Pasquotank County ABC Board.
Mr.. Jacocks would not divulgc on
what information he based his
charges, b., it is pretty well
known that the ABC Board has
had q Norfolk detective agency
employed for at least two months.
The ABC Board IS allowed BY
law to spend from five to ten per
cent of its profits for enforce
ment of the liquor laws. This is
the frs instance Of the board
making use of this prerogative.
All but two of the indicted par
ties had been arrested up till last
night, and all those arrested had
posted S1O0 bonds for their ap-
pearance in Recorders Court
Wednesday morning.
Those seen yesterday were
frankly worried. They didn% seem
to think their punishment in court
would be anything worse than a
fine, but they were seriously Wor-
ried over the prospect that their
places of business would be pad
locked following the trial.
THE ABC store sells us all the
liquor we can tote away from the
store, and then the ABC Board
turns around and has us arrested
for selling it," moaned one of the
hapless culprits last night. 1T
looks like they don't appreciate
our business, and we are the best
customers they have gOS."

Playing the hand at six diamonds
doubled, Mr. Weilar trumped the OPEN
ing heart lead and then thought the
situation over. His partners bid of
four spades had been doubled by
East, thus almost surel marking
that play with the king of spades.
His first play, therefore, was to lead
to the ace of spades, then play the
queen through East. When East COW
cred with the king, Mr.. Weilar
trumped.
The natural play would then be to
lay down the the ace of diamonds,
as there were only two missing. How
ever, Mr. Weilar knew that he would
need an extra entry to dummy in
order to establish the fifth spade. In
addition he did not think that West
would have doubled with the singleton
king of trumps. Hence Mr.. Weller
conceded trump trick by leading
low from his hand up to dummy s
nine. West won with the king and
played the queen of clubs in a be-
lated effort to remove one of dunn
my's re-entries.
After winning with dummy's ace,
Mr.. Weilar trumped a small spade,
then returned to dummy's nine of
diamonds and was able to discard
his two remaining clubs on the two
good spades.
Mr.. Weilar had been somewhat
doubtful as to the proper play, but
we assured him his technique was
fiaWless.
