Sister Mary's S
 Kitchen
By SISTER MARY NEA Service Writer

For the woman who works and keeps house, too, and for the wo- man who wants to spend more of her time outside of the kitchen, whole meals cooked in the oven at one time are a decided aid. The constant watching usually neces- sary for top-stove cooking is elim- mated, leaving time for other things, and a worthwhile saving of fuel is affected.
 Everything can be prepared earlier in the day with each food put into the pan or dish in which it is to be baked. Then. at the proper time, the oven can be light ed and the prepared dishes put in. The meal will cook without

Investigation into alleged opera
ton Of uncertifcated truck lines
from Indianapolis throughout the
state by companies headed by Tom
Snyder, veteran truckman, will be
instituted by the public service COM
mission, it was announced today by
Commissioner Harry K. Cuthbert-
son.
Testimony Of Snyder in the Store
Door Delivery case before Cuthbert-
son will be sent to the attorney
generals office with the idea of in
shutting injunction proceedings
against lines operating without per-
init, the commissioner said.
Both moves are the aftermath Of
the hearing on petitions for COM
mon carrier permits filed by Store
Door Delivery, Inc, which termi-
mated abruptly Tuesday afternoon.
Snyder is secretary and treasurer of
the petitioning company.
Cuthbertson made curtain
speech and then dismissed the
pending petitions on his own mi
tiatiYe.

In the speech he charged that
Snyder, who also is president Of the
Central Union Truck Terminal, Inc,
and Warehouse Distributing Corpo-
ration here, merely was seeking in
the Store Door Delivery petitions
to get permits to operate truck lines
already denied individually, and
that, despite this denial, Snyder
continue to and in their operation
as common carriers.
THE sole question Is whether Tom
Snyder is bigger than the state of
Indiana" Cuthbertson declared.
I'm going to hold that the public
service commission, as an agency Of
this state, is bigger than he is and
dismiss these petitions.

tons were filed to secure permits

after the hearing that it was ex-

and that coming to the commission
was "just routine"

5OO-M|LE AIR SPEED
 FOUND HIGH OVER ALASKA

Fourteen miles above the wea- ther bureau station at Fairbanks, a small hydrogen-filled pilot bal loon was observed moving at a speed of STA miles an hour.
 The perfectly clear air enabled observers to keep the balloon in sight, through powerful glasses for a distance of 40 miles. Accord ing to reports, this sounding of the upper air currents establishes a new record for altitude. As the pilot balloon ascended it found 25-mile hour wind currents at the seven-mile level.
 Two hours after it's release, the balloon had reached an altitude of IA miles, at which time it's ve- locity was checked by means o1 the special scales and equipment for the weather bureau.

Solution TO Problem No. s

Hearts are trumps and z is in the
lead. How can Y Z win four of the
seven tricks against any defense?
Solution: The king of diamonds is
the proper lead and Y should be careful
to play the seven las (a) below. B
should refuse to win the trick. Z should
row lead the queen of clubs, A should
play the king and Y should play a low
club. AS best play is the trump, Y
should play the king and B the ace. B
should return the seven of hearts,
forcing Z in the lead. z now leads a
club which Y wins with the ace and the
diamond lead makes the queen good
in rs hand for the fourth trick.
(a) Should B win the first diamond
trick with the ace and follow with the
ace and small trump. Y should win
the third trick with the king Of hearts

that the suit is one of four cards or has
length without the tops. A passed one
diamond, and Y bid two clubs. This
bid is much better bid than one no
trump. B passed and Z now bid two
spades. When A passed, Y realized
that rs spade bid was not overly
strong or he would have bid it on the
first round; so he correctly decided to
bid two no trumps. When B passed, Z
had the stage set for his third suit bid
of hand, and correctly bid three hearts.
He reasoned that if Y could not sup
port either spades or diamonds, he
should have heart strength. His bid of
three hearts was passed and in the
resultant play he easily scored four
odd, losing only one club and two heart
tricks. 1t was a pretty hand and clever
ly bid. AS the cards lay, no game could
have been made at no trump, spades or
diamonds; SO rs clever bidding was
well rewarded. Tie bidding would have
been the same at Contract, except that
after I bid three hearts, Y would have
bid four hearts, and thus Y I would
have been able to score game at Con-
tract also.
The Carbon County news. [volume] (Red Lodge, Mont.) 1924-1931, 1931-01-15

Y should now lead the deuce of dia-
monds and Z should allow A to win
this trick with the jack. (Note that if
Y had not played the seven of dia-
monds on the first trick, B could block
the lead of the diamond at the fourth
trick by discarding the jack of dia,
monds in AS hand on the second round
of hearts,. At the fourth trick, A i,
thrown in the lead and must lead a
club up to the queen in rs hand and
Y Z must now win the last three tricks.
If at trick two B had led the jack of
clubs, instead of the trump, Y should
win with the ace and return the dia-
mond. Z should win this trick and re.
turn the diamond. Y can overtrump
A and should win the trick and return
the trump. Thus again Y z win four
