U. S. AGENTS DENY ROCKNE BOMBTHEORY Paper Charges Plane Was Wrecked by Gang Plotters. By T'nitr<l Prrs* SOUTH BEND, Ind., Jan. 7.—A startling explanation of the airplane disaster in which Knute Rockne met death—that a bomb intended for a witness in the famous Lingle case caused the fatal crash renewed speculation today in the Notre Dame football coach's death. The explanation was contained in a copyrighted article in the NewsTimes which said it learned from “unimpeachable sources” that government operatives discovered evidence of such a blast. The story was met by denials of department of commerce aviation officials, department of justice executives and officials of Notre Dame university. Bomb Intended for Priest The News-Times said the bomb apparently was intended for the Rev. Father John Reynolds, C. S. C„ a witness whose testimony aided in the conviction of Leo Brothers for slaying Alfred <Jake* Lingle, Chicago Tribune reporter. Reynolds, said the News-Times, had booked passage on the plane in which Roikne and seven others died March 31, 1931. At the last moment, said the paper, he changed his plans and went west by rail. He had testified four days before in the Brothers trial. Call Story Ridiculous The Rev. Father Charles L. O. O'Donnell, president of Notre Dame, characterized the story as “ridiculous.” The Rev. Father M. A. Mulcaire, university vice president, said he had not been questioned by any government operative, and believed no other university priest has been questioned. Department of commerce officials at Kansas City who investigated the crash which occurred near Wichita, Kan., said they had found no evidence to indicate such a bomb plot. At Washington, D. C., department of justice operatives said they were making no inquiry. The News-Times article predicted denials by all concerned.
Roof Will Present Big Show The “giant of jazz” (Morrey Brennan* and his orchestra will close a five weeks’ engagement on the Indiana roof Sunday evening. Their last program will contain a review of the tunes which they have made popular during their stay here. Brennan and his unit are to be replaced by Bernie Young and his Creoles, a colored orchestra which has been featured on the roof at intervals during the past three years. Appearing with the Creole orchestra will be a floor show known as the “Harlem Hot Shots,” in which Billie and Dcllie, a dance team which won hearty applause at the roof’s New Year's eve frolic, are to be featured. Their stay on the roof will be limited. The floor show is in keeping with the roof's new policy, which also dictates dancing each Saturday, Sunday, Wednesday and Friday evenings. Another feature of the new policy are several hundred tables which are available on the roof balcony for reservation each night that the ballroom operates. Andre and Saranoff, dance exponents, return to the roof Monday night at 8:30 to resume dance instruction classes which were interrupted there two weeks ago because of the holidays. Their classes will again cover the fundamental principles of the w’altz and fox trot. Tire roof continues its weekly Wednesday waltz policy—every other dance is a waltz on that night.

COMTMCT BRIDGE BY W. E. M KINNEY Secretary American Bridge League THE most import-ant thing to learn when playing the one over one system of contract bidding is the difference between a constructive bid and a sign-off bid, due to the fact that third and fourth hand may open much weaker than first or second in this system, which may seem confusing to those who have played a system in which just the opposite is true. One thing that must be remembered is the fact that partner opens third or fourth hand does not necessarily mean that he is not permitted to hold more than a minimum. Take for example the following hand, played in a duplicate championship match:
A 8-2 VQ-5 ♦ K-J-8-4-3 *lO-6-3-2 *5 NORTH * A _K_Q_ VK-10- h- m 6-4 8-6-2 % J VA-7 ♦ A-7-5 5 H ♦Q-10-6 AK-J-8- Denier AA-9-5 4 I SOUTH A J-10-9-7-3 V J-9-4-3 ♦ 9-2
The Bidding South, the dealer, must pass. West does not have sufficient strength to open the bidding second hand and passes. While North is third hand and might desire to put in a psychic diamond bid, I don't believe it advisable with this type of holding, as there is no combination of cards that partner could hold to w’hich this hand can be of any assistance. Both majors are wide open and in case partner gets in the lead against an opponent's contract, you certainly don’t want diamonds led through your king, jack. Therefore, it is a good third-hand pass. East is fourth hand and has quite a powerhouse. His original bid should be one spado, which South would pass. West overcalls with two hearts and North passes. East has a very fine hand—he has made a fourth-hand opening bid. His next bid must convey to partner the information regarding this strength. To bid tw’o spades would be considered a sign-off by partner. A bid of three no trump might stop the bidding at the w’rong spot. The best bid is a jump shift bid in spades—namely, a declaration of three spades. This is a bid of one more than is necessary and informs partner that the bidding must continue until a game is reached. South would pass and now’ West must not rebid his weak heart suit, but, as his heart suit has a tcnace position, and also the club suit, he safely can go to three no trump, even though he holds a singleton spade. It generally docs not pay to bid three no trump when holding a singleton in partner’s suit unless you have side compensating strength W’hich West has. As long as West has elected to bid only three no trump, after the jump shift forcing bid. East should not become too optimistic on the hand and attempt to bid any more, but should be content to play the hand at three no trump. The Play With a diamond opening, West will go up with the ten spot and will make five no trump. At one table North opened a club w’hich gave C. E. Gunnn of Cleveland, who was sitting in the West, four club (ricks and he was able to develop a squeeze on the South hand, thereby making six no trump. (Coovrieht. 1933. bv NEA Service. Inc.)
