(Continued From Page One)
They were L. E Everett, Eldorado,
Kan ; Homer Jones, Lob Angeles,
and William C. Craig. Brooklyn,;
N. Y. One bandit searched Jones, j
but found his purse empty. Jones j
a few minutes before had removed
S6O from the purse and hidden it \
on his person.
Taxi Driver Is Detained
Earl Sutherlin, taxi driver with ;
a stand outside the hotel, hearing!
the confusion, had walked into the i
hotel, thinking a fight was taking
place, and also was detained.
Concluding their search, the;
bandits herded the employes and j
guests into the hotel elevator and !
locked them in a seventh floor room
before escaping.
The bellboy climbed out of a win
dow, down a fire scape and reached
the hotel switchboard, where he
called police, and then released the
others.
When the bandits first drew their >
weapons, one w’alked to Hoefleld,
the doorman, and poked a gun into
his head.
“I Ought to Kill Yon!”
Hoefleld, who had seen the bandit!
visit his car several times, and
thought him intoxicated, pushed
him away, saying: “What's the mat
ter with you?”
“This is a stickup; T ought to kill
you, you ,” screamed
the outraged gunman. Hoefleld held j
up his hands and marched into the
lobby.
Employes said the bandits were
eager for every penny they could
get, one even stooping to pick up a
get, one even stooping to pick up
from the floor a few of the bellhop's >
pennes from newspaper sales.
The blond bandit scooped up
about a dozen stamps from the I
cash drawer and put them in his
pocket, asking Lewis if he didn’t
have any more.
Footballers in Lobby
During visits of the brown-haired
bandit to the lobby previous to the j
robbery, a group of members of the
Cardinals football team, which j
played here Wednesday night, were
sitting in the lobby of the hotel.
It is believed the bandits, noticing
the husky build of the football play- !
ers, decided to delay the holdup un
til all had gone to their rooms.
Manager Griffith said the exact
loss would not be known until the
hotel books could be audited, and ;
guests consulted to learn contents
of permanent guest envelopes taken
from the safe. Only envelopes left j
by transient guests were in the cash
drawer.
The bandits worked leisurely un
til the blond injured his hand, the
hotel employes said, nearly an hour
elapsing between the time the bell
boy was called to the bandits’ room
and the time they departed.
Police squads under Lieutenant •
Ed Schubert and Sergeant Claude
Kinder investigated.

Contract Bridge
BY W. E. M’KENNEY
Secretary American Bridge League
A HAND usually contains only
one good lesson, but the fol
lowing hand contains four—one in
bidding and in the play of the
hand.
South, the dealer, bid one club,
West overcalled with one heart,
North bid two diamonds, and South
bid two spades. West bid three
hearts, and North bid three spades.
Some South players now went to
four spades. However, the better
bid is four diamonds. This gives
North the choice of going to four
spades or five diamonds. If he goes
to four spades, the hand should be
passed, while if he goes to five
diamonds. South is justified in bid
ding for the small slam in diamonds.
In playing the hand at diamonds,
the declarer should establish the
fifth club upon which to discard his
five of spades, thereby avoiding the
necessity of guessing the spade
finesse.
At several tables, South was the
declarer at four spades. When West
opens the ace of hearts and con
tinues with a heart. South must re
fuse to ruff the second heart because
he holds only four spades and one
of the opponents may.a Iso hold four.
To ruff certainly would lose the
contract. By refusing to ruff the
second heart all that the declarer
need do is to lose a spade, and his
contract is made.
At another table the singleton
diamond was opened, and South
won with the king. The natural

play to most people is to try to
ruff one of the losing clubs, but
this play is wrong.
You have a singleton heart.
Therefore, you can expect to find
uneven distribution on the other
two hands. The lead of a diamond
certainly looks like a singleton. If
you ruff the third club and it is
overruffed by East, East will lead
a diamond, which will be ruffed by
West. Then another club will be
returned, which will cause you to
lose an extra spade trick.
The correct play is to lead a
king, take the spade finesse ( lead
another trump and then start the
diamonds. East will be forced to
ruff with his good trump, and that
is the only trick the declarer need
lose.
