THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, FRIDAY JUNE 5, 1981 | Airline Carries Its Passengers at 180-Mile-An-Hour Average Speed OKLAHOMA-TEXAS SYSTEMS FASTEST Bowen Lines Run Between Youston and Oklahoma City, San Antonio and Tulsa GOT IDEA FROM LINDBERGH Retractable Landing Gear In-/ stalled in Six Passenger Planes to Boost Speed Dallas, ‘Tex. June 5.—Cruising | along smoo'ia! and sometimes speeding up to 235! the world’s fastest miles an hur passenger-carrying air service is{ operating on the twin lines of the; between Houston and and San Antonio and Previous to thi new speed rate, two lines held the record of 150 miles an hour for fastest passenger service. In addition to the Bowen line, there was the Braniff line, which operates | between Oklahoma City, Tulsa, Kan- | sas City ind Chicago. This line is operated by the Braniff brothers, T. E. Braniff, president, and Paul R. Braniff, secretary-treasurer. H The Braniffs had long planned to | raise even this high speed, but the| Bowen system has beaten them to it.) The jump i speed, from 30 to 75/ miles an hour faster, is due to the) foresight of Temple Bowen. A pioneer in the field of trans- portation in Texas, Bowen started out with a moderate hauling business and jumped into aviation after he had established one of the largest bus systems in the world. Lindy Gave Bowen Idea Bowen read of Colonel Lindbergh's experiments with the _ retractable landing gear in the Lockheed air- Planes. He found that with his type of undercarriage the speed of an air- plane could be increased as much as 40 miles an hour. In a consultation with the Lock- heed officials, Bowen asked them to build a plane with retractable land- ing gear, but with a cabin holding six passengers beside the pilot. Engineers at first theught it couldn't be done, but after experimenting they con- structed she fleet cabin ships which now speed over the system’s routes. It is possible, by using the Bowen and Braniff lires in conjunction, to at 180 miles an hour, |~ | Transports Passengers at 180-Mile-an-Hour Clip | IN UNTED STATES an average speed of 180 miles an hour.

MCKENNEY j Secretary American Bridge League | Due to the extraordinarily high re- | quirements necessary for a forcing | two bid under the writer's system of contract bidding, another bid has been provided to take care of the strong hands that are not quite pow- erful enough to make this forcing bid. These are the original bids of three of a suit, and show partner a long! trump suit and a hand that only quires one trick from partner to go game. In other words, the three bidder shows a hand containing not only a good suit, but side defensive strength and assures you that with an incard in your hand, he will un- doubtedly go game. He further i dicates that he has no desire to play | the hand at no trump. i Partner's Response to | Original Three of a Suit Bid When partner makes an original three of a suit bid and your hand contains at least two small irump and a possible incard, take partner to four. If you have a trick in your hand, and are void in partner's suit ur have @ singleton and no good biddabie suit of your own bid three no trump to! advise partner that you hold less, than two of his trump but do have | the required trick. Partner may be able to show another suit or if one of the opponents now puts in a bid, | he is warned of your trump situation. Holding an absolutely worthless | hand and not normal support in Contract Bridge System— is the proper bid; e. g. you hold three | small trump and a doubleton in an- other si Although you have no high cards in any of the other suits, undoubtedly partner will be able to ruff the third card in the suit in which you hold a doubleton and thereby gain an entry to your hand. This is sufficient to raise partner to four. Even in some cases, when hold- ing a singleton in a side suit and two of partner's trump, the bid of four can be made. Original Bids of Three No Trump It is very seldom that you will hold a hand where your correct opening bid will be three no trump. An orig- inal three no trump bid shows a hand with all four suits doubly stopped and no good biddable four-card suit. Generally speaking, a hand this powerful can be opened with an original forcing suit bid of two. It is far better to start with the forcing two-suit bid. You are as- sured of getting to at least a game- going declaration, and with a little help from partner, you will be able to arrive at a slam declaration, while with an original three no trump bid, partner is very apt to pass, even though his hand contains one or one and one-half quick tricks. Remember that high original bids prevent partner from giving you in- telligent information. Start the bids low whenever possible unless you have one of the above described hands, or a pre-emptive type hand which will be explained in our follow- breakfast at Houston, lunch in St.! partner's suit, you may pass, but! ing article.

Editor, Tribune: I see by the paper that the governor of North Dakota has issued a procla- mation naming June 15-20 as Dairy Week and ‘asking the people of our state to observe it by consuming more dairy supplies. With butter at 20 cents-® pound and everything else in Proportion along this line, the poor dairy farmer sure needs somebody's support, but with dairy prices even as low as they are, how are people with- out jobs or money going to help the dairymen’s cause.

County Named in Honor of Father Of E. A. Williams Editor's Note: The following is one of a series of articles deal- ing with the history of North Da- kota counties. (By the Associated Press) Hettinger county—The county was named in honor-of the father of Erastus A. Williams, who served as the first president of the city com- mission of Bismarck. The organiza- tion of the county dates from April 17, 1907, when it became an inde- | pendent unit by gubernatorial procla- mation, but the real settlement of the county by agriculturists began in 1904.

D., June 5.—Forty-five sheepmen of Mountrail county gath- ered at the courthouse in Stanley for their annual wool pool meeting and voted to load wool at Stanley June 29 and at Van Hook June 30. President David Bartleson presided at the meeting. A discussion on wool grading, proper twine, tying up fleeces and the National Wool Pool was led by County Agent Fiske. Arrangements are being made to make a down payment on the wool when it is loaded at the cars. A resolution also was adopted by the, .wool growers to adopt a wage scale of 15 cents per head tor shear- jing and they instructed the county |agent to make same public. eee, | AT THE MOVIES CAPITOL THEATRE Realistic, whimsical humanness and humor, homely drama and touches of pathos seems to be the most harmo- nious elements for really appealing film stories. ‘These, plus a charming love story, make Radio Pictures’ “Laugh and Get Rich,” at the Capitol theatre, one of the’ finest family entertainments of the year. The picture not only sparkles with humor in situation and dialog, but it packs’ many a surprise punch. Edna May Oliver, who contributed a characterization gem to “Cimarron” as Mrs. Wyatt, and Hugh Herbert, one of the most capable of stage and screen comedians and character actors, are teamed as the operators of ‘a small city boarding house. Dorothy Lee, in her best talkie role to date, is their daughter. The fortunes and misfortunes of these three central characters form the basis of the in- tensely human and likeable story. ‘No mere synposis can give the sparkling humor, the charming real- ism of “Laugh and Get Rich.” The only way to understand its appeal is NOTICE oa State of North Dakota, County of ‘Burleigh—In District Court, Fourth Judicial District.

PARAMOUNT THEATRE | That Richard Barthelmess has made much of the greatest role of his career was evidenced at the Para- mount theatre when the _ First National production “The Finger Points” opened its local engage- ment. He plays the part of a Big Town reporter who in order to get money to spend on the “sob sister” he loves, covers crime in exchange for bribes he extorts from gangdom. ,Barthlemess portrays with rare un- derstanding the changing character of the young man who comes from the South with high ideals as to the duty of the press to the public, and gradually falls under the power of greed which finally brings its retribu- tion—with the added tragedy that the public never finds out that he is not ths honorable man he pretends to be. Fay Wray as the “sob sister” of the newspaper who loves the unfortun- ate youth and keeps his secret to the last, gives a performance of rare! beauty. INSECTS’ BILL J.
