the strong support for partners suit (diamonds) is equivalent to an ad- ditional half Honor Trick.
 A jump response of 2 Notrump over partners opening bid of 1 in suit is Forcing to Game and re- quires to 1-2 Honor Tricks. With Honor Cards and all the unbid suits stopped or if you have passed originally the requirements may be shaded to 1-2 Honor Tricks. When responding with Notrunp the hand should be balanced and us- ually contains no biddable suit. If your partners suit is a major suit prefer if possible a double raise in the major slit to the response of No Trump.
 Bid No Trump over partners opening bid of 1 Heart with the following hand

 On the following hand we will bid 3 Hearts in response to partners opening bid of 1 Heart.

 Our bid of Hearts with this hand informs partner that we think that suit offers the maximum possibil- ities. A bid of 2 No Trump would not give partner the picture of the splendid Heart support held. It is often easier to arrive at Slam when holding minimum requirements if a suit is agreed upon as soon as pos sible when you are sure that suit offers the maximum score.
 When partners opening bid is a minor suit, prefer the 2 No Trump response to Double Raise as game in no trump can frequently be made when in a minor suit is im- possible. For example bid 2 No Trump over your partners opening bid of Diamond with this hand: s. K xx H. A Q X
 D. K Jx K c. Q xx When your hand contains a bid- dable suit, generally prefer the suit takeout to the bid of No Trump You can show any added values on the next round of bidding. Respond with Diamonds with this hand ovel your partners opening Spade bid:
 s. X H. QJx D. A o 10 X c. A xx On the second round of bidding you can carry the bid to game cas- fer in No Trump or Spades depend ing on your partners rebid.
 To bid No Trump over your partners opening bid of 1 in a suit requires from 3 1-2 plus to 4 Honor Tricks, and no biddable suit.

ANN ARBOR, Sept. 13.-The
old adage about four out Of five

be changed-for more girls are

gan this Fall than ever before,
though the total university en-

the advanced freshman enroll
ment for women is higher than
ever before. according 10 Ira M.
Smith, university registrar. Total
freshmen enrolment TO date is
about the same as last year. with
the increase in girls compensating
for the decrease in freshman men.
Registrar Smith believes that
the drop in male enrolment is
due 10 the number of jobs created
by the defense program, and the
increase in co-eds is due to the
same reason - more jobs for
fathers.
Total university enrolment is
expected to be about IL per cent
less than last year University
enrolment usually follows the
trend in the Summer session,
which showed decrease II

10 Smith. The University of Cali
fornia enrolment this Fall also
showed a drop of IL per cent, and
Smith expects this 10 be the gen.
eral trend throughout the nation.
Little increase is anticipated ir

Biggest drop should be in the
graduate and law schools. The

ment in that school.

Army its divisions have been trained
as units and the primary purpose
of the maneuvers is to teach the
staff and command officers to CO.
ordinate the movements of their
units in an assembled army on the
field. No surer method of demon
strating the capabilities of a COM
mand officer can be found than in
this form of training, Army officers
emphasized.
Younger Officers Needed.
The War Department has given
careful consideration to the best
method of determining those to be
promoted. The need for younger,
more vigorous and capable officers
in the higher commands is appar-
ent from the lessons of the European
war, officials pointed out.
Available for selection will be the
lieutenant colonels and majors of
the promotion list of the Regular
Army. These officers comprise a
large group, all of practically the
same length of service. The ma
jority of them have had World War
experience.
Under existing regulations, per-
manent promotions to the grade of
lieutenant colonel from the rank of
major occur on the completion of
% years of service, provided a spe-
Gifted number of those years has
been in the grade of major The
department said there are a con-
siderable number of Regular Army
ma jors with more than % years
service whose promotion has been
delayed pending the completion of
the required years Of service as a
major.
Since many of the lieutenant colo
nels of the Officers Reserve Corps
now on active duty have reached
that rank after but l8 years of serv-
ice, the limitation imposed on Regu-
lar Army majors is to be Cancelled
