid as a forcing bid and must keep the bidding open, , while other authorities call 1t an "urge" bid, but not an absolute forcing bid. It is made with two suit hand or a atrong re-blddablc suit, and while 1t is not an absolute | forcing bid which requires the bid- ding to be kept open until a game | going declaration Is arrived at, 1t IS an urgent appeal to partner to sup port the bid even though he does not have normal trump support but has one, probable trick. Another thing for the partner of the jump ovcrcall bidder to remem- Der Is that even though the op- ponent puts In q bid after the jump overcall, you should endeavOr 1O support partners bid if you hold one trick. OvcrtWiIing Opponents Suit
 With tho Same Suit
 This strategic bid now general ly used only after partner hps bid 1, 'e. <. partner deals and bids one heart. opponent bids one spade and you bid two spades. This shows normal, support for partners suit 1 In addition shows slam possibilities, It is q forcing bid and requires partner to keep the bidding open until A game going declaration Is arrived at.
 Some players also advocate the , bidding of opponents suit even !, though partner has not bid. but now that psychic bidding has en- tered the game. 1t is better to em- ploy other tactics. If the op- ponents open with one spade and 1 you bid two spades 1t does not necessarily show that you have no spa de losers or slam possibilities. Supposing good psychic bidder was not vulnerable while you were vulnerable and he held n singleton spade and opened with a bid Of one spade If you had q very good spade suit, 1t would be better for you to bid two spades and then. 1T partner shows smother suit. re-bid the spades. Partner cesld well pic ture the fact that your real suit was spades.

Bad LuCk-Contends New
Ball Is Popular.
BY JOHN B. FOSTER.

N YEW YORK, June 5.-Rumors
M have gained currency in
/ \ the East that the Cincin-
natl club is in straits, but
President John A. Heydler Of the
National League knows nothing
of it.
There will be no trouble in
Cincinnati" he said. I'VE have
not been advised of any change
If the present owner should wish
to retire, of which we know moth
ing, there are other gentlemen
who are ready to carry on with
Cincinnati.
THE club will proceed through the
season on schedule and all of us hope
with better success. Cincinnati is play
ing better ball than 1t did It's games
are interesting and hard fought. The
pitchers are receiving better support
and as the season progresses the team
will make clubs above it work hard to
defeat it.
Il think the accession of Clyde Beck
of the Cubs by Cincinnati will be of
| help to the team. 1t will strengthen
the infield, which has needed it. Beck
played a capital infeld for the Cubs
when he was pressed into service and
in any capacity for the Cincinnati team
he can be used TO advantage by Man
ager Dan Howley.
Don't overlook the fact" he con-
tinued. that luck dealt a wicked hand
to the Reds. First they lost the services
of Harry Heilmann in the outfield. and
they had depended upon him for their
big batter this year. He would have
been cleanup man, and if he had
not batted as hard as he did when
with Detroit he would surely have gone
far over 800. That would have helped
Cincinnati immensely. Then they lost
Heath, their young first baseman. just
as he was beginning to show some

of course, he will start little slow. as
any ball player does after an enforced
lay-off."

Indirectly, yes. 1t is popular. AS far
as can see now, it will stick along with

EN- ALL GUESSING
Indians Run New String to
10 After Losing ID Out
of IS Contests.
BY GAYLE TALBOT, JR.,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

TIME Cleveland Indians at
least nave enjoyed the sat-
i isfaction so far of keeping
the remainder of the Amer
lean League guessing. 1t is diff
cult to tell whether they are the
best club in the Junior circuit, or
the worst. They insist of reSem-
bling one or the other by turns.
Roger Peckinpaugh's mysterious men
started like world beaters. winning nine
of their first II engagements. Then,
with little or no warning, they turned
in and lost IA of their next Is. Just
now they are in the midst of another
winning squirt that has reached 10
straight and carried them back into the
first division, only a game behind the
third-place Yankees.
Whatever the final fortune of the
1881 Indians, it can at least be said
they did things in big way.
Yves Terrell, apparently fully recov-
cred from the jinX that trailed him
after his no-hit performance a month
ago, held Boston to eight scattered hits
yesterday as the Tribe made it three
Helped his own cause with a homer in
the ninth.
The leading Athletics and second
place Nationals kept pace by continuing
their slaughter of the visiting Western
clubs. Philadelphia, with George Earn
shaw pitching three-hit ball, took its
third from the White Sox, to /, and
Gen. Alvin Crowder pitched the Sem
ators to a 5-to-1 victory over Detroit.
1t was Earnshaw'S eighth win in a
row. Jimmy Foxx gave him a nice
working margin By hitting homer No. 10
in the second inning with one on.
The st. Louis Browns jumped on
Charlie Ruffing for seven runs in the
first four innings to make it two straight
from the Yankees, to 6. Oscar
Melillo's great hitting streak was broken
at eight straight when he flew out in
the first inning.
Pittsburgh and Boston supplied the
days thriller in the National, battling
for 10 innings before the pirates
squeezed out 2 to l triumph. Ray
Ign, held the Pirates scoreless until the
last of the ninth, when they tied the
count. They finally put across the
winner when Paul Waner was hit by
pitched ball, reached second on a sac
rifce and was singled in by Bill Regain.
Hazen (klkl) Cuyler, chicago out
fielder, cracked one into the bleachers
in the last of the ninth with one on
to give the Cubs their second straight
over Brooklyn. to 4. Hack Wilson
resembled his old self as he hit his
third homer of the year. singled, drew
a walk and scored the first three Cubs
runs.
The Cardinals stretched their lead
to two and a half games again by
nosing out the giants, to 5. Bill
Hallahan, pitching his first full game
of the year, got the decision over Carl
Hubbell when Adams doubled to start
the ninth and was singled in by Pepper
Martin. a pinch hitter.
After allowing only four hits for
seven innings, Ray Benge of the Phil
lies blew up in the eighth and Gin
cinnati scored four runs to make it
two straight, to O. Pinky Whitney
Phil third baseman, hit safely in his
eighteenth consecutive game.

batting, which still remains to be
proved, it has cut it down alike for
everybody, and 1 am sure it has made
good and attractive ball games.
Hardly contest is being played this
year in the National League without a
fight when conditions are equal. When
pitcher has a day off or a reliable
fielder makes an error that costs a
game, you must charge that to the luck
of base ball because it happens to all
teams. On the other hand. when games
are tied and won after the sixth in
ming, you know there has been good
base ball. The interest is not being
killed by huge blocks of runs in a sin

Crowd, One of Smallest in History
of Garden, Shows Little In

NEW YORK, June LP).-For the
second time in little more than a
year, Vince Dundee, Baltimore middle
weight, has proved his mastery over
the young East Side Hebrew, Ben Jeby.
While one of the smallest crowds in
the history of boxing in Madison
Square Garden looked on with only
slight interest. Dundee outpunched and
outsmarted Jeby last night to gain
a split decision in 10 rounds The
referee, Jack OSullivan, cast mis- ballot
for Jeby, but was outvoted by the two
judges.
Dundee won the first four rounds
coasted through the next four and
then came out to win the last two and
the decision. The bout was flercely
waged in spots. but it was dull affair
to watch with almost all the action
waged at close quarters.
The crowd numbered less than 1000
and receipts were barely $4,000.
