SEEK SUSPECT FOR QUIZZING IN ZELLER KILLING Detectives Begin Hunt for Man Said to Know Shooting Facts. Murder of Charles Zeller, 43. of 320 East Southern avenue, appeared no nearer solution today as detectives began their second day’s questioning of a man arrested Monday night as a suspect in the fatal shooting of the operator of the Butchers’ and Packers’ lottery. Zeller was shot three times in front of his home Wednesday night by one of two bandits who held up Zeller and Don Cutshaw, 602 North Sherman drive, who was with him. Zeller died Saturday from the bullet wounds. Detectives, ft was said, already had begun an intensive search for another man who is said to know facts about the shooting. It was admitted by police today that If the second man was found the murder might be solved. Word went out to the former customer of the lottery, which was to have been drawn the night Zeller was shot, that the lottery had been discontinued, it was said today. Agents for the lottery were told they were off the pay roll and additional tickets will not be sold.

Keen Thinking Shown by Expert in Radio Bridge
The Radio Bridge Game—No. 18 ! in Milton C. Work's current seriesbroadcast Tuesday from station WFBM was notable as a demon- | stration of the way in which a Bridge expert makes advantageous ; use of the inferences he draws from [ the bids of the various players. The exhibition players were: Mrs Harry B. Jones of Youngstown, 0., Mrs. Isabel Jenkins of Ottawa, I Canada: Ely Culbertson of New York City, and Lieutenant Alfred ;M. Gruenther, U. S. A., of West ■ Point. | Gruenther, as Dealer, South, held: : Spades, A. 7,6, 4; Hearts, 8,7, 4; ; Diamonds, K, Q. 8. 6,5; Clubs. 8; not a strong hand, but with its fivej card Spade suit headed by KingQueen, and its side Ace, too strong : to pass. He bid one Spade. Culbertson, West, bid one No Trump, on: ' Spades, K, J; Hearts, A, K, J; Diai monds. A, 4,3; C.ubs, A, K, Q, 6, j3. While he had the adverse suit I stopped only once, his hand unassisted assured eight No Trump ; tricks supposing that the Clubs ; would run. Mrs. Jones, North, was obliged to pass. Her hand was: Spades, Q, 10. 8; Hearts, Q, 5,3, 2; Diamonds, |9, 7; Clubs, 10, 9. 7, 4. Mrs. Jenkins, East, holding Spades. 9. 5,3, 2; Hearts, 10, 9,6; Diamonds, J. 10, 2; Clubs, J, 5, 2. had no possibility of a bid. Gruenther, who had bid the lull strength of his hand on the first round, could do nothing but pass on; the second. Mrs. Jones, North, appreciated that since her partner's Diamond j suit had been strong enough to bid, it furnished a more advantageous opening than either of her own four-card suits; so she led the 9 of Diamonds. When Mr. Culbertson. West, surveyed Easts hand as Dummy, he saw it held substantial assistance in its lowly Jacks; the Jack of Clubs solidified that suit, and the JackTen of Diamonds enabled Dummy to i cover North's 9, thus forcing Gruenther, South to play a Diamond honor and break the back of his Diamond suit. On Dummy’s 10 Gruenther played the Queen; Mr. Culbertson, West, Declarer, false-carded the 4. a st a r > RUENTHER could not afford to lead Diamonds away from his K-8 up to Declarer's Ace and Dummy’s Jack; neither did he want to start the Spade suit, as to do so might hasten the drawing of the Spade Ace from his hand. He particularly wanted to retain the Ace as an entry until after his i partner had obtained the lead, if j that were possible, and continued ! the Diamonds through Dummy's j Jack. Tire singleton Club obviously was | a bad lead: so Gruenther’s only j choice was to lead Hearts. General- | ly when leading from a three-card i suit up to weakness in Dummy, the j highest of the three is chosen; but ! in this case Gruenther led the 4- : spot, his lowest Heart, as he wanted
the Declarer to place a high Heart in his hand. He hoped to deceive the Declarer i into finessing, thereby permitting j North to obtain the lead. But Culbertson did not yield to the Heartfinesse temptation. He knew he could finesse later if he wished to; while Gruenther, South, might have the Queen of Hearts, it would place Declarer in j a serious position if North won this j trick with It and established the Diamonds—as she could do by another Diamond lead—while South j still had the Ace of Spades. Culbertson was certain South had; the Ace of Spades because without j it South would not have had the j strength for his initial Diamond bid. j Even if he held both the Queen of Spades and the Queen of Hearts with his King-Queen-high Diamond suit, he still would have to hold the Ace of Spades to aggregate the two quick tricks his original bid indicated. a a tt OO to trick two Culbertson played the Ace of Hearts; North played the Trey, knowing she could complete the signal or not, as seemed advisable on the next round of Hearts; Dummy the 6. Declarer then took the Ace and King of Clubs, North playing the 4 and 7; Dummy the 2 and 5; South j the 8 of Clubs and the 4 of Spades, i discarding the Spade instead of a card from his worthless Heart suit to mislead Declarer into thinking he was guarding a Heart honor. Declarer continued Clubs, lead-1 Ing the Trey, in order to enter Easts I hand for the lead through South he mrst make to gain his ninth and game-saving trick. North played the 9 of Clubs; Dummy the Jack; South the 6 of Spades, continuing his deceptive tactics. Declarer could count eight sure tricks—five Clubs, two Hearts, and ] one Diamond. He had deduced that South must hold the Ace of Spades, therefore a Spade lead from Dummy must make the King in the closed hand a winner. So, although the play of Gruenther, in the South, indicated that the Heart Queen was in his hand and and that a Heart finesse w'ould suci ceed, Declarer was too seasoned a player to be decoyed away from what was practically a certainty into taking an unnecessary risk, particularly when the latter play must ibe based upon inferences drawn ! from the play of a skilled adverAMUSEMENTS FREE DANCING / Every Evening In New LYRIC BALLROOM HHIPf Shft Talks!

sary who might be anxious to deceive a trusting Declarer. ana /CONSEQUENTLY, Declarer- led Dummy’s Deuce of Spades to the sixth trick; South played the 7, hoping that Declarer would finesse and give North the lead; Declarer played his King, for reasons already explained; and North played the 8. To trick seven Declarer led the Queen of Clubs; North played the 10; Dummy discarded the 9 oi Hearts and South the 5 of Diamonds. Declarer continued with the 6 of Clubs. North discarded the 5 of Hearts not wishing to complete her signal: Dummy discarded the Trey o' Spades, and South the 6 of Dia monds. In making this discarc South appreciated that it might be necessary for him to keep twe Hearts. Should he discard a Heart on this trick, and Declarer should then lead a Heart followed by a Spade, forcing South in the lead, he would have to lead away from his Diamonds. But Declarer, with game in his hand, did not risk trying to place the lead with the hope of making an extra trick. To tricks nine and ten he led the King of Hearts and the Ace of Diamonds, all players followed suit. The last three tricks he conceded to his adversaries. He scored 30 for his three tricks—game—at No Trump, and 30 above the line for his three Aces. In his talk on the way the hand was bid and played. Mr. Work commended Mrs. Jones, North, for drawing the correct, inference from Gruenther’s original Diamond bid, and deciding on his suit as the best one to open.
