 If he led back a spade, it would run to the queen in the South hand, and South would then pick up the trumps and cash the rest of the tricks. A diamond return would be equally inffective as, after winning in the dummy, East's trumps would be drawn and the finesse taken against the king of spades, which was equally marked in the West hand by the bidding showing a two suiter of probably five cards ill each suit.
 With the play of the two high clubs and the two bids by West, it was not hard work to read the exact distribution of the West hand

COLORED GIRL
GIVES OFFICIALS
MUCH TROUBLE
THIRTEEN YEAR-oLD GIRLS
CASE IS BEING THOROUGH
LY INVESTIGATED BY OFF,
GERS

Winnifred Nettie Pauline Solo
man, 13-year-old colored girl, is
occasioning some thought to
Juvenile Judge Juliette Russell
and also to Probation Officer
Frank Velasco, to say nothing of
the sheriff's force.
The girl has been twice arrest
ed for serious offenses and has
been involved in other cases
which would entail less serious
punishment. Sreious charges are
grand larceny and forgery says
Bernard Waite, chief deputy.
Several days ago the girl, who
gave her name as Winnifred
Bethel, went 10 the home of Cap
tain P. L. Cosgrove and asked
that three dollars be sent by her
to young woman who was en-
ployed at the Cosgrove home, as
there was illness in the home of
the employee.
She was given check for
three dollars, which she took to a
local drugstore and it was only
through forging the name of the
payee, when she endorsed the
check that she could cash it, make
a small purchase in the transac-
ton, and departed with the pur-
chased article and the change.
The following day the decep-
ton was discovered and payment
of the check was stopped at the
bank. When the receiver of the
check went to the bank he was
advised payment had been
stopped.
Another case was brought to
the attention of the sheriff's de-
partment some time ago when the
girl was found guilty of the theft
of a bag from a home on White
head street, the bag containing
a sum of money, but the owner
refused to appear to Substantiate
the charges in court
To these charges, Mr.. Waite
said the girl had confessed, also
to other charges which had been
made and afterward proven, but
the girl being not within the age
permitting trial in criminal court,
has been brought before the jul
venile judge for her handling OF
the cases.
Judge Juliette Russell has the
case under advisement and a
thorough investigation is being
conducted by Probation Officer
Frank Velasco. In the meantime
the girl was given into the Gus
tody of Jailer Leon Roberts, and
is being held pending result of the
investigation.
