SPOTTED POND TURTLE.
(ClemmyS guttatd.J
By liIIion Cox Athey

September is the month to revisit
the marshes, ponds and small
streams where you saw so many
lively outdoor folks in Spring. Spot
ted pond turtles are definitely con-
ference-minded. You find small
and large groups of them basking
in the sun for hours on a partially
submerged log or other object in
the home places they love. Your
rude entrance into their convention
camps sends them tumbling in un-
djgnified numbers into the muddy
water below. Stand by. In a short
time yellow dotted black head
will poke out of the muddy water
and awkward efforts Of the sparsely
webbed feet will enable the turtle
to assume his place at the confer
ence table. In a short interval, the
entire company will be sitting In the
sun, only their blinking eye indi-
eating they are alive.
You cannot fail to recognize them,
they are never more than four in
ches long. On their smooth black
carapace upper shelD are many
bright yellow spots, and these are
repeated on the small pointed head.
The legs and underparts are salmon
colored. These turtles are the most
aquatic members of their tribe.
Most of their hunting is accom-
phshed in the pond grasses where
they seek small dead fish, water
beetles, nevis and other helpless
neighbors.
In August the mother chambers to
sunny spot where she makes a
pocket in the soft earth. Her white
rough-shelled eggs are incubated by
the sun. She assumes no response
bility after placing them In the
excavated pocket. AS soon as the
youngsters hatch they creep up
from their sandy blankets and make
straight for the water.
These turtles enjoy the same
range as do the Wood frogs. SO
you see them in large numbers in
the Spring. The turtles are active
foes Of tadpoles found in countless
numbers in the pond shadows.
Captive turtles will pull under let
tuce leaves tossed on the surface.
This would indicate that the stream
dwellers vary their meat diet with
green's. And remember these turtles.
starve to death If they are unable
to submerge their heads entirely
under water when they dine.

)Goren on Bridge

The bidding:
South West North East
l heart Dbl. Redbl. Pass
Pass Pass
Opening lead, jack of diamonds.
The proper manner in which to
behave when partners opening bid
has been doubled by the next OPP
ponent. is the subject of consider
able speculation among average
players. One of the popular notions
is that any bid over the double
shows weakness. We have tried on
a number of occasions to point out
the fallacy of this doctrine.
On one point, however, there Is
universal agreement. And that is,
that q redouble indicates a good
hand. The accepted convention
provides that the redoubler becomes
the temporary captain of the team
and that the next bid should be
passed around to him by partner, at
which point the redoubler will take
appropriate action. He promises
not to pass. In other words, he
must either double the opponents or
carry on the auction for at least
one more round, The redouble an
nounces no particular type of hand
and may or may not have support
for partners suit.
The question is frequently put to
me, How much in the way of a
high card count is required in order
to justify redouble?" No hard
and fast rule can be laid down. A
redouble is justified on any hand
that has a reasonable prospect of
going game, assuming it contains
some honor strength. Where good
support is held for partner less
high card strength is required. With
hands Of scattered strength I would
say that redouble should be made
on any hand that Is above average
in high cards. Can average hand
is 10 points) So that when II or
more points are held a redouble Is
indicated even without support for
partner.
An extreme case involving this
point is today's hand, which was
played in a recent team-of -four
match.
South decided to make an un-
orthodox opening bid of one heart
against his vulnerable opponents.
His previous experience against this
pair had shown that they appeared
to have difficulty contending against
competitive bidding.
Subsequent events proved his psy-
chology to be sound. Vests double
was a little on the shady side and
North was at loss to decide what
action to take. The heart situa-
tion was not appealing, but for pur-
poses of defense against the opposi-
ton. his hand contained great value,
particularly if the response hap
pened to be in one of the minor
suits, which he naturally intended
to double for penalties. The re-
double was, therefore, selected,
asking partner to pass the next call
around to him. The partner passed
and so did every one else, and North
for a moment did feel rather sheep
ish as he placed the trumpless
dummy on the table.
West led the jack of diamonds,
and with careful play the declarer
managed to make an overtrick for
score of 67O points. West could
have saved something out of the
wreck by escaping to one spade.
which would have been doubled but
would have yielded a considerably
lesser harvest.

ANCHORAGE IS
 ISOLATED BY
 FLOODS TUES.

ANCHORAGE, Aug. l9-Anchor- age was cut off from land transpof- tation to most of the rest of Alas ka Tuesday as result of damage from heavy rains to the Alaska Railroad and highways. Three high way washouts and one on the rail- road account for the isolation.
 No trains were expected to run 10 Fairbanks for several days due to washout of some 200 feet of struc- ture at the Kashwitna River bridge at Mile l99 north of Willow. False work of the bridge went out, accord ing to reports from ARR officials where a permanent steel span IS ,xpected to be completed within the next two years.
 The Valdez road was out m large section one mile this slde ol Valdez where flood waters went over the dike, M. c. Edmunds, Alaska Road Commission superintendent was advised.
 On the Alaska highway, flooding rivers took out the approach to the Big Gerstle Creek bridge between Big Delta and Tok.
 The approach to the Castner bridge between Paxson and Big Del ia was also a casualty ot the re- cent heavy rains.
 A cloudburst reported at Tok Junction is suspected of having caused further damage, according to the road commission, but no re- ports had been received yet tocay.

JUNEAU CHAMBER TAKES ACTION IN
 MARITIME STRIKE
Also 10 Investigate Close of Southeast Alaska
 Eishinq Season

The Juneau Cham1er oI Com merce is studying and seeking in- formation in regard to the closing of the fishing season in Alaska. The matter was brought to it's particular attention by the Wrangell Chamber of Commerce which wired request l ing the Juneau's Chambers stand on the closing by the Fish and Wildlife Service. The wire was read at todays Chamber meeting. The Wrangell Chamber requested that the local group join with them in protest should the closure remain in effect more than one week.
 The Executive Board of the local organization has sent a telegram to Wrangell advising them that it has gone on record favoring conser- vation measures which might be necessary to replenish the depicting salmon run, however, since the action on the part of the F WIS covered such large area it is pos sible that certain areas may have needlessly been closed and the local group would welcome such informa- ton.
 Interested in preventing interrup- ton of AlaSka's steamship service and planning to ask that means be taken to head-off the tentative maritime strike slated for Septem- Ter 2, the Chamber decided to post pone further action on the subject in light of this weeks union-NLRB actions. Curtiss Shattuck Of the Transportation Committee sug- gested that the Chambers proposed communications not be written un- til the results are determined
 Mayor Waino Hendrickson and President Joe Mclean met with H. F. Cheney, President of the Ju- neau Spruce Corporation, last night and reported to the Chamber they advised him the Chamber will CO., operate with management and labor for the best interests of the com munity and will give his company full support.
