Coincident with the signing of the Muscle Shoals bill by President Roosevelt, allegations that the huge
federal power plant has been misused by private companies cast a shadow over the rejoicing of Sena-
" tor George Xorrls, of Nebraska, who has fought long and hard for the bill. It Is charged In a report
by Louis R. Claris, special Investigator for the department of the interior, that two private companies,
both of which lease power from the government pi ant under a war department contract, have used the
facilities of the federal plant to effect an interchange of power between themselves, by which practice
considerable damage has been done to federal equ Ipment. The first hint of irregularities in operation
was made to Senator Hugo Black of Alabama.

PITTSBURGH, May 24 ( AP) Mathematicians are tak

Miss Lillian Goldstein and Miss

The students hope to determine
not only the evaluation of card
combinations but, by the aid of
arithmetical calculation the
manner In which these hands
should be played. Dr. Taylor says.
The research conducted by the
students serves as a check on
values of hands allotted by bridge
experts. The figures obtained in
dicate that standard values given
to low card hands by bridge au
thorities, have apparently been
set too high in some instances,
while those for high card hands
have been underestimated.
He says it is possible to build
635,013,559,600 different hands
from the 52 cards composing the
