Average of forty bonds was 99.16, up .04. t: u United Press NEW YORK, Nov. 30.—Opening prices on the New York stock exchange today represented a continuation of the forward movement begun in Tuesday’s session. Mercantile issues, amusements and specialties continued in urgent demand and pivotal issues were strong. However, selling cropped out here and there, giving the list an irregular appearance. Midland Steel preferred spurted a point to ■ 236, a record high, Radio Corporation set anew peak at 98%, up %, and Montgomery Ward at anew altitude of 10414 was up 2 points. Loews Inc was in urgent demand, rising to 59%, up 1% points. American Republica spurted % to 75. American Foundry sold at 148, up 13% points. United States Steel, selling exdividend $1.75, was at 145%, up % point. General Motors was moderately active, rising 1 to 127. SearsRoebuck set anew record at 84%, up 1%. Bullish enthusiasm was revived by Tuesday’s sharp recovery in the industrial list. Buying orders poured in from interior points over night and further gains were scored by Tuesday’s leaders. MontgomeryWard and Sears-Roebuck attained new highs, while Stewart-Warner and Mack Truck also gained. Trading steadily grew in volunfe as the morning progressed. Active stocks were turned over in huge blocks, taxing the facilities of the Stock Exchange and causing the tape to run as much as twenty-one 'iuinutes behind the market. Mail order shares received additional stimulus from Chicago advices that November sales were running well ahead of last year. Large chain stores also will show sizable gains in gross for November. This improvement has been due to the purchasing power in the agricultural districts.

In the Stock Market

(By Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK, Nov. 30.—There is a great of Ford talk in the newspapers this morning but outside of the sentimental effect of the resumption of production I cannot cee its practical application as a stock market factor, for it also concocts increased competition. Money is the controlling influence plus the all prevailing optimism expressed in a nation-wide desire to participate in the ownership of industrial shares and which makes for the growth and prosperity of the nation. But it must be remembered that the upward movement cannot go indefinitely. No one can tell just what moment something may occur to force a change in the money situation or what sudden development may appear elsewhere to bring about a reversal of market trend. In your trading operations therefore* it would be better policy not to over extend your long lines.

Nov. 30.—1n the late trading Tuesday there was some buying that looked like a resumption of the Russian accumulation oi contracts which was so closely identified with the bull market of last summer.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

OATS DISPLAYS ONLY STRENGTH IN CHICAGO PIT Corn, Wheat Open Fractionally Lower With Bearish Reports. Bn United Press CHICAGO, Nov. 30.—Oats displayed the only strength of today’s opening on the Chicago Board of Trade, wheat and corn opening weak, on generally bearish conditions. Opening figures: Wheat, % to % cents lower; corn, M cent lower, and oats unchanged to % cent higher. Liverpool showed a continued weak tendency this morning, and the local market was expected to reflect the heavy tone there. Argentine news was unchanged, with conditions still generally favorable and the outlook bright for a large crop. Traders were planning cautious work today, awaiting developments. Export demand was slow. Temperatures dropped suddenly over thp corn belt iast night and belov/ freezing weather was imported this morning from parts of lowa and Illinois. The news is expected to weaken the com market, cold weather favoring crop curing. Locals were expected to continue to support the market today, in the belief that the November crop estimate was much too large. Sentiment in the oats pit showed signs of improving, but prices were still influenced by other grains. Provisions opened unchanged. Chicago Grain Table —Nov. :a— Prev. WHEAT— Hl"’7.

Keen Defensive Play of Whitehead Is Feature of Fifth Radio Bridge Game

KEEN defensive playing by Wilbur M. Whitehead was perhaps the outstanding feature of the fifth of this season’s radio bridge games, broadcast Tuesday night from Station WFBM, under arc-pices of The Times. Whitehead had for his partner one of the leading players and writers of the Northwest, Miss Annie B. Shelby of Portland, Ore., while Milton C. Work’s partner was a Californian of note in the .bridge world, Mrs. Catherine A- Streeter of Los Angeles. Mrs. Streeter, the dealer (South), had no choice but to pass with these cards: Spades, 6,5, 3; Hearts, A. 9; Diamonds, 8,5, 2; Clubs, J, 10, 9,7, 6. Miss Shelby (West) also held a worthless hand; Spades, K, J, 8,7, 2; Hearts, 5,4, 3; Diamonds, 7,4, 3; Clubs, 3, 2. Work (North) opened the bidding, Third Hand, with one No Trump, on these cards: Spades, A, Q, 10;

Hearts, Q, 10, 7,6: Diamonds, A, Q, 6; Clubs, K, 8, 5. In connection with this bid, Work gave his test for deciding whether a hand is strong enough for an original Third Hand No Trump, which requires an Ace or its equivalent better than average strength, with three suits stopped. In valuing a hand, count an Ace as 4, a King as 3, a Queen as 2, and a Jack as 1; and if you have three suits stopped and a count of 14, you have the equivalent of an Ace better than average and the strength for an original Third Hand No Trump. Work’s hand counted 17, and he had all four suits stopped, so there was no question about his bid. Whitehead (East) was tempted to make an informatory double. He held: Spades, 9,4; Hearts; K, J, 8,2; Diamonds, K, J, 10, 9; Clubs, A, Q, 4. However, he had only two worthless Spades, so the chances were that his double would produce an answer of two spades from his partner. As that answer might be made with only four small Spades, Whte-i head, holding only two small, would have to go to two No Trumps, in which there was small chance of making game in the face of his partner’s weakness (shown by her initial pass), and of Work’s strength (disclosed by his Third Hand bid). However, sitting over Work’s No Trump, Whitehead was confident he could stop opponents’ game, therefore he elected to pass and play the hand defensively. u n n ALL passed, and it was up to Mr. Whitehead to make an opening lead against Work’s No Trump. He selected the Jack of Diamonds from the stronger of his long suits. The Jgck is the correct lead from a King-Jack-10 combination. Mrs. Sireetei' spread her hand for Dummy. Work played from it the 2 cf Diamonds; Miss Shelby played the 3, and Work won with the Queen. WOrk then took time to estimate the game-going possibilities of his cards. He could count only foui sure tricks—the one already won with the Queen of Diamonds, his own Ace of Diamonds and Ace 01 Spades, and Dummy’s Ace ol Hearts. If he could take a double finesse in Spades, and win both finesses, he could gain two more tricks. If the King of Hearts were on his right, he could win an additional trick with the Queen of Hearts. The two additional tricks needed for game would have to be made in Clubs. However, these possibilities, were far from being probabilities, as Work had only one entry in Dummy, the Ace of Hearts, which he could use either to get to Dummy’s Clubs, in case he should be able to establish the Club suit, or to take one finesse in Spades. It seemed to him that the best chance lay in the establishment of

the Club suit. Having only the one entry in Dummy, which he would need later to run the Club suit should it be established, Work was obliged to lead Clubs from his own hand. Making tne best of a bad situation, Work led the King of Clubs, choosing the King for two reasons: First, to avoid the possibility of' blocking Dummy, in case the high Clubs should fall and the Club suit itself provide a re-entry to Dummy; second, because if an adversary held the Ace without the Queen, he might be expected to pass the first Club trick, assuming Work to hold the Queen. In this case a second Club lead might result in dropping the Ace and Queen together, or.'K not, might be won by an adversary who would continue with Diamonds instead of driving out the Ace of Hearts entry in Dummy. # r ON Work’s King of Clubs, Whitehead played the 4, holding back his toppers in order, if possible, to exhause Work’s Clubs before the suit was established in Dummy. Dummy played the 6; Miss Shelby the 2. Work continued with the 5 of Clubs; Whitehead played the Queen; Dummy the 7; Miss Shelby the 3. Whitehead knew there was one Club outstanding, held either Miss Shelby or Work. If Work held it and should lead it, two good Clubs would be established in Dummy. But to bring them in, Work would have to utilize Dummy's only entry, the Ace of Hearts. To kill this entry while he still held command of the Club suit, Whitehead deliberately led and sacrificed his King, of Hearts. Work had feared -his play by an adversary. He was helpless, > however, because if he played low from Dummy on this Heart, another Heart lead would force the Act. Therefore, he played the Ace from Dummy. Miss Shelby played the 3 of Hearts; Declarer the 6. Having been thwarted in his attempt to make Dummy’s Clubs, Work took advantage of the only opportunity open to him in the situationby leading the 3 of Spades from Dummy, for the purpose of trying a double finesse. Although he knew he could take but one finesse himself, he hoped an adversary might be forced to give him the second. Miss Shelby played the 2 of Spades; Declarer finessed the 10; Whitehead played the 4. Work then led the 8 of Clubs; Whitehead played the Ace; Dummy the 9, and Miss Shalby discarded the 4 of Hearts. n it u WHITEHEAD led the King of Diamonds; Dummy played the 5; Miss Shelby the 4; Work the Ace. Work returned the 6 of Diamonds rather than lead away from his tenaces in Spades and Hearts. Whitehead played the 9; Dummy the 8; Miss Shelby the 7. Whitehead then led his good 10 cf Diamonds. Dummy discarded the 5 of Spades; Miss Shelby the 7 of Spades; Declarer the 7 of Hearts. Then, in order to protect any possible honor in Spades his partner might hold, Whitehead chose Hearts for his next lead, laying down the Jack instead of a lower one to make sure that Dummy could not get the lead with the 9 of Hearts. Dummy played the 9; Miss Shelby the 5; Work the Queen. Work returned the 10 of Hearts; Whitehead played the 2; Dummy discarded the 10 of Clubs; Miss Shelby the 8 of Spades. Work led the Ace of Spades; Whitenead played the 9; Dummy the 6; Miss Shelby the Jack. Work’s last card, the Queen of Spades, was lost to Miss Shelby’s King, which left Work one trick short of game, although he made one more than his contract. He scored 20 for two tricks in No Trump and 30 for Aces, which was the utmost score possible against the splendid defense that Whitehead put up in the early stages of the play.
