AMIS TRUST SUIT DROPPED Heirs Halt Control Battle Over $2,000,000 Bequest. Battle for control of a $2,000,000 trust, bequeathed to two granddaughters by J. D. Adams, former wealthy Indianapolis manufacturer, has ended in probate court without a hearing, Judge Smiley N. Chambers has announced. A suit to oust trustees of the trust was dismissed by Mrs. Anna Louise Jose, 3002 East Fall Creek parkway, plaintiff. Mrs. Jose is the wife of Oscar Jose, Indianapolis attorney. The trust represents a one-third interest in the J. D. Adams Manufacturing Company. Mrs. Jose sought to have the estate divided equally between her and an unmarried sister, Miss Laura Margaret Henry, 22. The suit alleged both are past 21, the age provided for distribution of the trust. A clause in Mr. Adams’ will providing “the trust could be continued if trustees thought best” was to have been attacked by the suit. The suit also sought to discharge as guardian of the daughters, their father, Silas Edward Henry, with whom Laura lives. It was charged trustees had violated terms of the trust by converting assets of the manufacturing company property into bonds. Other court action may be taken, it was reported.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

NEW ROAD 31 COMPLETION IS MADEJOSSIBLE Relocation Project May Be Finished This Year; Bill Is Signed. Relocation of U. S. Road 31. which now begins at the northern limits of Indianapolis and winds up in a dead end at Carmel, likely will be completed this summer due to a new law signed by Governor Paul V. McNutt. The law provides that, in such relocations, the state can bear the entire expense of construction of grade separations. A grade separation on the Monon railroad, north of Carmel, has kept the relocation project from completion, although the pavement long has been laid to that point. As soon as state highway commissioners were notified that the bill passed by the legislature had become law, they drew agreements for the grade separation which were being forwarded today to the Monon officials. Similar action was taken with relocation of State Road 6, where completion has been held up, due to a Baltimore & Ohio grade separation. Where grade separations are made on the old location, the state pays 80 per cent and the railroad 20 per cent, Formerly all grade separation projects were on a 50-50 basis, the state and railroad sharing the cost.

ABANDONED GAS WELL USED BY BOOTLEGGERS Still Operators Pipe Fuel to Home and Liquor Plant. Bp United Press HAVRE, Mont., March 11.—If you dril for oil or gas, and strike a dry well—be careful that bootleggers don’t tap the gas supply available from the hole after it is abandoned ! Federal officers recently discovered a fifty-gallon still in the Little Rocky mountains, near Havre, operated with gas piped from a near-by abandoned oil well. The gas had been piped some 150 yards, and was used not only to run the still, but to heat the living quarters of the alleged owners of the plant.

CONVICTED BANDIT GIVEN TEN YEARS

Pass Sentence for Alleged Robbery of Truck Driver.

Convicted on a robbery charge in criminal court Friday, Kenneth Lewis, 25, of 847 Church street, W’as sentenced to the state reformatory for ten years. Lewis was tried on a charge of robbing Walter Edwards, truck driver for L. S. Ayres & Cos., of $19.50. “Don’t bother about me,” Lewis told his mother. It is the second time in three years that misfortune has come into the Lewis home. Kenneth’s brother, George Lewis, was found fatally wounded with a bullet in his head, in front of the city hospital, April 23, 1929. He was found after hospital officials received an anonymous call that “a man has been injured.” Subsequent investigation of the shooting by police revealed George Lewis had been shot during a hijacking attempt south of Rockville. Friends had brought his body to the hospital.

Contract Bridge

BY W. E. M’KENNEY Secretary American Bridge League npHE increased grand slam premium which went into effect with the new laws has had a profound effect on the bidding of grand slams, not only from a mathematical, but also from a psychological standpoint. Formerly, players were extremely cautious about grand slam bids, and if that declaration finally was reached the hand usually was so obvious that no play was necessary. With the increased premium, players are searching their hands more carefully for grand slam possibilities, and there is a tendency to bid doubtful slams, in the hope that they can be made by careful play or favorable distribution, A grand slam is a good gamble if it has an even chance of success. If the declarer has confidence in his ability to get every possible trick out of the cards, he may bid grand slams rather freely. The Bidding Today’s hand was played in a New York Club which is noted for its high stakes. Both sides were vulnerable and South opened the bidding with one club. West passed and North responded with one heart—a one over one force. South’s next bid was three hearts, which was a game-demand force and guaranteed at least four hearts in the hand plus some extra high card strength beyond that required for the original bid. North bid four clubs and South’s next bid was four no trump—a very illuminating bid, which showed

clearly that South did not wish to sign off, which he easily could have done by bidding four hearts or five clubs. For slam bidding purposes, it is assumed that an original bid shows control of two suits, and South would not have dared to invite a slam unless he held control of a third; therefore, North now could count his partner for four hearts, headed by the ace; four or five clubs, headed by the ace, and king; and the ace of spades. This assured that there would be no losing tricks in spades, hearts, or clubs, and the only risk in bidding a grand slam would be the possibility of losing a diamond trick. North gambled that South’s diamonds either would be strong enough or short enough to avoid that loss and bid seven hearts. It is noteworthy that he bid the grand slam in his four-card suit rather than in his five-card suit, always remembering the possibility of using his fifth club for a discard. The Play East quite properly opened the king of spades which declarer won in dummy with the ace and returned a small spade to be ruffed with the five of hearts. He put dummy in the lead with a club and ruffled the last spade with the ten of hearts. He now led the king and queen of hearts, overtaking the queen with the ace and drawing West’s last trump with the jack of hearts. Four more rounds of clubs now enabled dummy to discard the six of diamonds, so declarer was able to win the last trick by ruffing the ten of diamonds in dummy. It can not be denied that North and South did some rather bold bidding on this hand, and under the old scoring it would have been considered totally unsound. However, the extra premium made the gamble worthwhile and North and South were rewarded with a score of 2,960 points. It is interesting to note that the grand slam could not be made in clubs.
