OCHS ADDRESSES
EXCHANGE MEET
Calls For Maintenance Of
High Standards Of U. S.
Army And Navy

Members Of the Wilmington Elk
change club heard an address by Ma
jor William VanDyke Ochs, com
mandant of the New Hanover High
school ROTC unit, on the observance
of National Defense Week, at Their
weekly luncheon session at the Cape
Fear hotel.
Major Ochs expressed the belief
that "our national defense was moi
in any p%recarious situation today
and pointed out that I'VE will have
to be vigilant and keep up" the
high standards Of our army and
navy.
The speaker advised strongly
against showing any expressed
Partially for any one branch Of
national defense, as any n branch
can not Dc the job alone.
1.-THE infantry" he continued.
lis the queen Of battle and all
other branches of national defense
are auxiliaries. Aerial and mechan.
lied forces are important but they
can not win wars.
Even mechanical forces under
certain conditions must give way
to horse calvary and motor trans
p~ortation to pack animals. The Co
ordination Of all branches Is highly
important.
Major Ochs said the most impor-
tant thing in war today is morale,
clearly demonstrated in Finland
now where morale and physical
power are proving important fac
tors Of warfare.
Lets not lose our morale and the
spirit that has so long permeated
the American people," urged Major
Ochs in his closing remarks.

the club regarding plans for visit

. MCKINNEY ON BRIDGE
Use Warren System Cautiously Be Sure Hand Has Slam
Strength
This is the fourth Of q series
Of six articles ON the Warren
slam bidding convention.
BY VIM. E. MCKINNEY
Americas Gard Authority

Most slam bidding conventions
are abused because the average
player tries to make use of them tce
often. This is no less true of the
Warren slam method than of others
which, perhaps, do not give sc
much information.
The slam signal, four no trump
should be bid not only because a
player has the required two aces
or one ace and a void, but also
because he thinks slam can prob
ably be made and a contract of
five-odd is quite safe.
In today's hand, after North bid
diamonds and then showed heart
support, South was quite sure a
small slam would be good con-
tract If North held at least one
ace and the king of his suit, dia-
monds. South therefore bid four
no trump to learn North's high
card strength.
North's response of five hearts
showed three points. Theoreti-
cally this could be an ace and
king, or three kings; but South
knew 1t showed an ace and king
because he had three of the four
kings himself.
The proper final contract still
had to be carefully weighed.
South had never shown his dia-
