The Bidding

The Bidding
South, the dealer, had three high
card tricks and two biddable suits, SO
he started the contracting with one
spade. West found himself with a
spade bid, but should not make the
mistake Of overcalling with two
hearts.
When your opponents are bidding a
suit which you would like to bid,
leave them alone in that particular
suit. Don't even double with hand
of this type, as it will warn the OPP
Eonents to get into different con-
tract.
After the bid of one spade. North
responded with two diamonds. He
has q singleton spade and six-card
diamond suit.
This is just what East would like
10 have bid. After the two diamond
bid South bid three clubs. West then
stepped with a bid of three hearts,
which became the final contract.
The Play
North had the opening lead. He
had the choice of opening his single
ton spade or his partners club suit.
TO lead a spade would invite ruff
and 1t looks as If, with his three
hearts to the queen. he is going to
make a heart trick anyway.
North, when the hand was played
elected to open the club suit and
played the nine Of clubs. The ten
was played from dummy and South
won the trick with the queen. He

Extension of Time
Helps N. D. Highways

The $1,94O,O00 emergency federal
highway aid provided for North Da-
kota will be absorbed entirely for
road construction as result OF con-
gress extending the completion date
until January /, the time for COM
pletion OF emergency aid projects
according to A. D. McKinnon, head
OF the state highway commission.
Congress has extended the expira-
ton date, which was scheduled to
end June 80. Practically all projects
to be constructed from the 100 PEI
cent federal aid funds are under con-
struction.
II unfavorable weather had not in
terfered the projects would have been
completed last fall, McKinnon said
The extension Of time granted by
congress eliminates any possibility
that some of the funds would remain
unused because of failure to COM
plete all projects in June.

South did not wish to continue with
clubs for fear Of setting dummy's
jack up. He now shifted to his SINGLE
ton diamond, which North won with
the ace.
North had the diamond suit count
ed but decided to try to kill one Of
dummy's high diamonds and led the
ten Of diamonds. The jack was play
ed from dummy, South ruffed with
the deuce of hearts and the declarer
over-ruffed with the three. West

South now returned small spade,

Platter RECORD.
IS RATED BY
CHARLEY K.

NEW YORK, Dec. % G.N.SJ.
When the laurel wreaths are
passed around at the end Of the
year, it wouldn't be a bad idea
to give one to Charlie K. for con-
sistency.
Charlie K Is a five-year-old
gelding by Supremus-Birka and
is the property Of the B. B.
Stable.
Although but an ordinary platter,
the gelding has set a standard for
running in the money which Is
probably one of the outstanding
Of his division.
Consistency Unrewarded
It is customary to distribute
annual honors among the highest
class horses, those which have
won the most money, have taken
the biggest stakes and have
beaten the mightiest rivals. Con-
Sistency, except in the top classes,
goes unrewarded. This virtue,
however, is not confined only to
the mighty, but it travels also in
the lowliest circles, marking in
delibly the leader among dubs as
well as topnotchers. Accordingly,
even a dub should be rewarded
for meritorious work in his
division.
It is doubtful whether any horse
in the platter class is entitled to
more distinction than Charlie K.
Record Is Superb
His record this year is superb.
Gather this for the old record
book: Up to the time Charlie K
made his eleventh start Of the
Year at the recently terminated
Bowie meeting, he had won five
Of these, was second four times,
third one, and on only one solitary

portion of the purse, finishing
fourth.

sions. In his first start of the
year he just missed beating
