shows at least three and one half
primary tricks, but, in addition, it
must be rich in tenace positions,
and today's hand has no tenace
positions.
The reason you should not bid
more than one spade is because
you need assistance from your
partner to make game. and If he
has the assistance, he will keep the
bidding open with chance giving
bid. OF course he hasn't, and he
properly passes.
You must lose three hearts, a
diamond, and a spade, and all you
can make with this fine big hand
is two-odd at spades.
This hand came up in recent
tournament, and 1 was surprised
to find that so per cent of the pairs
IN the room opened the bidding
with an original forcing two bid.
Tho original forcing two bid is
the most abused bid in contract to-
day. Every authority will tell you
that few real two bids come up in

Quarles had advanced to the
finals by technical krockouts over
two opponents.
AS a member of the freshman
team in his first University year,
Quarles went through the season
undefeated. AS a sophomore and
member of the varsity for the first
time he went through the season
without a defeat and then won
the conference championship IN

during this season that Quarles,
while fighting as a featherwelght,
moved up to the lightweight class
to fight Bobby Goldstein. of the
University of Virginia, and at thai
time lightweight champion, and
win a decision.
This year, his second as a vars,

Ten Are Added To Field
And Office Force, Cliff

| CHARLOTTE, Feb. 26.-The
largest addition to the force OF
the alcoholic beverage unit or ITS
predecessor the prohibition unit,
made in many years is announced
by James A. Clifton, investigator
in charge of the Carolinas unit.
Announcement of the names OF
10 additions to the Carollnas
force-nine investigators and one
clerical worker-was contained IN
a telegram to Mr.. Clifton from
Washington yesterday.
Three of the appointments
were of men formerly with the
prohibition unit but dropped IN
the wholesale dismissals last year.
The three who have been re-em-
ployed were E. N. Austin, of
Greenville, S. c., George Whlsen-
hunt of Sumter and R. W. Kay OF
Walhalla.
The addresses of the other in
vestigators were not known 10

died before taking the oath OF

The addition to the headquar-
tiers clerical force in the Builders
building was Mis- sLucille Brogan.
Mr.. Clifton did not know her adj
dress.
For the present the men will be
assigned to their home towns. Mr..
Clifton said.
This distribution will prevail
until Washington makes known
the new arrangements that are to
be made for law enforcement. II
is anticipated that the unit will
be transferred to the treasury de-
partment in the next day or two
and then Mr.. Clifton expects to
receive more specific orders for
the work of his investigators.
AS it is at present, much un-
certainty exists as to just what
methods and degree of state and
federal enforcement the unit is
to observe. Indications are that
