Contract Bridge
BY W. E. M KENMY American Bridge Learie ISN'T it only natural that the queens should predominate in the national mixed team-of-four championship*? In this event a team must consist of two mixed pairs. At Asbury Park recently this event set an attendance record for national team-of-four championship events. The kings and queens of bridge ! competed for this national championship title and the following interesting hand came up during the contest. The first four tricks were won by the declarer with four j queens. George Unger, former national contract team-of-four champion, was sitting in the South and his partner was Mrs. R. B. Fuller, who with her partner. Mrs. Courtland Smith, won the national woman's pair title at Asburk Park. Unger passed, West passed, and Mrs. Fuller in the North bid one spade East doubled and South bid one no trump. North went to two : no trump and South bid three no j trump. a a a WEST’S opening lead was the j jack cf hearts and dummy's queen held the trick. Unger re-, turned the six of diamonds from dummy and played the queen from his own hand. West allowed it to i hold the trick. The next play was the deuce of spades, the queen was played from dummy and the third queen had won the trick. This gave Unger the thought that now his club finesse should be good, so he played the deuce of clubs from
dummy, finessing the queen—and * K-Q-10-8 VA-K-Q ♦ 10-7-6 *lO-8-2 *3 —-r'rn AA-J-9-VJ-10- NODTH 5.5.4 9-8-7 £ V 4-2 ♦ A-9-8- Ui a) ♦J 5-4 5 H * K-J-9-*6-3 Dealer 7 SOUTH *7-2 V 6-5-3 ♦ K-Q-3-2 * A-Q-5-A #3
the first four tricks had all been won with queens. However, his contract still was not made. He led a small diamond and w'on in dummy with the j ten. East showed out, discarding a j spade. Unger then cashed his ace j and king of hearts —East showed out of hearts, discarding another spade. This gave Unger a perfect count j on the East hand, which now had left nothing but three clubs and i three spades, therefore, a small club I was played from dummy and won j in the declarer's hand with the ace. I East then was thrown in the lead with a club, and cashed the good • king of clubs. East held the ace. jack and nine j of spades and dummy held the king, ten and eight. All that Unger j needed to make his contract was one trick. East played a small spade, which j dummy won with the king, and while East won the last two spade j tricks with the ace and jack, Un- j ger had made his contract of three no trump.

A couple of months after the master's regiment had sailed. Prince disappeared. His mistress searched everywhere without success. Then, one day. two weeks later, the dog turned up in France, found the regiment he was looking for, and rejoined his master. How he got there, no one knows to this day. That he did make the trip all by himself—from London to a front-line trench—was undisputablv established by an official inves- ; tigation. He “served” with his master throughout the war. slew a prodigious number of rats, and died peacei fully in his kennel at home after j the armistice. This is just one of the stories from “Animal War Heroes.” by Peter Shaw Baker; and. as you can : judge by the sample, it is an unusual and appealing sort of book. It tells of the many mascots the troops had during the war; of Rags, the mmongrel who adopted a Lancashire regiment, went to Gallipoli, landed at V beach with the troops and survived until peace-time; of Peggy, bulldog mascot of the battleship Iron Duke, for whom a destroyer once made a special trip; of Jimmy, the donkey who was born in a front-line trench and served with a Scottish regiment throughout the war—and of a lot more whose stories I would gladly repeat if space were available. It also tells of the animals which were part of the war machine—carrier pigeons, artillery horses, and so on; and its stories, if you like animals. are exceedingly interesting. The book is published by A. & C. Black.

IMMORTALITY BELIEF VOICED BY DR. FROST Life Spent in Research Has Inclined Astronomer to Faith in God. BY DAVID DIETZ Scripps-Howard Science Editor A life spent in the study of astronomy inclines Dr. Edwin B. Frost to a belief in God and im-! mortality. Dr. Frost, one of the nation's most famous astronomers and the director of the great Yerkes observatory, says that he sees no scientific inconsistency in the conception of a dominant spiritual p>ower behind the universe, touching and modifying the human spirit. “If the universe and its energy are immortal, should not spirit also be as enduring?” asked Dr. Frost. He adds: “Spirit is by definition without the limitation of mass, space, or | time and thus not subject to space perception. Supernatural phenomena are not involved; nature itself is marvelous enough. Gives Him Serenity “To me, this view leads to a certain serenity of thought, somewhat like that which Einstein lately has described in cosmic religious sense. “There has been an enormous expansion of the conception of the universe because of ooservational research in the last three decades. Most astronomers now' regard the cosmos as more than a million times greater in extent than they thought it to be in 1900. “The prevailing * view of the astronomers is that changes in the universe are perfectly orderly and the same cause may be expected to produce the same effect when the conditions are identical,” the Chicago scientist said. Dr. Frost dissents from the view' that the formation of such planets as our own earth must be a very rare phenomenon in the universe. “Accidental” View Scouted “Some of the brilliant English j mathematicians w'ho now' are writing extensively of the new' knowledge of astronomy and of physics express the opinion that the earth is an accident and that a star surrounded by planets, as is our sun, rarely occurs in nature,” he continued. “I dissent decidedly from this view' and present the alternative that the explosion of the stars, frequently observed, show's how matter is thrown out from the stars of the novae type, and might form j planets of such an exploding star. “This view is in contrast to that of the accidental, but never observed. close approach of two stars in their wanderings through space. “Thus we must consider the evolution of a star by sudden and intermittent actions, or even by catalslysms. to be orderly procedures of nature. Beginning Hard to Trace “When we consider the different units of the cosmos, it is difficult to | say which is the end-product and which the beginning. It is again the old unsolved problem of the cycle of the hen and the egg. '“But there are suggestive implications in the possibility of cycles in the progress of the universe with developments from the simple tow'ard the complex in one phase and in the reverse direction, from the complex toward the simple, in the other phase.” Other planets in the universe must be essentially like our earth and their inhabitants essentially like ourselves, in the opinion of Dr. Frost. “Observations indicate that the earth is a good sample of the w'hole i cosmos in respect to its chemistry,” he says. “The same elements are in the stars as w'e find in our planet. Little Difference Seen “That leads to the inference that i sentient beings, if any exist on the ! possible planets around other stars, : can not. vary enormously as to their chemistry and physics from the occupants of the, earth. “The new r views of mathematical physicists as to the tremendous evoj lution of radiant energy, in the unimaginably hot interiors of the stars by the consumption of matter, gives a vastly longer expectation of life I for our sun and the stars than w’as formerly supposed possible. “We now measure life in terms of I millions of millions of years, instead of a few paltry millions. “But this continued wastage of the stars as they send out light and heat, supposedly in all directions, does not satisfy the philosophy of those who regard the universe as a ! going concern. “There has been a great desire to ! find somewhere the reverse process by which radiation can be converted into matter and so complete the ■ cycle “The cosmic rays which have been studied by Dr. Herbert A. Millikan ; and others have been thought to give some evidence that this actually may occur.” Probe Reveals Dog Is Thief By United Press WARSAW.

RAIN PUTS CADET ARMY TO ROUT
Maneuvers Featured by Worst Downpour in 40 Years

This is the fourth in a series of articles by a correspondent who accompanied West Point cadets in the field recently during maneuvers designed to stress field training for future army officers. BY WILLIAM D. O'BRIEN Times Special Writer W'EST POINT, Sept. s.—Six inches of water rose in pup tents lined in a field of an Arden farm as the heaviest rain fell in more than forty years. Word was sent out to some 600 sodden West Point cadets, in camp after the third stormy day of war maneuvers, that they might abandon the mud and water to find asylum under roof. Fleeing the rain-soaked tents, the cadets streamed into a huge barn and stretched in tight-pressed rows in the stalls, w'hile horses, bewildered by the strange night invasion, stamped about them. When the stalls could accommodate no more, the cadets, with packs, rifles and machine guns stowed, found sleeping places in odd corners. Hay piles made soft, dry beds; the corn crib and small outhouses were packed early with resting men. Some even slept in wagon beds. Outside blustered the storm with increasing violence, through the night, and it seemed certain that in years to come at mess in many an army post some officer would be reminded of a story whenever the weather changed. He would, perhaps, become a bit garrulous about the West Point hike of 1933. Mayhap, before the grumbles about discomforts in some bad weather in the field, he would be moved to cry: “Think this is bad. do you? You should have been on that 1933 hike when I was a cadet. Go ahead!” a a a BEFORE meeting the genuine enemy in the storm the cadets engaged in battle against a sham enemy. Cadets in one rifle company and one machine gun platoon comprised the enemy Red force. The defending Blue force was made up of the first battalion, with reinforcements of artillery and howitzer, supposed to have been part of a mythical brigade encamped across the Hudson. All the cadets camped in the rain two nights and a day in a field topping the pass to Bull mountain, east of Highland Mills, which had been held in force by the defenders. They were in continuous communication with brigade headquarters at West Point and with the artillery hung on the crest of Bull mountain. The field radio, with a range of fifteen miles, was set up in two minutes and operated by a hand generator, first protected only by ponchos and shelter halves, later by a sizeable tent. Cadet commanding officers in the Blue force reconnoitered Me the second day, plotted their advance against the enemy, and the camp was broken early next day. Supply wagons were mired deep in the mud stirred by countless feet. Broad shoulders shoved them to the road. When the mud bested cadet muscles, tractors slid into the field and hauled out the trucks. The cadets in the role of enemy left the camp first and traveled along the concrete highway of Route 17. paralleling the Erie railroad. The cadet Blue forces advanced along a dirt road. Grassy fields and small, thicketed hills from Central Valley to Arden lay between. a a a ALL battle commands were given by cadet officers. Tactical officers—regular army officers—identified as umpires by white bands around their hats,

trotted with mounted orderlies beside each unit. They listened to cadet orders and prepared later to confirm good judgment or review mistakes. Blanks in machine guns spluttered, puffing white smoke, sweeping across the fields to the [ concrete highway held by the enemy. A cadet peered into the artillery range and tugged. The four French 75s were placed in position, screened by trees, along an earthen bulge, while the horses w r ere taken to the rear. At the range finder a cadet 1 called to the crew of the first gun in line: “Plateau 14; drum 12.” i A man knelt beside the range | finder with phones clamped to his ears, while the other continued: “Site zero; range 3,400.” ; Crew's of the 75s got ready for action and simulated firing. Ahead, Blue infantrymen clambered off the dirt road and moved up to slope amid the trees. Opposite the woods a wire-spaced line of men, bending low, advanced. Howitzers wheeled into poistion. The Red forces were so well maneuvered that tactical officers decided the enemy w'as annihilated. a a a CADETS of the Red force, marked as enemies by white arm bands, joined the ranks of the Blue and the “war” ended. The flagging task of building a new camp hobbled by rain and mud then was resumed, with the nation's future army officers planning and executing alike. Water for scouring mess kits started bubbling over w'ood fires. Resourceful youths utilized the flames that struggled against the rain to dry out shoes wet for days, j On a farm owner's assenting j nod. others tore out armfuls of hay to spread in pup tents, noting j the farmers’ information that it j w'as drier at the bottom of the stack. The hospital tent w'as raised; sleeping tents for the tactical officers went up. Many cadets got out of their damp uniforms and roamed the camp in bathing suits after sup- ! per eaten in the rain. The scanty fly over the tactical officers’ mess table failed to keep out the deluge sweeping down the valley. The officers' creamed potatoes were awash with rain water, the frankfurters practically afloat; the rolls w r ere pulpy and the sttw'ed cherries bobbed. Tw'o hundred horses stood in | the picket line, near the pup tents, almost motionless in the rain. The enlisted veterinarian, i who called them his “animals,” was glad that the rain was warm, with little threat of bronchitis for the horses. a a a ALMOST worst of all, the “boodler” fled. He was a peddler who had been permitted to follow' the battalion, set up his tent in camp, and dispense candy,
cigarets. and ice cream for “boodler” checks, as the cadets were not allowed to carry money. He did a good business, but w'as rained out. Night at last, with the “w'ar” ended and the sodden warriors asleep in a dry barn. The only sounds w’ere the beat

OFFERS SPECIAL FARES B. & O. Plan Provides Cheap Tickets for Students Going Away. Announcement of special, longextension round-trip fares for students attending school away from home, was made today by George W. Squinnins, general passenger agent of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad. The plan embraces the purchase of a round-trip ticket at the home station for use on the opening of school and for returning either during Christmas or spring vacations. If the first ticket is used for returning during the Christmas holidays, a second round-trip ticket at the reduced fare may be purchased at the home station for the trip back to school. The Romans gave the gladiolus its name—meaning little sword—because the long leaves reminded them of weapons.

Sept. s.—Suit for collection of $3,049 back pay for services extending over a ten-year period are sought in circuit court here by Francis Moore, 70, from Emmett Chard, Steuben county commissioner. Moore claims the money is for 3,049 days’ work at the rate of $1 a day, and that the work was done | on a farm owned by Chard between ; 1917 and 1927. After the work was ! done, .Moore charges, Chard paid him only SSOO. Since that time he has received only $lB and a horse ! valued at S4O for the services, he alleges.
