WHEN VULNERABLE
No Trumps Majors Minors

To illustrate how these odds work
out. let us assume that a player not
vulnerable has bid six hearts and
been doubled by the opponents. If
he fails to make his contract by one
trick he would pay a penalty of 100
points. Had he redoubIed his penal
ty would have been increased only
by 100 additional points. Now, as
suming that the declaration was
successful. doubled and redoubled.
the winning player would score 720
below the line and 100 above for his
successful contract. In short. the
redouble would have increased his
score by 4l0 points. Supposing
that the contract would hinge on
the failure or success of one finesse
or one drop, the odds favoring sue
cess in a redouble are Al against !.
Should the bidding indicate, how
ever, that there might be a wide
swing, either above or below con-
tract, 1t should be borne in mind
that the bonus for over tricks is
generally only one-half as great as
the penalty for additional under
tricks. Therefore, If the informa.
tion has not been more or less ex-
act, II would tend to diminish the
advantage Of redouble.
Slams
When contract was a very young
game, players new to It's strategy
and somewhat overawed by the un-
heard-of necessity of having to bid
for q contract to score it, grasped
at every straw that might help them
in the novel and hazardous enter
prise Of bidding for a slam. ISLAM
cues" of every sort and description
were invented. Spectacular meth
ods some Of these were, by which
slams could be arrived at only
after an intricate and horribly con.
fusing series of bids. which pur-
ported to show the location Of all
the aces and Tin some systems)
even Fings.
Fortunately. for the good Of the
game of contract. 1t was not long
before more thoughtful types of
players came to recognize the in
herent weaknesses Of this supposed
ly technical ISLAM bidding" 1t soon
became apparent that by the time
partners succeeded in locating all
the aces in the pack, they had usu.
ally managed to push each other up
to a slam bid which failed because

back up their aces.
Modern contract has discarded all
the outworn methods Of ISLAM bid

the only way to arrive at sound
slam contract is just as one arrives
at a sound game contract-by part
nership information, trick valuation
and deduction.
A few basic rules which must al

slam bidding are:
From your first declaration to
your last. concentrate on showing
dependable honor-trick values
Be sure that every bid you make
has some sound reason for its exist

Never give a direct inference for
a slam unless you have some slight
doubt as 70 its favorable outcome

Autopsy Brings Tragic

Trenton, N. j.. May 13-tUP)
The autopsy on the Lindbergh
baby brought tragic proof today
that police work and private ne.
gotiations since March l had been
In vaine, and that publication Of
news on progress of the case had
not played a role one way or the
other.

lish contacts and obtain word OF
the kidnapers recalled today that
the press had suppressed matter
for him on one occasion, had heed
ed requests against Intrusion ut
Hopewell and against following
him on his more recent missions.
Moreover, the coroner's findings
Indicated that while the public In
some instances was raising cry
against publication of news In the
case, the baby lay murdered on n
hillside almost within sight of the
Lindbergh estate.
Condition Of the body indicated
the child was dead over two
months, and IL IN quite possible
that II was killed the very night
of the abduction or the following
day.
Col. Llndbergh openly expressed
his appreciation of press coopera-
ton; and his associates also advis.
cd that they wanted the public to
maintain an Interest In the case,

CHICAGO, April Patrons Of

probably will be asked to put

the proposed tax on sports scores In
the Senate-on the boards next
Autumn. Very few of the Big Ten
members have signified any diSpo-
sition to reduce prices for the 1882
campaign, particularly for the more
important games. All Conference
schools have declared against alb
sorbing the proposed Government
tax, since such move would be
suicidal to their budgets.
The Conference will make q de-
tailed study of the economic situa-
ton throughout the midlands be-
fore the opening of the foot ball
season, and while the price scale
largely is a matter of individual dis
cretion it is likely the Big Ten will
act more often as unit on the mat
ter of admissions.

~ II. TnATNh 0AIbDEkL, DOSS HAL
Nu of the greatest duckpin out
f1t in the country, occupies 8
very singular niche In sports.
Alternately dour and smiling, Barber
wore a broad grin last night as he
herded his Connecticut Blue Ribbons
from the Convention Hall alleys, the
scene Of a bowling massacre only a
few minutes before.
He knew those folks in the John
Blick bowling stadium had eyes only
for Nick Tronsky, Bill Tato and the
rest of the blue-sweatered gang, but
inwardly appeared q glowing feeling
as a spectator, possibly a bit "het up
on the home boys, yelled, Say, why
don't you guys find somebody to
bowl?"
1t wasn't Mr.. Frank Barber's fault
The opposition was the best team that
could possibly be raised in Washington
His Blue Ribbons were just too good.
DUT let's get back to Mr.. Barber's
ID sport status. He just comes under
the subhead of Miscellaneous" Z"
Or maybe Extraordinary would be a
better label
Anyway, if you've never glimpsed a
Jack Curley, Connie Mack and Joe
Engel rolled up into one, notice some
time the statue-like figure of Mr.. F.
Barber reclining on the Blue Ribbons
bench.
Aside from the way they spill duck
pins, there is a finesse about the Blue
Ribbons that isn't quite duplicated by
any other bowling team. When they
entered the stadium" last night in
single file, all clad in blue, and warmed
up before the fray, there came the
thought that Monday the Griffs play
base ball-that's the way the Ribbons
pre-game practice is.
MR.. BARBER doesn't have to ad-
1v1 vertise, in Washington anyway,
that he has a bowling team.
Everybody knows it. After last night,
when one of the greatest local teams
ever organized here took it on the
whiskers like it did, nearly everybody
will warble the Blue Ribbons are about
the best in the business.
But back to Mr.. Barber. He has a
bowling stable" He pulls Joe
Engel" in scouting Connecticut's best
talent. He never carries more than
eight. He signs and releases and the
only reason why he doesn't ask waivers
is because the rest of the bowling folk
haven't caught up to him yet.
He changes mineralite tossers like
Connie Mack changes pitchers. The
only reason why he doesn't wave a
scorecard is because there aren't any
in bowling. But he watches the score
board instead.
He has three substitutes. When he
puts 'em in you wonder if he's putting
in his regulars or shock troops. They're
all that good.
