UNDERTAKING AN ACE

YOU WILL seldom find a worse
opening lead against a suit con-
tract than the underlead Of an ace.
Somehow it nearly always turns
out that the declarer or dummy
has singleton and can trump the
second round, thus putting your
ace to sleep. But along during the
play Of the hand there are situa-
tons which compel undertaking
an ace. The original considera-
tons of the blind lead are gone
then, and you act with your eyes

and told his story. 1t was one about
irving to take care of his mother in
some little town in Wisconsin, no job,
no relief. In desperation he sent his
aging mother to an aunt, somewhere
east. Sadler started west, to find an
uncle in Montana.
Noticing him weave as he leaned
against the rail, the judge asked why
he did not stand up straight. He told
the Judge he was afraid he would
fall as he was so weak, not having
eaten for three days. Patrolman

spoke to the judge, and asked that the
prisoner be turned over to him before
being ordered to leave town.

FESSIONS" OF CHICAGO
V0JITnS

CHICAGO, June (Harold Preece
for CNA)-Belief that Chicago police
forced a rape-murder confession from
two Negro youths by usual third de-
gree beatings was reinforced this week
when police barred a lawyer from see
ing the two accused.
Lieutenant Daniel F. Healy of the
Detective Bureau flatly refused to per-
NIT an attorney to interview Thomas
Crosby and Earl Hicks, the 18-year-
old boys, who allegedly confessed to
the rape-murder of Mrs. Florence
Johnson, white, as we'll as numerous
other crimes committed over the
country.
Nobody can see them," Healy said,
"and I'm not giving any information !"
Echo Hickerson Case
Echoes of the Mack Hickerson case
were heard as police also attempted
to pin the murder of Agnes Kutchka,
18-year-old white student nurse, last
August Fl, as we'll as the killing of
several white women in California, on
the two youths. Hickerson was also
accused of the murder of Miss Kutch-
ka, and police tried desperately but
unsuccessfully to connect him with
numerous major crimes.
Under police pressure, Crosby "con,
fessed" to having killed Mrs. Florence
Thompson Castle, Los Angeles night
club entertainer two years ago and
having scrawled the words "Blacl
Legion" found on her mirror after tn,
killing.
