ming the trick with the ace, and returning a small diamond.
 Here MT Lochridge made very fine play-he refused to finesse the diamonds, as he knew South was endeavoring to get club ruff, so he went right up with his ace of diamonds, capturing North's king.
 He then trumped his eight of hearts in dummy with the king of spades, led his nine of spades, picked up the outstanding trump and then took the club finesse.
 On the ace of clubs he discarded his losing diamond and scored five odd on the hand for plus score of 920 points.
 Remember that his teammates playing the hand in the oppo- site direction-had scored a total of 820 points on the same board, giving their team a plus score of 1740 points on this one board alone.

Seeks Bout Between Knight,
RosenbIoom to Settle
Title Dispute.

7 ANSING, Mich, January ia
match between Make Rosen-
bloom of New York and Joe
knight of Cairo, Ga, is proposed
by James M. CBingo) Brown, president
of the National Boxing Association. to
settle the rather muddled titular situa-
tion existing in the light-heavyweight
division.
Brown has sent letters to boxing
commissioners in member States asking
approval of such match for the title
declared vacant a month ago. when
George Nichols failed to defend the
championship he won in the Milws ,lkee
tournament last year, within the pre-
scribed eight months period.
All of the replies received thus far,
Brown said, have expressed approval
and prospects are that any legitimate
promoter who arranges the bout in N
B. A. territory will receive official
sanction.
Rosenbloom is recognized in New
York as the light-heavyweight cham
pien, but never has won recognition by
the N B. A. Brown said he considered
Knight, on his record, worthy con-
tender" for the title.
The fight probably would result. in
the crowning of champion recognized
in all States.
Nichols is reported to have developed
trouble with his hands since he fought
his way through to victory In the Mil
waukee tournament.
