GAMBLING CZAR GOULD DEPOSED BY DEPRESSION Riviera Properties to Be Leased to Syndicate at Low Rents. By Vnited Press PARIS, Nov. 23.—The pinch of hard times along the French Riviera has turned Fran’- Jay Gould from t'he world's foremost gambling czar into a mere landlord to a gambling syndicate, it was learned today. The syndicate, made up of six men, has been formed to take over Gould s vast casino and hotel activities, representing an estimated investment of more than $10,000,000. Gould’s great Palais De La Meditenane, at Nice, held to be the most lavishly designed gaming casino in the world, and his new gambling palace at Juan-Les-Pins are included in the properties to be taken over by the syndicate. Voluntarily Exiled Self The $5,000,000 Palais De La Mediterrrane has not been opened yet this year, though, heretofore, the opening always has been early in November. Other properties included in the deal are the Hotel Majestic at Nice and the luxurious Provencal hotel at Juan-Les-Pins, between Cannes and Nice. • Gould, son of the late Jay Gould, voluntarily exiled himself from the United States in 1913, and established his name on the Riviera—especially that stretch along the Mediterranean known as the Cote D’AzurT-i-prior to the coming of world-wide depression in 1929. He built his success on the boom days, when pleasure-seekers, capable of paying fancy prices, ranged up and down the Riviera bv thousands. One Per Cent on Investment His various ventures have now turned into so many white elephants even though the Palais De La Mediterrane led all other French casinos in table profits last year, gaining a total of more than 21,000,000 frahes. The new syndicate will include Jean Medecin, mayor of Nice, and Ernest Boudoin, Gould’s casino manager. The syndicate will rent the various casinos and hotels at an annual price of 2,000,000 francs, beginning Dec. 11. This rental rate represents really less than 1 per cent on Gould’s investment on the Riviera. SENATOR JONES’ DEATH HURTS WELFARE BILL Advocates of Maternity and Infancy Measure Without Leader. By Brripps-Howard Newspaper Alliance WASHINGTON, Nov. 28—Death of Senator Wesley Jones of Washington has upset plans of social workers to carry forward their fight for the Jones maternity and infancy aid bill, killed in the closing days of last session.

The League of Women Voters’ directors, who have advocated the measure for years, will meet here Nov. 30 to consider what action to take. They may postpone reintroduction of the “M. and I.” bill until the special or next regular session. TWO SLAIN IN FIGHT OVER GROCERY BILL Store Owner, Mortally Wounded, Draws Gun and Kills Foe.

Health Chief Warns of ‘Flu Type’ Colds Wave
'Keep Going Cure’ Method Dangerous to Victims, Says Dr. Morgan. “If you have a cold, don’t try to wear it out.” This warning was sounded today by Dr. Herman G. Morgan, secretary of the city health board, with the announcement that the city now is entering the second week of a wave of influenza-type colds. “A week ago we noted the first indications of a wave of influenzatype colds, which can not be worn off by the customary ‘keep going’ method,” Morgan said. “A high percentage of these colds are accompanied by respiratory infections, which easily can develop into bronchitis, pneumonia and sinus infections.” The prevalent infections are of more marked severity than the "common cold,” Morgan said. Symptoms are nasal irritation, accompanied by severe headaches, watery eyes and temperature. The onset of the cold is more sudden than the ordinary cold which gi es warning by the feeling that one is “taking cold,” Morgan said. "The attack also is marked by general muscular soreness and radiating pains in the leg muscles,” Morgan said. “The symptoms easily are distinguishable as more severe than the usual cold. “Persons afficted by this type of cold should accept it as being more difficult to overcome than ‘just a cold,’ Morgan said. “Rest in bed at the onset, with adequate medical attention, will prevent complications.” U. S. COAL OUTPUT SHOWS LARGE GAINS State Production Also on Increase, Bureau of Mines Reports.

CONTRACT BRIDGE BY W. E. M’KENNEY Secretary American Bridge League AN interesting slam hand which occurred in the New York state individual championship is shown today. This hand was played by Philip L. Coffin Jr., assistant attorney general of New Jersey, run-ner-up in this event. East and West were vulnerable, while North and South were not. After passes by South and West North opened the bidding with one heart. This is a weak bid, but the most advanced players now are opening

The Bidding hands of very moderate strength in third position to protect a partner who may have passed considerable strength. East doubled, South passed, and West responded with one spade. Os course North would have suffered a heavy penalty had the double been passed, but he was not vulnerable and the ultimate result was much more profitable for East and West. East bid two clubs, but West now responded with four clubs. This is a highly constructive bid from which East could draw a wealth of inferences. West apparently had sufficient strength to have bid two spades over the double and his reason for not doing so must have been a spade suit, of only four cards. The strength shown by the jump in clubs could consist only of the ace and king of spades or the ace and a queen of spades plus the king of diamonds. Furthermore. West must be short in hearts, because nearly all the hearts are accounted for by previous bidding and East’s own holding. Having thus formed a complete picture of partner’s hand, East was justified fully in bidding six clubs, which became the final contract. The Play South’s lead is immaterial, but he elected to open a trump rather than to lead through his partner’s obviously weak heart suit. East won with the ace and dropped the remaining trumps by leading the king. His next lead was the nine of spades to dummy's king, and he followed with the ace of spades, on which his 'losing diamond was discarded. He now led dummy’s singleton heart and finessed the queen. A novice often will refuse to finesse a singleton, but Coffin realized that if he went up with the ace, he still must concede one heart trick. The king of hearts practically is marked with North by his opening bid and a successful finesse will give an extra trick, which, is duplicate play, is very valuable. When the queen held, he led the ace of hearts, followed by a small one, which he ruffed in dummy, returning to his own hand with the ace of diamonds. He ruffed another heart and when North’s king dropped, declarer’s remaining heart was established for the thirteenth trick. This hand illustrates how good tournament players manipulate the play to realize every possible trick, yet they do so in such a way as to run as little risk as possible. In this case Coffin assured himself that the finesse would in no way jeopardize his small slam contract, and that while he might gain nothing by a play, it could not result in a loss.

SIOO ‘Boot ’ Toe Hold Demonstrated at Drinking Party; Victim Loses SIOO.
ANYBODY who knows wrestling will tell you that a toe hold can’t be demonstrated unless the intended victim takes off a shoe. So Alva Wild, who says he is a broker from Frankfort, Ind., took off a shoe in a restaurant at 3320 Madison avenue Sunday night. He had five S2O bills in the shoe. He hasn’t got them now. Wild said a man giving the name of Robert Beckett, 35, of Zanesville, 0., was the only person he had told that there was money in the shoe. Beckett was arrested on a vagrancy charge. According to Wild, a guest at a hotel, he met Beckett in the basement of another hotel, and Beckett proposed they go on a drinking party. Beckett picked up three other men in a poolroom and the five went to the Madison avenue restaurant operated by Lonnie Lyster and Art Dampier. One of the party, who announced he was a wrestler, demonstrated the toe hold, and left with the money and two companions. Beckett, who told police he was not acquainted with the three men from the poolroom, returned to the hotel with Wild and was present when police arrived to investigate Wild’s report of a robbery.

day the janitor notified us he had received instructions from the city hall not to let us have them. Ernie Frick, board of works secretary, today denied the “hunger marchers” were refused chairs, and asserted the lack of them at the hall was due to negligence of the committee on arrangements. Frick said that when permission to use the hall was granted and heat and light promised, the committee was told it was to make arrangements in advance with the hall custodian for chairs to be placed. This stipulation was agreed to by the committee, according to Frick. Several speakers denounced capitalism and urged support of the march.
