as the present borders of Poland.
Today, the animal can only be
found in very limited numbers in
areas of Kazakstan, part Of which
use to be Russian Turkestan. The
Soviet government has rigid rules
concerning hunting the Saiga.
Saigas, like all plains animals
must be stalked carefully, they have
wonderful vision and are clever at
disappearing.
The expedition sent out in 1929 to
obtain Saiga and desert plants for
the. habitat, together with photo
graphs, met with success. Two fe-
males and one male were secured.
Very little of the life story is
known. The Saiga has no economic
other than his unusual
amber -colored horns which are
worth their weight in gold to the
Chinese.

Well. I'm glad you said that. It
helps me to prove the point I am
about to make. That point is that
the Blackwood convention is one
OF the simplest bids, or series of
bids, in bridge.
Nine out of 10 times, when a
player bids four no-trumps or five
no-trump, the meaning of his bid
is clear and his partners response
is simplicity itself.
But what about the 10th time?
Complications do arise now and
then-uSually on hands where the
distribution on the cards is on the
fantastic side.
Is the Blackwood convention USE
less on these freak deals? DECIDEDLY
not. My mail indicates, however,
that many players are not familiar
with the parts of the convention
which tell you how to deal with
these rare cases.
Some players write in to say that
they get into trouble using the
Blackwood. That is because they
do not use the convention-but mis-
use 1t. have never recommended
that it be used on every big hand.
Blackwood on Bridge.
Remember out on lots of hands you
can find how many aces your part
ner haS-and still be in the dark
rs to whether a slam is makable.
Here are a few of the points my
correspondents write about:
Suppose you and partner have a
big hand and the only suit you can
play Is clubs. Each of you has one
ace. You bid four no-trump and
partner responds five diamonds"
Where are you then? How do you
get back to five clubs?
What happens if an opponent
puts in a bid over your four-no-
trump call. What action does part
ner take?
What do you do when partner
bids four no-trump and you have
. void suit. Do you count 1t as an
ace?
If you have all four aces do you
ask partner for kings by jumping
directly to five no-trump?
Is the four-no-trump always
captain of the hand?
Is every four-no- trump bid asking
for aces?
In the next few columns I want
70 answer these and other questions
relating to the Blackwood conven-
ton.

Tigers Get Close
Win Opening Game

The jackson College Tigers, on
a field heavy with mud and slush.
before a surprisingly large crowd
who braved the Indictment weather
and sat through most of the game
in rain, got their opening game
of the football season with a close
1877 win over the Alabama State
Hornets in Alumni Stadium at
Jackson College here Saturday
night.
The Tigers started their scoring
early for what appeared in the
beginning as though it might have
turned out to be a Tiger exhibition
of things to come. In the first
five minutes of play that saw
Evans and Twyner slashing away
at the Hornet line, Everette took
a long pass from Evans on the
Hornets six yard stripe, and after
a play and a penalty, Sparrow, a
tiger freshman back, went around
left and over for the first six
points. The try for the extra point
failed. The score Tigers 6, Hornets,
nothing.
The Hornets stiffened after the
first Tiger score and held the
Tigers at hey until midway the
second period when Willie Lewis,
the Tiger sophomore end took a
40-yard pass from Robert Hill in
side the Hornet 20, and after three
tries Hale went around right to
make the score 1910. The try for
the extra point failed.
The Hornets struck back with
determination and before the gun
had fired Bibbs took a long 40
yard pass as the Hornets threaten
