BANDITS KIDNAP, BIND MOTORIST Frank Moorman Ss Tied to Fence, Car Taken. While police today sought two young bandits who robbed two men Monday night, Frank Moorman, 3603 Washington boulevard, was locking for his automobile. As he stepped into it at the Hotel Antlers Monday night a flashilydressed young man sat in the front seat with him, pressed a revolver against his side and cautioned: “Wait for my buddy. We're going to use you.” The bandits forced Moorman to drive on East Eighty-sixth street, a mile east of Nora, where they bound him to a fence and drove away, promising his car would be abandoned in the 800 block North Alabama street. It has not been recovered. Moorman struggled half an hour to free himself from the fence and walk to a house from which he called police. The bandits later robbed William Winters, 62 North Holmes avenue, of watches valued at $65 and cash, on River road.

VETERAN GIVEN COURT LENIENCY Jobless, Forged Check to Feed Hungry Family. Admitting he forged a sl2 check to buy food for his wife and family, Clarence Gorman, 31, war veteran, is at liberty today under suspended sentence of 2 to 14 years at the Indiana state prison, following trial before Criminal Judge James A. Collins. Tried Monday, Gorman told Collins he would spend the rest of his life in prison for the offense if assured his wife and children would be taken care of. “I am not a criminal, but I had been without a job for months and I was not going to watch my family starve,” Gorman told Collins. While a jail prisoner, Gorman was told of his family being ousted from a “home” east of Ft. Benjamin Harrison. Later, county officials provided temporary relief. “It should not be forgotten this man was among thousands who fought and won the World war,” Collins said in suspending sentence.

HOW to PLAY &4*BACK6AMON

Initial plays in the game are described in the following article, the seventh in a series on “Today’s Backgammon’’ Elizabeth Clark Boyden has prepa. ed for The Times and NEA Service. Mr?. Boyden is the author of “The New Backgammon’’ and co-author of “Contract Bridge for 1930’’ and “Contract Bridge for 1931.’’ BY ELIZABETH CLARK BOYDEN Written for NEA Service IN following the initial plays as recommended below the reader is urged to make each play for himself on a backgammon board and picture it as played by both Black and White. We considered, yesterday, the four most advantageous moves. When two people are playing consecutive games so that it. is possible to throw doublets for the opening move, it is, of course, a great advantage/ Doublets permit four moves to be made and it is never necessary to leave a blot. All doublets except double fives permit the player, if he wishes, to block two points. There is just one advantageous way to play double fives, which is to bring two men from point 12 in the opponent's

outer table first to point 8 in the player’s outer table and then on to point 3 in the player’s inner table. tt tt DOUBLE fours can be played in exactly the same way with two men from point 12 which brings them to the valuable point 5, which is so important to cover. Double fours also can be played to cover two points by playing two men from point 12 in the opponent's outer table to point 9 in the player’s outer table and two men from point 1 in the opponent’s inner table to block the opponent’s valuable point 5 in his inner table. These are both very fine moves. Double threes should be played to either cover the player’s bar point by bringing two men ail the way from point 12 in the opponent’s outer table —or to cover two points by playing two men from point 8 in the player’s outer table to cover point 5, and two men from point 6 to point 3 in the player’s inner table. This leaves a blot on point 8, but has the advantage of covering three points in the player’s home table

on which the opponent can not enter a man from the bar. Double twos also can be played in two ways. The player can move two men in two moves from point 1 to point 5 in the opponent's inner table —or he can block two points by moving two men from point 12 in

most advantageous moves are those which permit a player to block a point. Throws which permit tljis are one and three which blocks point 5; one and six which blocks the bar point, and two and four which can be played to block point four in the player's inner table. There are two throws, permiting a player to block a point, which are not always played to do so. The first of these is three and five, which can be played to block point 3 in the player’s inner table. This is the safe way to make this move and it should always be played so by people learning the game. Experienced players feel it separates the men a little more than is desirable and so make the more risky play of moving one man from point 12 in the opponent’s outer table all the way in two moves to point 5 i r i the player’s inner table. The danger of leaving a blot on point 5 is justified only by the advantage of blocking this point on the next throw if it is not hit by the opponent. # a a FOUR and six can bf played to cover point 2 in the player's inner table but this brings these men so far into the table that they can not be used again. For this reason many fine players play a man from point 1 in the opponent's inner table two moves which brings him to point 11 in the

opponent's outer table. If not hit on the next play, this man has an excellent chance to escape. The only other throw considered really advantageous is a five and six which allows the player to bring one man from point 1 in the opponent's inner table all the way to point 12 in the opponent’s outer table. In the next article we will discuss the best way to handle the checkers when the first throw is definitely poor.
