BiddabU Suits.
The requirements for making an
opening suit bid of one, that I pre
fer to any other list ef require-
aents, are: as follows: (1) At
east two sure tricks; (2) A bid
dable, suit ef not less than four
cards; (3) Five , probable tricks
(including the sure tricks) ; (4)
Four assisting tricks for partner,
or ability to rebid.
My fourth requirement ox four
assisting tricks for partner in
cludes enough honor values to ob
viate mentioning more than two
sure tricks, or quick tricks, in my
first requirement. Many fine
players open upon ability to win
only four tricks; I never found it
to mv advantage to bid so weak a
- hand ; just remember that the pure
ly average hand can win five
tricks at its best make, and that
an f opening bid announces some
thing better than average, either in
quick tricks or total probable
tricks. v
Some tables of biddable suits re
quire from 1 to 1 H quick tricks
at the head of 4&rd or 6-card
suits; again my experience witn
these onemna bids miorms me tnat
no such restrictive rules are de
sirable. My ewn rule is as follows:
A biddable suit must contain at
least four cards worth at least two
nrobable trumn tricks. These bid'
liable suits, provided the remainder
of the hand justifies, are: a-io-
X-X5 K-Q-X-Xi 1W-10-A1 Vi-i-A
X X j MO-X-X-Xi any suit ef eta
or more cards. Not one of these '
listed holdings counts less than 4
points Or a pro be we tncas. -
Occasionally I nave dm a weaker
suit than the above when ever
whelming tide strength urged such
action. The other evening I bid 1
Heart on Z's hand. When my part
ner bid 1-Spade, then Z-bpadet
over my shift to no-trumps, I bid
S-No Trumps, and ' I made 4-odd j
nothing could have prevented ml
scoring game.

If hanil was too strong to pass.
I could not bid a suit of less than
four cards. I had no desire to bid
an immediate no-trump without a
Jrobable trick in either major suit,
ly 2tt probable club tricks plus
my three diamonds tricks was too
great strengtn to ignore, l maae
what seemed the soundest declara
tion when I bid 1-Heart; something
which probably would " be least

verse Is In a state of continual
rebirth. The other explanation
would be that cosmic radiation
could be produced only through
the breaking up of complex atoms
into simpler types. This would
lend credence to the belief that
"the universe Is running down."
Dr. Millikan's theory of contin
ual rebirth has been supported by
some experiments by Dr. Comp-
ton, who Is continuing the work
he started last September and Oc
tober on Mount Evans, Colorado
and the Jungfrau in the Swiss
Alps.

come from inter-stellar space.
Thus the cosmic rays seem to be
similar to starlight."
The theory that cosmic rays are
protons, rather than electrons,
would be supported if they are
found to be equal at all the widely
dispersed stations. It would also
affirm the view that they n.e gen
erated by atomic disturbances in
the unknown regions millions of
light years away.

party, further measurements In

Tne issue was f brought to a
head at a recent meeting of tha

rector Gehlhar made a report to
this body in which the fair man

report have never been divulged
here, but It was read before a re
cent meeting of the Pomona
grange in Yamhill county by Mor

commission. A report Is current
here that the advisory commis

be not reemployed. Friends of
Mrs. Wilson attribute this to
Gehlhar's influence with his own
board.
The law creating the agricul
ture department abolished the
state fair board and the office of
its secretary and vested all auth
ority In the hands ef the director
of tha department. When Mr.
Gehlhar assumed office last July
he promptly advised the state fair
board that he "would call on
them if he needed any help," and
to date nas not asked for any
from them. While ha has full an
thorlty not o retain Mrs. Wilson,
who has been identified with the
state fair since 1111, the 'question
is sure to be presented to Gov,
Meier soon after his return, eith
er through the communication
from the advisory board, or Di
rector Gehlhar or through Mrs.
Wilson who does not intend to re
linquish her post without defend
lng her administration against
what she deems unwarranted
charges. "
A trump card with Mrs. Wilson
is said to be the friendly attitude
of exhibitors with whom she has
worked for many years. They are
relied on to exert pressure on the
governor to retain Mrs. Wilson
whose management of the fair
has pleased them.
The Issue Is a sharp one. Friends
of both endeavored to get a re
conciliation, but with scant suc
cess. Whether Gov. Meier may
pacify the two high-placed offi
cials remains to be seen. He may
not attempt it, but may sacrifice
one or the other. Director Gehlhar

Speaker Garner said the tariff

Representative Snell the repub
