Hockey Seemsto
Be Weathering
Economic Storm
President of National League
Notes Great Progress in
u. s. Since 1924
BY FRANK CALDER
President. National Hockey League)


Montreal, Que. Jan. 14.-tP,-Or-
ganized professional hockey. both in
the u. S. and Canada, appears to be
weathering the economic stress,
through which We are passing, re-
markably well.
Distress in some spots was bound
to be. The foresight Of the thinking
element in curtailing expenditures, the
establishing of salary limits, both in
dividual and collective. however. has
saved the ship from running on the
rocks.
Undergoing its greatest expansion
in those times when financial string
ency was about the last thing in sight
1t was, perhaps. not surprising that
when the economic tide did turn, the
cost of conducting professional hockey
clubs, the price of transfer of high
class players and salaries paid to the
outstanding stars. had reached hlth-
erto unheard Of figures.
The progress the game has made in
the U. S. since 1924, when the first
American city. Boston, entered the
ranks of organized professional
hockey, has been nothing short Of re-
Inarkable. There are records, Of
course, to show that ice hockey was
played in cities like New York, Bos-
ton. Chicago. Baltimore the first
hockey law suit, by the way, arose
from dispute over the possession Of
a trophy in Baltimore as far back as
1887 PHILADELPHIA and Pittsburgh be-
tore the present century was usherec
in.
But the game languished rather
than thrived until the entry OF the
organized professional plan. Since
then the game has become a favoritt
pastime for lovers of a red-bloodec
sport In the larger centers Of popula
ton from Boston to Los Angeles anc
from Houston to Duluth.

BY WIN. E. MCKINNEY
FRIDGE

Secretary, American Bridge League
As you know, 1t takes fewer tricks
to make game at no trump than ut
q suit, therefore 1t naturally follows
that 1t should be more difficult to
make game Ut no. trump than 1t Is
at . sutt-and 1t Is. due to the fact
that you cannot establish q side suit
BY ruffing one or more Of the low
cards In that suit. However. quite
often no trump Is the only spot at
which game can be made.
Many games are lost at no trump
due to.-the lack Of planning ON the
part Of the declarer. It Is quite true
that the natural procedure when
playing q hand ct no trump Il to
start In at once to establish your
longest suit and the one that can be
most quickly established. But there
are exceptions to this rule, 20 before
making your first play analyse the
play Of the hand from every angle.
For example, In the following hand
1t Is necessary for the declarer to
knock out the opponents ace before
making any attempt to establish his
long suit.

NEGRO VOTERS

ME Negroes are not free yet-not entirely,
as the twenty-third annual report of the
National Association for the Advancement of
Colored People shows. But they have been
making better strides toward the liberty which
the Constitution DEGREES.
The last important step resulted from the
supreme court decision upholding the right of
negroes to vote in primaries, a privilege long
denied them in certain southern states But
IN many places in the last their first -
primary they were barred. Relatively few
seem to have voted where the doors were
freely open to them.
In Dallas Tex, Negroes were permitted to
vote. Six voted at Beaumont few who
tried to vote at Fl Worth were turned awav.
At Port Arthur two Negroes attempted to vote,
but were ordered away from the polls. The
same was true in several other important
cities. At Sherman sixteen Negroes voted.
Hundreds of Negroes voted in North
Carolina. In South Carolina they we're barred
by grotesque rule providing that no one
could qualify as Democratic voter who had
not voted for Wade Hampton as Governor in
1876 and voted the Democratic ticket con-
tinuously since
In Tennessee the state primary board
refused to exclude Negroes. In Miami, Fla,
200 Negroes paid their poll taxes, but did not
vote, because of intimidation.
The results of the first voting appear dis
couraging. But confirmation of the right is
of extreme Importance The start toward
actual voting has been made.
The rest will depend to some extent upon
the determination of the Negroes themselves
to exercise their suffrage.
