 Slam bidding is. of course, always thrilling. While the bidding in the following hand is not complicated. it is interesting and brings out sev- eral important bidding steps In the constructive one over one system Of
 The Bidding
 South, the dealer, must pass. as his hand contains no biddable suit no re-bid values. Do not consider bidding a no trump with this type of hand, as it must be great deal stronger.
 West will also pass. North has a choice of two bids--he may open with one spade or no trump. l believe the no trump to be the bet ter bid, as 1t will immediately tel! his partner that he holds an excep- tionally fine hand. Remember that an original no trump always shows a strong hand.
 East will pass. South has heard his partner say that he has a very fine hand. If that Is true. there is a possible slam in the hand. South's proper response Is three no trump.
 This jump to three no trump is a mild slam try. It Is by no means q sign-off bid. If South were not interested in going any further, he would simply bid two no trump and

his partner would bid three. but in jumping to three no trump ne states that he too has very fair hand.
 West passes and North can now show his spades with a bid of four Spades. This South will support with five spades. North should then 10 to five no trump telling his part ner that the spade suit Is only four cards in length. With this informa- ton South will then 60 to six nc trump instead of six spades.

MAKE Up LOSS
Erroneous Statement Given
to Court During Gas
Bandit Trial.

In connection with the conviction
of Charles Daunis for the robbery
of the Standard Oil Company serv-
ice station at Fall Creek boulevard
and Central avenue, a news story
in yesterdays issue Of The Times
inferred that employees of the COM
pany are personally liable for money
lost in holdups.
The news story was based on a
statement made from the bench in
criminal court, after the judge had
been given an erroneous impression.
Standard Oil filling station at
tendants are instructed to carry no
more than $40 on their persons, for
which amount the company assumes
all responsibility. Any amount above
that sum, they are instructed to
place in a burglar proof chest in the
station, through slot in the chest.
None of these chests ever has been
broken into. Employees do not know
the combination and a large sign to
that effect is posted at the station.
Also posted in the station is a $500
reward offer for the apprehension
and conviction of any one robbing
the station and 81 1000 reward offer
for the apprehension and conviction
of any one who kills an employe in
robbing a station.
