On further investigation they discovered that the horse was tied to me moving car. They ordered both the car and the horse to halt.

The driver, Joseph Marco, told the two officers that he found the horse running around loose in Old Forge. The police took the animal from DeMarco and let him drive awav. Then they didn't know what to do with the horse. They searched the radio car for a lasso but there was none among the equipment. The horse was pursuing his own fancy and Mattson kept him from getting too far away by running ahead of the animal and waving his hat.

Davis called for the West Side patrol wagon. "He won't fit in that," said Mattson as the patrol arrived. "No, but we can tie tim to it, can't we?" asked Davis. "With what?" asked Mattson. Sergeant Davis scratched his head.

After a lengthy search a piece of wire was discovered. "I'm going to ask for a lasso for this car," said Sergeant Davis as he struggled with the horse in an attempt to tie it to the wagon. The animal followed the wagon to the station house. A few hours later, Mrs. Lebra Roga, Old Forge, appeared with a rope, claimed the horse and led it away.

Logic Today's Contract Problem Against South' contract of three spades, doubled. East and West have taken the first three tricks with the ace of hearts, the ace of clubs, and the ace of diamonds.

West returns the club four. Can declarer keep West from winning more than one trump trick? A 105 84 10963 J87 AQ9732 Vt7 AQ7 A42 4.AKJ64 VKJ10 8 K965 None vul. Opener 9 Solution in next issue. ft justify a raise, but would still produce four hearts in play. On the opening lead, West thought that the seven was a good enough card to play, but he should have played the nine.

East now decided to lead one round of spades, which North ruffed. North drew the adverse trumps and then played the club three. Here East erred and played the queen. East returned a spade, which North ruffed. Then a diamond was led and, when the ace won, it was all over.

The ace of clubs dropped West's king, and North made four hearts. Of course, the defense was bad. As the cards lie, East and West could have won two diamonds, two clubs, and one heart, a set of two, worth 500 points. Against this, they could have made four spades, worth 620 points, so, even if the defense had not faltered, North's bid was very profitable.

Town Hall, the records show, was constructed back around 1880 on a site where Luther Keller ran his blacksmith shop. It became the center of all community affairs. During the period when handled barred mustached gentlemen and bustled ladies with hands behind their backs whirred around on roller skates, it was popular as a skating rink.

Wilkes Barre Woman Hurt as Auto Tips CARBONDALE, Sept.

7. A Wilkes Barre was injured when the car in which she "was riding overturned at Washington Street and Lincoln Avenue this afternoon. She is Mrs. Harry Jones, 37, 15 Elder Street, that city. She was treated at the General Hospital for a fractured right arm, body bruises and shock.

According to the investigation of Chief of Police Frank J. O'Boyle, the Wilkes Barre car was being operated by the woman's husband when it figured in a collision with a machine driven by Robert Walsh, 7 South Hospital Street. The impact caused the Jones car to strike the curb and tip over. Ginty, started from Town Hall on their way to the top. Many of the world's greatest singers appeared there.

Caruso, John McCormack, Madame Schu mann Heink and Antonio Scotti Paderewski gave concerts there on several occasions. Sousa and Gold man's Band played at the hall on their numerous visits to the city. But with the opening of the Masonic Temple the affairs at Town Hall have been confined to sports, card parties and dances. Dressed up in its modern decorations, Mr. Cohen js sure it will capture some of its old time glory.

E. McKENNEY When North opened the bidding on the hand which forms the subject of today's discussion, he had no idea that he was defending. He thought he had a very good looking hand, with which game was a fair prospect and slam a remote possibility, if only his part ner held a few high cards in the minor suits. East held the traditional require ments for a double to get a bid by his partner slightly more than three quick tricks and ability to play the hand at any suit his partner might name. South, with the much hated bust, and, worse still, short in his partner's suit, passed, and there begins the story.

North was entirely too optimis tic in his second bid, but the hand played at duplicate, where the contest was for glory, rather than for cash, and he decided that it Solution to Previous Contract Problem A None VAKQJ86 J854 A43 4KQ74 V42 AK10 1.0 5 2 A 8 6 107 Q632 A J976 Duplicate All vul.
