We do answer many private queries but are just as willing to give an answer in our column. The question you ask is: Question: Is one over one forcing for more than ong response? That is docs the responding hand n'eed to reply again and is one no-trump by the responding hand considered a one over one? Answer: No, the one over one is only forcing for one round which means that the declarer must bid again, and there the bidding may die." Example; Declarer Partner 19. Pass Pass 10 7 20 INT A one no-trump response to partner's opening suit bid of one, proving second hand has passed, is not a one over one force as it Is a negative response placing the equivalent of one honor trick.

Mrs. Jules Lcmoine -won the high score, 4260 and we've one tit' the auction winners as well, which is fair enough.

Mrs. Mildred Miller made 2040 points. The American Legion Hall is a popular place for benefit parties, for on this last week's Tuesday night a Catholic society sponsored a whist fiesta of 27 tables. It still takes old grand daddy whist to draw the largest crowds, and it still is a grand game, Mrs. Fred Booth of Danville won the highest score of the evening, it being 120 points.

Father Louis Miller was the recipient of a special award. ASKING BIDS RESPONSES Last we come-to the sixth choice we have at our disposal when forced to answer our partner's ask ing bid.

March 14 to 28, through the visual education department, xeacn- From Local Playground OAKLAND HIGH TO FEATURE FIVE SPORTS With the entire Junior High sports program at Oakland High, under the direction of Coach Ralph Ker- cnum, tne season is off to an au- icious etart in an intra-mural league contest com prising 3.2 "Bo me rooms. It is an en-tirely new set-up for the junior department, having been at the start of the Spring er. The competitive schedule in volves five RALPH KERCIIUM major, sports: touchtackle, baseball and track. The first two sports already have been completed with 55 teams entered in the basketball tournament from the seventh, eighth and ninth grades and with every player and team rated for award eligibility on the basis of sportsmanship rather than on winning scores Frick Jun-t ior High pioneered the idea which seems admirably designed for the non-specialized younger athlete who all too often is carried beyond the boundaries of code and caution by his zeal and zest of the game. WORTHWHILE AIM With Coach Kerchum following in the' footsteps of his colleagues, poaches TolmSn and Taber, the plan is assured of future favor by other- athletic mentors.

Perhaps emphasis centered on "sportsmanship" from early age will, in time to come, exterminate the college "poor sport" and "dirty player." It's worth trying. The "Junior Hieh Boys' Athletic Council," which has been (of 'cou-sel alnhahetized to JHBAC, is an offlc'als' club comprised of representatives from each of the 32 home rooms, who become of their respective ters and In exclusive charge of the hcmerQpm'i sport nrotrram. Every player on each captain-. manager's teajis must compete in three of the five seasonal major sports, to become eligible for an award, and to date, Coach Kerchum says, the boys have responded 100 per cent.

.4 Spring! it is here at last, 'j for yesterday's calendar formally 2 ushered inhis gladsome season in California, when there's a lilt to the chirping of the birds, when the poets sing of the young man and his fancies. But what did this sea- ion mean to our granaparentsr 2 House cleaning! Cleaning in the good, old-fashioned way, with i broom, mop andynstpan, with head bound up to keep off the dust. A veritable orgy of, cleaning, with. erandfather snitching a bite now' and then from ihe pantry shelf, for i hw dears, there was no time for I regular meals, as it was Spring, and i ine yearly niau ncoia ui hum 1 cvatlng must be endured. r-.

Today is different; housekeeping, I with all its modern conveniences, only needs a bit of. renovating i when the season arrives. And what doe this season mean to contract players? Renovating that is it. ah Winter long we ve Deen using me old system, and each year some part of it becomes shop-won or is found to be too weak to carry its proper loads, so our commander-in-chief looks about and offers other devices to take the-placeof these castoffs. RUBBISH DISCARDED Last year we had a thorough house-cleaning frdnv cellar to garret, one of grandmother' kind, and 11 the unsatisfactory gadgets were either discarded or patched up a bit and many new ones appropriated.

Even some of the friendly owners of other contract furniture contributed the best they had, but after a year we either are tired of the old familiar setting and long for new furnishings, of some sort, or else we've found weakness where we had needed strength. Nothing worth while in this world ot ours remains at a standstill; either progress, improve. or retrograde. Styles- In clothing, house furnishings, styles in architecture, automobiles, and as. for Spring bonnets wen, mis year must be the general renovation of the milliner's attic.

So it is with all outdoor sports, Each year we sit on the side lines at football games thinking we Know i all the clays, when lo ana De I hold, a new one appears and bas- ketball and tennis all change their I atyles a bit from season to season, Our generalissimo Is a wise gen-I man who knows all the answers I before the question is asked, so each year at this season we aro not disappointed we, toor nave aomething new in the way of bids or responses to show to our friends in other lines of sport. PARTNER WHIST ANSWER Thii season all our rugs, chairs, and everv-day fixtures remain quite stationary, not even being Justed Off, they nave wunsiooa me i yean so well. The maestro has of-; fefed' us some extra special bids I and things to use for a t'me and see 1 how we like them. Knowing how the human race likes to ask quesi tiona, hexhas thrown in the asking-, bid, of which- we are writing in our (Jaily column. All writers nay i it has iaken Hhe country by storm, Why? Because we who love to ask I want to have a definite answer, and these asking bids have very specific answers.

That is why. if for no other reason, this one bid appeals, to our great American public our partner must answer befoie he asks a question himself. There are some other interesting fanciet also that we'll tell about when we finish with these asking bids and their answers. CULBERTSONS DATE Culbertson in person.
