BANDITS CAUSE POLICE SHAKEUP Loot Bank of $50,000; Mayor Orders Action. B'/ I'nited Press LINCOLN, Neb., Oct. I.—The Lincoln police department went about the business of buying itself some guns and ousting its more timid patrolmen today all because some bank robbers caught the department with only one rifle in its armory. The rifle, incidentally, was the personal property of the chief. And so the bandits made away with abouff $50,000, caused the Lincoln National bank they robbed on Sept. 17 to merge with another and brought from Mayor Don Love an order to make the Lincoln police department a police department in fact as well as in name. Lincoln previously had boasted of having the smallest police force of any town its size in the country. "Those bandits," explained the mayor, "could have taken over our city and could have gone from one bank to another, looting them. Hereafter we're going to have a police department that is a police department." -CANADIAN LAW FAILS TO HALT SMUGGLING Border Rum Running Is Reported Again on Increase. By Scripps-llotcard Xetcspaper Alliance WASHINGTON. Oct. 1. The new Canadian export law. counted on to stop liquor smuggling into the United States, is proving ineffectual in entirely halting such operations. Smuggling bands, which temporarily suspended operations when the law became effective on May 31, are finding loopholes to evade its provisions and bootlegging again is on the increase, according to reports to Admiral Frederick C. Billard, coast guard commandant. "Commander Rasmussen has informed me that his men have encountered evidences of a renewal of smuggling operations, although he does not think they have reached such a large scale as before the law became operative,” Billard said today.

HERE’S the windup of the Indianapolis Home Furnishings Style Show contest, with more than SSOO in prizes at stake, any one of which you’ll be proud to place in your home. These eight pictures from the last group of the twenty-three, which are to be identified in the contest. Each picture represents a display window in one tc the twenty-three stores participating in the exposition. You identify it, write or print the name of the store beneath, paste it up, and send in all the pictures that you have been able to identify, to the Furniture Contest Editor of The Times. Twenty-two prizes are offered, ranging from an expensive Spanish chest humidor to table lamps, and including occasional chairs and tables, magazine racks, radio benches, and other pieces of valuable furniture. Thousands of people have viewed the lavish exhibits in city store windows since the show opened last Friday. The stores are open nights from 7 to 9, so that visitors can feast their eyes on the elaborate displays. The show will continue through Saturday. You have until Friday noon to send in your pictures. The judges will start work at once and efforts will be made to have everything in shape for announcement of prize winners in Saturday’s Times. Tomorrow has been set apart as "church day" at the style show. Invitations have been extended to all pastors and their congregations in this section. One of the central motives of the show has been to emphasize the necessity of correct home surroundings, to establish a real cultural atmosphere in the home. Dealers participating in the movement are seeking to show the way to better homes through their displays of new and atractive home furnishings. Ensembles, the newest idea in furniture arrangement, are featured in every store. In these, complete groupings of furnishings, just as they would appear in the home, are shown. This gives every visitor an opportunity to visualize them in her own home.

This famous old pastime is one of the few fascinating games for two players, yet under the modern rules many more may enjoy it and share in the spoils of victory. “Doubling” has put new strategy and more thrills into it than ever before.

HOW TO PLAY

This is the eighth article in a series on "Todar’s Backgammon." which has been written for The Times and NEA Service by Elizabeth Clark Boyden. She is the author of “The New Backgammon" and co-author of “Contract Bridge for 1930” and Contract Bridge for 1931." BY ELIZABETH C’. BOYDEN Written for NEA Service OUITE frequently the initial throw is poor. It is very necessary to know how best to combat these disadvantageous throws. Often the sensible play is to take considerable risk in leaving blots, hoping on the next throw to make use of this blot if it is not hit by the opponent. For example, one and two forces the player to leave a blot. The play may be made in two ways. One may be moved to point 12 in the opponent’s outer table, or to point 10 in the player’s outer table. This leaves just one blot, which only can be hit with a double throw. Good players frequently run a second risk with this throw and play the one from point 6 to point 5 in the player's inner table and the two from point 12 in the opponent’s outer table to point 11 in the player's outer table. If the blot on point 5 is not hit it can be covered on the next play with a throw of a six, a three or a one. Thus blocking this very valua-

ble point justifies the risk that was taken on leaving the blot. a tt it THE throws of one and i ur and one and five are made in exactly the same way by moving one man from point 6 and the other man from point 12. This idea of leaving a blot on point 5 sometimes is carried to such an extent that a player will make this move even when he could have played the throw without leaving any blot. This is the case with one and four, which could be played by taking one man on point 12 in the opponent’s outer table to point 8 in the player’s outer table. A difficult situation arises when a player must choose whether to bring one of his two men from the opponent’s inner table or move a man from the opponent’s outer table. Asa general policy, it is wiser to leave the two men on point 1 until they can be brought out with doublets or a throw of five and six. The plays of three and six, and four and six are exceptions to this as moving one of these two men seems to be.the least of the evils. I Some players move a man from

point 1 with a play of four and five. A better play for this move is probably to move two men from point 12 in the opponent’s outer table, one for the four and the other for the five. This leaves one blot which can only be hit by a double throw. tt tt tt TWO throws which usually are made by deliberately leaving two blots are two and three and three and four. . , These two plays are made by moving two men from point 12 in the opponent’s outer table. The position is excellent to make a point on the next throw and neither of the men can be taken up with a single throw. The two and three could be played by moving one man from point 12 in, the opponent’s outer table to safety on point 8 in the player's outer table, but this leaves no improved positions for the next throw. Two and five is played with two men from point 12 for the same reason. The play of three and four could also be played safely by playing a man from point 12 in two moves to point 6 in the player’s inner table, but it has the same objections as the preceding throw. ft tt St IN each of these throws one of the two men in the opponent’s ! inner table could have been moved for one number, but this is almost ; never done, although a one and : four occasionally is played by movi ing one man from point 1 to point

2 in the opponent’s inner table, and the other man from point 12 in the opponent’s outer table to-point 9 i in the player's outer table. Nearly all moves recommended in these articles are equally good for the- first few moves of the game, bearing in mind that blots are most dangerous to leave when exposed to several of the opponent’s men. Two and six. for instance, can played by moving a man from point 1 in the opponent's inner table for two moves to' point 9 in the opponent's outer table. This would be more dangerous if the opponent previously had made a similar move so that he has men on two points in the player’s outer table.

IT is much wiser to play in this case a man from point 12 in the opponent’s outer table for both moves to point 5 in the player’s inner table. Some players always make this move in any case, again reasoning i on the advantage of covering the blot on point 5 on the next play if it is not hit. In choosing whether to leave a blot on point 5 or the bar point, this blot is safer on point 5, as there are fewer throws which will permit the opponent to hit the blot.

I.—A uniformed policeman was lodged in jail tonight after failing to explain how he and two civilians happened to be breaking into a poolx;oom when surprised by two other officers. Charles Osterman, 37, the policeman, was captured by two fellowofficers after he had been fired at five times. The two civlians escaped.
