fair" And the investigators com ment as follows:
 "The mere coincidence in time between Swanson's entry into the case and the arrests of the defend- ants is almost sufficient to raise the inference that Swanson used his connection with the district at- torney's office to cause their ar- rests. The most convincing hypo- thesis is that Swanson saw a chance in the bomb (preparedness day) cases to pay off old scores, and at the same time to enhance his prestige by convincing men who were obnoxious to his employers. Both Swanson's own reputation and the district attorneys political background lay the choice of Swan- son open to criticism"
 The investigators then relate that the president and other off, cer of the United Railways had been indicted on graft charges prior to Fickert's induction into office, and that month later the district attorney had moved to dis. miss the cases for lack of evidence. Judge Lawlor refused to entertain the motion and intimated doubt q to it's propriety by suggesting that the prosecution take further time to prepare. The investigators base upon this incident their statement that the employment of a detec- tive connected with the United Railways "seems subject to fair criticism.''
 The report states that the de- fendants were arrested without warrants and that "it becomes ap- parent their arrests were not le- gal"
 We f1nd," the report continues, from xx x analysis of informa- tfon on which the defendants were arrested that in no case did the police have reasonable cause to arrest them without warrants with in the meaning of the California statute.
 "The various searches made by the members of. the. police force and the district attorneys office were marked by the same disre- gard of the legal rights of the de- fendants that characterized their arrests and detentions.
 Having proclaimed the arrests illegal, the investigators say of the Identification of the various de- fendants:
 There is no evidence in the identified any of the defendants from a lineup. On the contrary, 1t was affirmatively shown, as to the more important witnesses, that there not only was no lineup, but that in each instance the witness saw the person identified alone.
 And there are indications in the record that in the case of several witnesses, the circumstances under which they were shown the de- fendants were adapted to foster dubious or mistaken identifica- tion.''

 and coal from the walls and buried them in the avalanche. Macoskie was buried up to his hips. Topolski was completely covered Masockie struggled for several hours, at last freed himself. He ran several miles to the mining town of Brady to bring rescuers. Within an hour more than 1000 volunteers had gathered. For three hours the men dug. At last they came upon Topolski. He was alive and conscious. He had held his hands over his face, thus forming an air pocket that allowed him to breathe.
 Another hour and the men had cleared his head, shoulders, and torso.
 Topolski suddenly screamed a warning.
 Look out, boys. Here comes some more,' he screamed.
 The rescuers ran for cover. Top o1ski was buried again under tons of debris as the rain loosened a new slide from the sides of the shaft.
 Hours of more digging. The father joined the diggers. The mother sobbed. Again his head was uncovered and again he was alive.
 His shoulders were clear when the rain loosened another slide. The rescue workers barely escaped. Topolski was buried under fifteen tons. :.
 "There's no chance now" said one of the diggers, but the digging continued.
 It will be hours before the dig gers can reach Topolski, Is was es- timated. The place where he IS buried is so narrow that only four men can dig at time. More than 100 eIwere gathered around the en- tram of the mine, waiting their tufIE at the shovels.
 Several more caves and slides occurred shortly before noon, com pletely filling the air hole.
 P. J. Friel, state mine inspector said that Topolski was now buried under more than 20 feet of coal and rock and that it would prob ably be two days before he could be reached.
 Seventy-five men were manning shoyels, working from the top or the slope. The work was slow ana dangerous due to the frequent slides
 Friel ordered that the air hole be timbered as the men hallowed it out so as to prevent further loss of life.

On the other hand Y dared not
risk pulling trumps at once. OF
the two evils he preferred to
risk the third round of clubs
being ruffled, so he led a second
round of clubs, and B was in
the lead. B led back a trump.

Y next led three rounds of

spades. Then he was able to
spread his hand for the balance
Of the tricks, winning five-odd.
Of course rs jump into game
was a gamble, but B should
never have afforded him the op-
portunity. Had the hand been
played at no-trump, at best z

tricks. Probably 2 would have
led a club, to establish that

CHAPTER 80

Dwight Gwin. His name on
the brass plaque on his door
was the first thing that Lily
Louis eyes rested on when she
came to work in the mornings.
It was in her mind when she
awoke, as she so often did, at
night:
Gwin was a miracle worker.
No wonder that he could pick
and choose his pupils. He slaved,
he inspired. he roared. he re-
duced his students to tears, to
profanity, to the depths Of de-
spair.
He walked the floor. He
wrung his hands. Tears of rage,
of delight, of disappointment,
glistened in his small dark
eyes.
A Great Maestro
Unless he wasn't interested.
In that case he would walk
the floor, examining bits Of brio
a-brac, small objects of art on
his chests and tables, with the
air of an amateur discovering
them for the first time. His
pupil could sing anything, any
way he wished. Unless it was
someone in whom he had hope
Of real achievement he hardly
listened at all.
But if he was interested, moth
ing was too much trouble. He'd
take a line, a phrase. a trill over
and over!"
again, pleaSe-once again!"
Lily Lou could never decide
which was the most tiring, try
ing to accompany someone who
couldn't stay on key and whom
Gwin wouldn't trouble to cor
rect, or playing one phrase over
and over again until her fingers
ached.
But she loved it. She slaved.
She learned. She took to heart
everything he said. Every song
she accompanied she sang in
her mind. She learned not only
her own songs, but all she
played. Her mind was clear
again. It was receptive. She
was athirst, after her long alb
sence from study. She felt that
nothing could stop her. Her
fierce ambition had come back.
Gwin had imbued her with some
Of his own boundless vitality
and assurance.
Dreams Revived
Her old dreams of success
were with her again. When
she heard Faust at the Metro
politan, she was Marguerite.
From her place in the balcony

Neither side had any score
toward game. 2 made an
opening bid of 1-No Trump
that both A and Y passed.
There were two sound reasons
why B should have passed:
first because he had no chance
to go game; second because
he had reasonable chances to
defeat rs declaration, with
six diamond tricks plus a side
ace. Instead of passing, B bid
Diamonds. All along 2 had
felt anxious over playing no
trump with so weak a suit as
diamonds. He welcomed the
opportunity afforded by BIS
declaration, to double for a bid
by Y. A was helpless, and
passed. Y bid 2-spades, which
was not encouraging to game
hopes; perhaps contracting
might have died short of game
had Il passed, but he made a
rebid, by going 3-diamonds.
This rebid showed considerable
suit length, so z figured that
quite possibly Y might be short
of diamonds. There was so
little honor strength outside
rs hand that he anticipated
his partners inability to bid
game, in case z bid only g.
spades, and z ventured an over
bid of 4-Spades.
B won the opening lead with
his K of diamonds. Y ruffed
the second lead. He had two
chances for going game. Y
could win five-odd in case oppos-
ing trumps were divided 33 be-
tween opponents, in this way:
Y could trump two leads of dia-
mondS, win three trump tricks
by leading spades, win three
heart tricks and three clubs
tricks, winning thus II tricks.
In case one adversary held four
trumps, Y could ruff one Of
them from his hand by leading
established clubs, thus giving
ABB one trick in each Of the
three suits diamonds, clubs and
spades. The first thing was
for Y to establish clubs by pull
ing the outstanding ace.
Y led a low club from his
hand; B played low to see
whether his partner held the
missing @; rs K won the trick.
Fearing that B might hold three
clubs to the Ace, Y dreaded
risking another lead of clubs,
lest A should ruff third round
