 4 RRZDGE \f I "" EXpERTS PLAY IT -
By VIM. F.. MCKINNEY

Secretary, American Bridge League
 Some day hope to see the pre- mium for honors abolished in con- tract.
 In the first place 1t seems un- just that you should deal 0 player all the cards in the deck-enough to allow him to make a small or q grand slam against you-and then, in addition to the slam bonus, the trick count and the game bonus. give him 100 to 150 points for hold-- ing all of those goods cards.
 But even worse than that Is the fact that the average beginner, when holding honors, allows 1t to influence his bidding. How often have you seen the beginners, when holding 150 aces, insist that the hand he played at no trump?
 Take, for example, the following hand which was played in a club duplicate game. Out of the Il ta- bles playing, only three pairs ob- tained q plus score. The others played the hand at either seven hearts or seven no trump. and of course neither can be made.
 The Bidding.
 The proper bidding is as follows: South and West pass and North mids one no trump. South bids two diamonds. While he can make q one over one spade bid. 1t is better for him to bid the diamonds so that he can show the distribution to his partner
 over two diamonds North should bid three hearts. South will now bid three spades. North, with his 150 aces, can now bid our no trump, inviting 0 slam.
 South should then bid five spades - rebuilding the spades at this point definitely shows six. card diamond suit and a hve-card spade suit. The diamonds were bid first. showing that they were longer than the spades, and the spades have been bid and rebid, showing the suit to be fivc-carder North,

The cave was recently discovered at
Mount Etna, near Beaver Greek, Md,
about go miles from Washington, and
Benn was detailed to make a geological
investigation He found some of the
most curious stalagmite and stalactite
growths, which have been in process
of formation ever since the ice age, yet
reported anywhere in the world. Among
them were formations, which had
grown up from the floor, closely re-
sembling the shape of a human brain.
A century ago they might have been
interpreted as fossiliZed brains of a
race of fabulous giants who had dwelt
in the depths of the mountain. Mr..
Benn brought one of them back to
Washington, and the brain-like ap-
pearance was SO striking that brain
expert expressed surprise at first sight.
brains" Are StaIagmites.
These stone brains, Benn explains,
are stalagmites, built up from the cave
floor by dispositions of lime from drop
ping water over period of many gen.
erations. Eventually a shape was
achieved which had the general con-
tours of brain, but with smooth
surface AS time went on the solution
of lime in the water drops became less
and less They continued to fall in
the same way, however, and eventually
began to reverse the process of build
ing UP, by dissolving lime from the
surfaces of the deposits. Thus they
slowly carved out the convolutions, SO
similar to those of the mammalian
brain.
The process is still going on. Nature
works slowly, and a thousand years
hence the stalagmites may be much
more brain-like. While the pattern of
the convolutions on both sides Of the
specimen brought back by Mr.. Benn is
roughly like that of the human brain,

CLARENDON, Va, June l0.-Lag-
ging interest in the forthcoming politi-
cal campaign was revived last night by
the Arlington County Republican Com
mittee when 1t decided to place a candi-
date in the field for the House of Dele
gates and set dates both for mass meet
tngs to select delegates to a county con-
Vention and for the State convention
The official call went out today.
The mass meetings will be held in the
various precincts the night of June 81
and the county convention in the Lyon
Park Community House on the following
night.

burg July and for the purpose of
selecting candidates for various State

gates to which any county in the
State is entitled, according to L. c.
Macpherson, county chairman, and is
exceeded by only three cities, Rich
mond, Roanoke and Norfolk. 1t repre-
sents third of the delegates from the
entire eighth district.
1t was predicted in various quarters
today that John Locke Green, who an
nounced himself as an independent
candidate for the House of Delegates
some time ago, would be given the Re-
publican nomination at the county con.
vention. Green, when questioned about
this, said that he would accept the
nomination if it is rendered him.
Affiliated With G. o. p.
Although he announced himself as
an independent, Green has been closely
aff1liated with the Republican party
since he came here several years ago
and is known to have the support of
several of the Republican leaders here.
The Democratic nominee is William D.
Medley.

CLARK TRIAL DUE
FOR Jury MONDAY.
Only Final Statements of
State and Argument by
Defense Remains.
By a STAFF Correspondent of The Star.

By Staff Correspondent of The Star.
ROCKVILLE, Md, June 10.-The
case of Berry E. Clark, 58-year-old for
mer clerk to the Board Of Montgomery
County Commissioners, on trial on
charge of embezzling county funds. is
expected to be submitted to the jury
late Monday afternoon.
Only final statements and arguments
of States Attorney Stedrnan Prescott
an6 three defense counsel remained to
be heard before the case is given to
the jury when Chief Judge Hammond
Urner halted the special session OF
court today.
Jury Unable to Agree.
Twice before a jury was asked to de-
eide charges made by the State, which
allege shortage of S54, 1000 in Clark's
accounts, and each time-last June and
in January of this year-they were un-
able to agree after celebrating Is
hours.
Today Prescott brought out that
Clark deposited approximately $4,000,
shortly before his dismissal as clerk, to
cover a shortage in that section of his
accounts pertaining to fees received
from building permits and civil costs
collected by the sheriff's office. The
prosecutor charged that $500 of this al
ready was deposited to the county,s ac-
count. About $4,000 was borrowed from
J. H. Cissell, Clark's brother In law, and
the remainder loaned to him by two
others, he declared.
The entire session was devoted to con-
tinuation Of rebuttal testimony pre-
sented by Prescott. j. Paul Bruntt,
cashier of the Montgomery County Ma
tional Bank, identified Withdrawals
from Clark's clerk account and subse-
quent deposits to his other He also
said the loans made by Clark were
placed to the credit of his clerk account.
Others Are Called Upon.
Prescott also called upon Cissell, S.
M. Hamilton, another brother -in-law
who made small loan; Mrs Mary
OBrien. clerk in the commissioners Of
flee, and John Lewis, assistant county
treasurer
Three defense counsel who will ad-
dress the jury in turn, F. Barnard
Welsh, E. Barrett Prettyman and Albert
M. Bouic, announced they would take
about 80 minutes each for the talks.

curiously human appearance in the
darkness-which seem to be standing
at attention like enchanted soldiers.
From the ceiling of the corridor ex-
plored hang stalactites of innumerable
sizes and forms. After little way the
descent becomes sleeper and progress
more difficult. One enters, says Benn,
a veritable forest of stalagmites of all
sizes and shapes One is in a sort of
fairyland jungle. Pillars, towers. fairy
grottos. steeples and castles appear to
the imaginative eye in the torchlight.
There are scenes that resemble those
of the polar regions. Deposits of mush-
room-like growth and of sparkling cal
cite are encountered.
The geological history of the new
found cave, Mr.. Benn says, is approx
mately the same as those of numerous
others in the Blue idge-Appalachian
region, where water, like a chisel in
the hands of titan artist, has cut out
great chambers under the limestone
mountains and fashioned all sorts of
fantastic figures.
