The Government sought re-
versal today of the District Court
ruling clearing John L. Lewis
United Mine Workers of contempt
in connection with the recent soft
coal strike.
The District Court of Appeals
was hearing argument that Judge
Richmond B. Keech erred when
he found the miners union did
not violate his earlier order to end
the strike forthwith. The strike
continued several weeks after
Judge Keech issued restraining
order.
Government attorneys had
asked Judge Keech to find the
UNIV guilty of both civil and
criminal contempt of court. The
judge declared that Justice De-
partment attorneys had failed TO
make out a case of guilt on either
count. However. only the civil
case can be appealed.
In similar caSeS-ln l946 and
1948-Mr. Lewis and the union
were fined total of $2,130,000 by
Judge T. Alan Goldsborough for
ignoring strike ending orders.
Judge Keech in the recent case
declared that the Government had
failed to produce evidence neces-
sary to support new doctrine"
laid down by Judge Goldsborough.
The doctrine was that pnon
is responsible for the mass actions
of it's members.
The two principal Justice De-
partment attorneys in the case. H.
Graham Morrison and Joseph M
Friedman, have been criticized in
some newspaper editorials. These

Auks can fly, but their powers OF
flight are poor. Some Of them have
such small wings compared to size
of body, that they find it hard to
rise in the air..
In the art of swimming, the
family is well of. Auks make long
trips by padding with their webbed
feet.
There used to be auks which
were much larger. and which were
more clumsy. They were known
as great auks." Now they are all
dead-or, at least, no one has re-
ported seeing one for the past LOG
years.
Great auks used to stand up like
penguins. Some Of them were 80
inches tall. giving them almost the
same height as the king penguin
which is second largest of the pen
gums. The emperor penguin is the
tallest in its tribe.

On the western side of the

jack should be given no considera-
ton.
Declarer, therefore, carefully
played the club jack In dummy In
the hope of winning the trick there.
He forthwith returned the heart
jack and when East didn't cover, he
played low. When Vests ten fell
on the jack, South successfully
finessed the seven spot on the sec
ond round of the suit. The ace and
king picked up East's queen and
South made three no-trump re-
doubled with an overtrick.
Declarer's analysis was completely
sound and his technique faultless.
That the bulk of the outstanding
hearts were in East's hand could not
be doubted, and there was no great
likelihood that West would show up
with the queen. 1t was far more
probable that West had a singleton
heart.
To guard against such holding,
declarer had to play with care. If
he fell into the error of cashing the
king first, he would be unable to pick
up the queen. The first-round finesse
of the jack was mandatory in the
hope that West held singleton ten.
West, in an effort to confuse the
issue, had tipped his mitt."

Penguins are found only in the
southern half Of the earth. Most
of them live within range of the
Antarctic Circle.
Up around the Arctic Circle we
might expect to find birds of the
same type, but you will look in
vain for penguins in that area.
You can find certain clumsy birds
near the Arctic Circle, however.
I am thinking of the auks, and
their close relatives, the puffins
and guillemots.
We may speak of auks as being
"out-of date" They are among the
birds which usually lay only one
egg year, and that egg is likely
to be placed in a hollow Of a cliff.
or on q fiat ledge. Laid on the
bare rock, without anything
around it which we could justly
call a. nest, the egg is open to
capture by one kind of enemy or
another.

Opening lead, five Of clubs.
1t Is not my practice to devote any
great amount Of time and space to
the subject of psychic bids. What
ever dramatic value they may have,
their practical advantages have been
grossly exaggerated. In today's
hand we are concerned with a bit
Of crime detection rather than a
study of the crime itself.
West, for reasons best known to
himself, opened with one heart. Per-
haps it was his purpose to talk the
opposition out of the contract in
which he believed they had the best
chance for game. His tactics BOOM
eranged in most unexpected man
ner and for the time being, at least,
left him with the impression that
crime does not pay.
East responded with one spade and
West passed, awaiting developments
North stepped into the breach with
double. East raised to two hearts
and now South, considering that it
was high time that he joined the
festivities, entered with bid of two
no-trump. which North raised to
three.
In the unfounded belief that the
opposition had been completely led
astray, and in the hope that the
club suit could be brought in with
the loss of only one trick, West
doubled. Norths redouble with a
partner who had previously passed
was the act of one who was feel
ing his oats.
When the club was opened and
dummy appeared, the psychic char
acter of Vests opening bid was
exposed. However, that knowledge
brought little comfort to declarer. If
his foot should slip, control of the
hand would be lost, for the fatal
diamond shift was sure to come.
On that analysis. it would seem
that the fate of the contract hinged
on bringing the heart suit home
without loss. East's raise made it
evident that any length in the heart
suit lay with him rather than West,
who had originally bid the suit, so
that a normal f1nesse up to dummy's
