JUST two days elapsed between the
closing: of the fall term and the
opening of the spring: terra at Wash
ington. About 70 left the school in
the graduating: class Friday and more
than 200 new students entered Mon
day. This is an exceptionally large
number for a mid-term class. Of these
freshmen 120 were girls and 90 were
boys. The enrollment Wednesday was
1240. For the first two days 15 and
oO-minute periods were held, thus en
abling: the students to arrange their
programme and classes and get their
books. Meanwhile the freshmen met
in the assembly hall where informa-1
tion regarding; the various courses off
etudy was given. Wednesday they
were assigned to registration rooms
and became a part of the school.
A very large per cent of the graduating-
class have shown their in

THE final entertainment for
January, '20, class was in
form of a leap year dance, given by
the sixth and seventh termers. Ev
eryone had been prepared for this
kind of a dance by the Civic League
matinee dance, so the girls were not
as bashful as might have been ex
pected. Mr.- Fletcher and Mr. "Bay
represented the faculty, while among
the other chaperones were Mesdame?

ran, Hansen. Griswold, Weimer, Har
rington, O'Connor. Brooks, Keeney,
James, Smith, Hayes,' Dewley, Day.
Brown and Smith, Arline Shaw, Mr.
Scales and Mr. Griswold. Punch and
wafers were served between dances.
The first picnic of the season, in
all probability, was the one ventured
upon by the committee on decoration
at graduation time. Friday morning
six seventh termers visited the Linn
ton side of the river for decorations.
It was reported, however, that along
with the decorations they obtained a
good time and colds, stopped a run
away team, and had a delightful
weenie" roast.
Monday morning the student body
as a whole filed into the auditorium
and waited the assembly reported as
due. After a wait of perhaps 15. min
utes, Mr. Fletcher appeared and an
nounced that only the freshmen had
been requested to report to the
auditorium. -
Two members of the pedagogy
class, Anna Toole and Gladys Coon,
completed their course in January.
Miss Coon is not old enough for cer
tification, so she must wait until next
year to join the teaching ranks; but
Miss Toole left immediately after
graduation for Culver, Or., where she
will teach for the remainder of the
term. The present pedagogy class
begins its practice teaching class next
week.
The advanced Spanish class will
supplement its usual book work with

On January 27 Commerce played its
second league game in basketball
with the Franklin squad as opponents.
The game had fewer fouls than the
previous game. In the first half the
"jinx" -seemed to follow Grider all
over the floor, but in the second half
"Mix" managed to outslip the "jinx"
and made several field baskets. At
the close ofthe first half the score
was: Franklin 22, Commerce 2. The
second half brought improvement
among the Commerce players, for
Franklin secured 11 points and Com
merce S. Altimus and Gurian kept
their men under cover to good ad
vantage. Commerce will play its next
game with Jefferson.

The June '20 class has assumed full
charge of the school affairs and is
doing all it can to create new school
spirit for this term. The class has
been very successful so far in all its
undertakings and under the watchful
eye of Mrs. Wade, faculty adviser,
have planned for a number of inter
esting programmes.
The opening of the new term brought
about 150 new students, thus making.
a total of approximately 800 students
in the school. All classes are over
crowded. The advanced Spanish class
is reciting with the third termers;
the typing classes are in need of ma
chines and the bookkeeping classes
are so crowded that a request for
bookkeeping desks was made to the
school board, but only half the num
ber asked for could be obtained. Com
merce boasts of two new teachers
Miss Newell of A-ngels Camp, CaL, and
Miss Wheeler of Boise, Idaho. Miss
Newell teaches English, while Miss
Wheeler is in charge of some of the
typewriting classes. The school will
also have a new librarian from the
Central library. The office training
classes have started their corporation
work and although It is overcrowded,
the school in general resembles a
busy office in the workaday world
rather than a public school.
Mr. Rude, who has been seriously
ill for some time, has returned and is

Instrument Tests Liquor.
Cincinnati Enquirer.
An instrument to register the
"kick" in liquid refreshments soon
will be furnished to revenue deputies
and agents in Ohio, according to
Chief Deputy Internal Revenue Col
lector Stephen W. McGrath.
It ia known as the ehillloscope and
to it is ascribed the power not only
to register the amount of alcohol In
a beverage, but to absorb enough of
the liquid to convince any jury that
evidence it gives as a "star witness"
is unassailable.
It is said that when the instrument
is dipped into a liquid it will give
forth a yellow light if the alcoholic
content is nil or under one-half of
1 per cent; a blue light if there Is as
much as 2.75 per cent, but if it come
in contact with the 100-proof kick

little slam, or
Declarer makes
total score of 140.
Trick 1 A leads his fourth best
spade to which trick B puts up jack
and declarer king (king rather than
queen in the hope to deceive as to
the location of queen). Declarer sees'
the cluh suit is the suit which offers
the greatest promise, and that the
better to capture the king the suit
must be led by dummy, likely more
than once. Moreover, as dummy.
holds the greater number of the suit
the lead eventually must be in his
hand or the suit will not be brought
in. This means that dummy must
hold re-entries. As his hand stands,
it has but the heart king. As. how
ever, there are eight hearts in the
two hands to the ace. king, queen,
jack, and dummy holds half this
number, it would seem that re-entry
could eventually be made of one of
his small hearts. The end in view is
decidedly worth the effort, so at
Trick 2 declarer leads the heart ace.
and follows at
Trick 3 with the queen, and at
Trick 4 with the jack. Having
carefully watched the fall, he sees
the remaining heart held by adver
sary must be played to this trick,
and that at" the next heart round
dummy's five spot will be a re-entry
curd. In order, however, to lead the
clubs from the dummy hand he must
absolutely overtake his jack led to
this trick with dummy's king. Were
he at this juncture to commit any one
of three errors he would defeat his
own object and the clubs could not be
brought in. One of these errors would
leave him rather than dummy with
command of the suit to the fourth
round. The other error would be the
continuance of the heart suit at this
time. The lead now being with dum
my, where it shonld be properly to
lead the clubs, he must absolutely j
lead the club, postponing the last
heart round until clubs are estab
lished. At
Trick 5, therefore, he leads dum
my's club queen, and second player
not coverings plays low from his
own hand.
Trick 6 Queen is followed with
small club, to which declarer plays 9
(9 being in sequence with dummy's
jack-10) and wins.
Trick 7 Knowing that the ad
verse king of clubs will have to
fall to this round, declarer now comes
out with ace. Having successfully
accomplished what he started out to
do, both as regarding hearts and
clubs, declarer at
Trick 8 leads his small heart, dum
my gets in with the 5, and at
Tricks 9 and. 10 makes his two re
maining clubs. Dummy at
Trick 11 leads a small spade (spade
rather than diamond, as the diamond
would establish two cards for the
adversary) and declarer plays 10,
V wins with ace. A at
Trick 12 leads a diamond, declarer
winning with ace. and at
Trick 13 making his queen of
spades.

re-entry to bring it in. While it
.vould be the play of the adversary
it to the second round (unless, as inj
this case, compelled to do so) this
is a contingency for which Z or any
player would be unable to provide
and he would at least have the sat
isfaction of knowing he had done
the best he could. This is the way
the hand should go:
means of anticipating. It is what
may easily happen to any no-trump

Denotes winner of trick.
Declarer wins seven tricks or one
above the book, jnst keeping his con
tract. His fatal mistake a mistake
which causes him a loss of three
tricks is the finesse of the club
queen to the first club lead. If play
ers could be brought to realize that
circumstances alter cases and that
plays which are entirely sound un
der some conditions are entirely un
sound under others, they would have
less cause to condone errors which
often result in the loss of several
tricks. Under usual conditions the
finesse of the club queen would be
perfectly right; in this case it is en
tirely wrong; as if it is unsuccessful
A will take out dummy's only re
maining re-entry before his suit is
established, and then, as declarer
holds but ace and queen of the suit,
it will be impossible frfr the suit to
be b rought in. If, on the other
hand, Z plays ace to the first round
and, at once Jias a second, round, forc-
Z makes four by cards, or game,
with one trick to spare.
At trick 3, having won the previous
trick with king and seeing that dum
my's suit is established and that he
holds ace of his own suit (hearts) as
re-entry, A refrains from continuing
his suit, and at trick 4 leads rather
a spade in the hope it will reach
strength in his partner's hand. De
clarer can lose nothing by bis failure
to play ace. The rest of the hand
plays itself. A at trick 5 continues
the spade, Z gets in the lead and at
trick 6 puts dummy in with the heart
Dummy thus makes his four remain
ing clubs, and at trick 11 leads a
small diamond, declarer winning with
king, and at trick 12 making his
diamond ace. A wins trick 13 with
the diamond queen. A's discards are
most perplexing, but he reasons that
his best chance of scoring one or
more additional tricks lies in guard
ing the queen of diamonds, so dis
cards rather from his established
hearts. As the cards lie he can make
but one more trick in any event,
though this he does not know. Had
he unguarded his diamond queen, de
clarer would make another trick.
The following hand illustrates the
importance of giving the dummy hand
a ruff and of taking the rnff with
such card as will not block the
trumps in declarer's hand, thus pre
venting the lead of trumps at the
time they should be led:

trick with the ace. At
Trick 5 he leads another diamond,

while, to be sure, dummy would take
a round of trumps, he (declarer)
would be unable to get the lead at the

Many players in Z's holding would
have bid no trumps rather than a
suit which contained four cards only.
Z, however, tempted doubtless by a
64-point honor score, bid a heart.
There being no other bid, the hand
was played at this declaration, with
the result, owing to skillful play,
that Z scored a little slam, a total
of 170 18 for tricks, 72 for honors
(the dummy holding the fifth honor)
and 60 for slam. The no-trump dec
laration, as it happens, would have
given Z a greatly Inferior score, as
A would have run off his five dia
monds before he (Z) would have got
ten In the lead. To be sure he would
have every trick from then on, but
his score at best would- be but 50 20
for tricks and 30 for honors. This,
however, would have been a contin
