PTGE EIGHT MEPrOIiD MUC TRTBUKE, MEDFORD. OREGON, MONDAY, OCTOBER 31, 1932. LIST CONTRACT BRIDGE SCORE CHANGES E FOR INFRINGEMENT E Psychic Bidding Upheld in Principle Penalties Less - ened In Some Instances Better Memories Needed. Br TOM O'NEIL WEW TOHK, Oct. 31 (AP) Pen- sjtiea for being set are changed un der a new oode of rulea for the game of contract effective tomorrow. Non Tulnerable undertrlcka will cost about ten per cent more and all cate gories of vulnerable undertrlcka about ten per cent less. The old method jf scoring undoubted not Tulnerable un dertrlcks Is retained. . There are five major changes In scoring and many changes In penal ties for infringement of the rules un der a code promulgated today by the Whist club of New York, the Portland olub of London, and the Commission Franoalae du bridge. A committee of representatives of American bridge organizations Indorsed the changes. . but If the comments of some of them are any Indication, moves to have a representative American body make future changes will be Intensified. Changes Listed Here are tho scoring changes: TTndertrlcks 60 points ponalty per trick not doubled and not vulnerable; doubled and not vulnerable, 100 for the first undertrlck, and an Increase of 50 for each successive undertrlck; vulnerable snd undoubted, . same as doubled and not vulnerable: vulner able and double, twice the vulnerable ' undoubled. 140 trump valuation Three no - trump equals five diamonds or five clubs. This Is brought about by valuing- the odd-numbered no trump tricks over book at 30 each and the even-numbered tricks at 40 each. Grand slams 1500 not vulnerable and 3,250 vulnerable. Little slam pre miums remain 500 and 750. Overtrlcks If one Is not doubled and makes more tricks than contract ed for the premium la the number of overtrlcks multiplied by the suit val ue. That Is If one contracted for three spades and made five, 60 would be scored above the line Instead of the 100 under the old system. Tho old premiums for doubled and redoubled overtrlcks are retained. Premium Abolished Premiums for erectly fulfilling doub led or redoubled contracts these are abolished. The old rules provide 50 points premium for fulfilling a doub led not vulnerable contract, 100 for doubled vulnerable contract, and 100 and 300 for redoubled contracts. The new scoring for doubled and redoubled undertrlcka Is going to cause the most difficulty for players to learn. Bald Ely Culbertson: "Many players will object that It Is too dif ficult to remember and oomDute. feel sorry for the hundreds of thou sands of women who with the ld scoring got along pretty well with the oouro on ten fingers and who now with the new scoring will have to take off their shoes to count on their toes as well." Herewith la a formula for reason ably easy computation of the total penalty for any number of doubled not vulnerable undortrlcks. Take and keep adding successive figures unttl one past the number of tricks se. Multiply the total by 60. The re 'suit Is the total penalty. For Instance five down doubled and dot vulnerable: a plus 3 plus 4 plus 5 plus 8 equals u. multiply ny oo enuala ),0, the penalty tor five down doubled and not vulnerable and also for five down vulnerable. mo ponaicy ior any particular un dertrlck doubled and not vulnerable M oo multiplied by a furure comnu ted by adding 1 to the number of the trick. That la the nenaltv for th. third undertrlck Is 50 (8 plus 1) or Physio Bids t'pheld Ths Whist club In effect upheld jruuc Diaaing ny aecldlna not to in crease the not vulnerable undoubted penalties. To remove the psyohlo pos- .uiut; completely rrom the game, ays us announcement, would take aosi ana variety and make It too cut ana dried, Penalties for Infringements of the laws In the view of the Whist club, nave ucen connldemblv ame IorAtl though Ely Culbertson thinks some or sucm penalties are a little blood thirsty. Heretofore the partner of a uia out or turn was aoDarred from the auction. Now the opponents of such an offender may oall for a new deal. Players must have better memories in one respect. No longer can one have a free look at a quitted trick. -nuw mere is a penalty for looking at cams wnue -ihey are dealt. SPEEDY BALL CARRIER OF COUGARS fjctwl ' owe EUGENE HIGH OF NEXT US!

Portland Schools Tie In Grid Lead PORTLAND, Ore., Oct. 81. (AP) The gridiron machines of Roosevelt and Jefferson hlgn schools continue to top the field In Portland Inter scholastic football league, each with out a defeat. Gets Ducks O, h. Reynolds of the Holland hotel apent yesterday hunt ing on Upper Klammath lake, and re-, turned here with a number of ducks. I Medford high school football squad without a mark to show for Its thorough and business-like trouncing Saturday of the sadl7 over-touted Klamath Palls squad will play the Eugene high school here next Satur day. On Armistice day, ahe Burgher melsters will play University high of Eugene, on Van ecoyoc field. Coach Burgher will start preparing for the Eugene high game thU after noon. The Lane county squad Is com' posed of big youths, who are no't spectacular, but possessed of power. Klamath Gloomy The Klamath Falls team who start ed shouting state championship claims before the season opened, went home disappointed. According to Joe Flgney, sports writer of the Klamath Falls Herald, it will be three years before the Pelicans recover, and Mr. Plgney feels bad about It himself, Says he: "A year will go by, another and still another, and then the sick-sore ness of defeat will be shaded and for gotten by the rise of other fine Peli can, football teams. "A season of ambition, a season of concentration pointing toward the one "great" game of the schedule was washed away in tears actually tears, for more than one Klamath boy and girl left Van Scoyoc field sobbing as the Medford Tigers, but once de feated by a Pelican team, plunged passed and kicked Its way to three touchdowns and three conversions in a 31 to 0 victory this afternoon." Youth forgets .Its sorrows fast, and despite the gloomy Plgney predic tions, the Klamath lads will be out of their misery In about three days. Tigers Tricky The Burghermelsters won because tney played better, and tnougnt rast er than the Pelicans. When Klamath was set for a line plunge, -the locals passed, and when they were prepared for pass they plunged. This was made possible by the headwork of Quarter back Red Scheel, acting under orders from his coach. There were no stars In the Medford squad they were machine. They went about the Job of crushing Klamath Falls methodical ly, and a stonewall line, worked to perfection for a fast back field. For some reason the Pelicans had a special grudge against Glem of Medford. Norman Taber boasted he would smash through the stocky tackle for gains, when needed. Glem was told about It before the game, and Mr; Taber was flopped for losses all afternoon. Passes Smothered McAninion, Pelican quarter was Trucfc The Driver Is Human . Give Him a Chance . . VOTE 314 X YES! FREIGHT TRUCK AND BUS BILL MOTOR transportation companies, now inadequately -regulated, require their drivers to make long, haz ardous trips without rest and at a deplorably low wage. This practice is unjust and highly dangerous. Tired men make mistakes easily: Investigation of recent major truck accidents develops that the drivers had been on duty excessively long hours. The Freight Truck and Bus Bill will stop this selfish and dangerous labor-exploiting practice by giving the driver decent working hours through reasonable and just regu ' lations. It will make it possible for the driver to sleep at home instead of behind the wheel of a fast-moving truck. It will give him hours at home with his family, every man's just heritage. It will make the highways safer for you and your family. It points the way to a lower pass enger car license. It will NOT put 27,000 men out of em ployment; it will increase employment by eliminating the trailer and employing two men to do two men's work. Vote 314 X Yes-Freight Truck and Bus Bill It will REGULATE (Not Eliminate) commercial trucks and buse. No community will be deprived of adequate bus and truck service.

SUCCESSFUL PSYCHIC By Tom O'NeU A bid of two or three no trump when a hand contains a long minor suit wun tops and little else, is garded, under some conditions, by many players as the best of psychics or semi -psychics. It Is Incorporated as a principle of some bidding systems. Often tt deters a vulnerable side from entering an easy game contract or Indeed bidding at all. Ths pen alty to the non -vulnerable side Is relatively slight at times and there have been psychics of this kind which have produced game. At double dummy play probably any such psychic would be penalized, heavily, but the adversaries are likely to make an original lead favorable to the declarer, and the first lead tells the story. The bid usually Is made third hand when the non-vulnerable dealer has passedo As such, It Is a new Culbert sonlan wrinkle. 8ome players regard Mrs. Dorothy Sims as the real In ventor. She devised It as a method of scaring a vulnerable side which had opened the auction with a game, demand bid. "Barricade psychic' the termed it. In one variation the no trump Is offered after the enemy has bid a suit snd when there Is one sure stop per of that suit In the no trump bid der's hand. In this case there Is game for the declsrer If the first leader opens the suit bid. The de fense Is to open another suit. At rubber bridge the bid has been found quite successful by Edwin A. Moree of New York. Here is a hand In which he won game at no trump without a stopper In three suits: West tried at once to set up the spade suit. Moree, lucky to find a spade stopper In dummy, took sine tricks,, making game. A lead of a diamond or a heart by west could have caused Moree to be well set. West and east could have made game with ease In spades, hearts or dia monds. The moral would seem to be that against a dubious no trump bid It might be well to open some other suit than the one which ordinarily would be the best. When doubled on such a no trump bid as Moree'. some plsyers are ln clfed to bid the long minor. Moree has found it averages better to let the no trump double stand.
