E. McKENNEY Secretary, American Bridge League There are two original forcing suit bids employed in the one over one system. They are: 1, The original forcing suit bid of two, which will be explained today. 2. The original forcing suit bid of three, which will be explained in tomorrow's article. The principal difference in the two bids is that the original bidder, when making a forcing suit bid of two, is prepared to allow his partner to become the declarer—in other words, his hand can safely become the dum- ‘Tuesday by the Burleigh county sher- iff's office. Langer Wednesday issued a state- ment to the Associated Press, through his campaign headquarters. declaring the suit is “a political frame-up,” and a “last minute piece of political prop- aganda.” . Mrs. Johnson alleges she paid Lan- fer $2,000 to bring about the release from the state penitentiary of her son, Floyd, a life prisouer, but that Langer had failed “to render any service or to do anything with respect thereto.” The complaint, presented to the Ward county district court at Minot, states that Mrs. Johnson was solicited by Dell Patterson, then a member of the North Dakota state senate, “to see and employ” Langer “for the pur- pose and to the end of obtaining the release” of her son from the state penitentiary. Mrs. Johnson alleges in the com- plaint that on October 18, 1929, she was introduced to Langer at Minot and was told by the lawyer that, un- der a state law, no application for pardon or commutation of sentence could be presented to the state par- don board nor acted on by it “for a long period of time,” and that the law would have to be changed. Was Asked $5,000 The woman's complaint states that Langer told her he could obtain her son’s release “within a reasonable time,” and that to obtain the youth’s freedom “it would be necessary to do a great amount of work and see a large number of people.” She asserts in the complaint that Langer asked: $5,000 for his fee, but on expressing her inability to pay this amount, it was agreed she pay the lawyer $2,000 in cash and $2,000 when and if the re- lease of her son was obtained. Mrs. Johnson said she gave Langer! two checks drawn on the First Nation- al bank of Donnybrook, N. D., one bearing date of October 18, 1929, for $1,000, and another bearing date of; December 1, 1929, for $1,000. The complaint further alleges that | Langer drew up a contract which she signed; that on July 8, 1932, she noti- fied Langer she desired to cancel this contract, and that Langer refus- | ed to return the money. | Mrs. Johnson states her husband | died September 5, 1929, leaving her the proceeds of a $5,000 policy. She alleges that business af- fairs of her family, up to the time of her husband's death, were entirely in his hands, and that he has had little or no business experience.” Langer’s statement was issued to the Associated Press through John Nystul. state campaign manager for the Nonpartisan League, and termed the si a “political frame-up.” It said he had “nothing to fear in a mat- ter in which I have sought only to do my duty to a client.” What Langer Says ‘The staement reads: : “The civil action brought against me is very obviously a political instru- ment, well timed and aimed to have adverse effect in this campaign. The people of the state will easily be able to understand the purpose of this last minute piece of political propaganda. “This instance proves so well that the opposition, so fearful of the ex- cellent indorsement given our ticket in June, has been driven to panic ir manufacturing something, regardless of how wild, to defeat the ticket. “As to the merits of the complaint in this case, i+ is a sorrowful indict- ment of the opposition’s attempt to find some real issues. I have nothing to fear in a matter in which I have souzht only to do my duty to a client. “This political frame-up clearly proves the opposition’s bankruptcy of issues which has driven them to concoct this piece of maliciousness to discredit me. “This incident should be a warning to the people of the state that our op- ponents, interests, fearful of our stand for honest government, will stop at nothing to defeat us. I am confident that the voters will not be led astray by such last-minute politi- cal trickery.” TO ASK GRAIN SUBSIDY Regina, Sask., Nov. 2.—(?)—Request for a federal subsidy on grain produc- tion in the west will be made to the federal government by delegates at- tending the eighth annual meeting of the Saskatchewan wheat pool.

Senator Says} President Paraded Witches Before Picked Crowd Washington, Nov. 2.—(#)—H. C. Hansbrough, former North Dakota Republican senator, Tuesday said \President Hoover “called up all the hob-goblins and witches and mystics ;and paraded them .before the fright: ened gaze of his hand-picked audi ence,” in his address at New York. | Hansbrough’s views were given in; a statement released by the National: Progressive League. The league also made public a statement saying five: contributors to the Republican cam- | paign fund had foreign addresses and asking “who are these persons?” The five named were: Hallam Tuck, | Brussels, $10,000; A. K. Macomber} and Mrs. A. K. Macomber, Paris, $5,000 each; M. K. Shaler, Brussels, $5,000; Mrs. Jat..es J. Carrigan, Lon- don, $2,000. These five, the league statement said, contributed funds “for the elec-; tion of Herbert Hoover, erstwhile | resident of London,” adding that the report of the Democratic national committee “contains the names of no foreign residents as contributing to} the Roosevelt fund.” | In Hansbrough’s statement, the; former senator asked: “What has the present administration to conceal that has caused its unusual exhibition of frenzy during the last two weeks; of the campaign?” “The Republican party has suf-, fered defeat before,” he continued, | “but never in any contests have its; leaders ever given: such evidence of; alarm. Is there a skeleton in the| closet that maz be brought to light ;When there is an official house-/ | cleaning?” | Burnstine Bridge | Team Assumes Lead MKENNE ae hand and that he has no desire to Play the hand at a no trump con- tract. This is an important point to bear in mind when employing these two bids, . % The most abused bid at contract bridge today is the forcing two bid.| The majority of experts who today use and advocate the forcing two bid in connection with the one over one; system find only rare opportunities to employ this forcing original bid. An original suit bid of two shows &@ power-house hand with no more than three losing cards, and a hand that can go down and become the dummy. It not only demands that partner: keep the bidding open, but places an obligation upon both partners to keep the bidding open until the final de- claration is a game-going contract, hee though partner's hand is trick- less. An exaggerated example is as fol- lows: Holding less than a trick, the proper response is two no trump. The orig- inal bidder then bids three diamonds. The bidding must be kept open,' therefore if neither suit can be sup- ported, the proper response is three no trump. If the original bidder then goes to four clubs, partner is now required to support one of the three suits or to bid four no trump. Of course, the naming of three suits is very rare, but the example is given to show that the bidding must. continue until the final ‘declaration is a game-going contract. An original suit bid of two is made/ on a hand containing five or six high | card tricks, but even this number of! Jamestown, cld quick tricks is not sufficient if more han three of the smaller cards are losers. ee There are indeed few hands in a year’s time that meet the strong re- quirements of this bid, and when in doubt as to whether the hand meets these requirements, it is my advice either to open the hand with two no trump, if it will meet those require- ments; or one no trump, which shows {a very strong hand; or one of a suit,! as partner will keep the bidding open with as little as a trick in one hand with at least a bid of one no trump. An original game demand suit bid of two requires partner to make a bid even though his hand is trickless and places an obligation on both hii and the original bidder to keep th bidding open until the final contrac is at least a game-going declaration. There are two types of responses— one is known as a positive response and one as a negative response. The negative response is two no trump and is made with a trickless hand. The positive response is either a suit bid or a bid of three no trump. To make this positive response, part- | ner is required to hold either an ace or one and one-half high card tricks.

STILL REMINDER OF FAMOUS LOVE SONG ‘When You and I Were Young, Maggie’ Was Written in Singular Structure Ducktown, Tenn., Nov. 2—(?)—The creaking old mill where Maggie lived when she was young has been stilled a long time, but travelers who wan- der to the hill looking for a site made famous by a love song can find it| easily now. There is a marker that tells all about it—the mill, Maggie, the miller, and the man who married Maggie and wrote a tender piece about her. | The poem later became a song,! “When You and I Were Young,! Maggie,” and it made Maggie just about as well known as Adeline, whose “fair face beams” in another; popular number. The Daughters of the American Revolution have marked the place where George W. Johnson met, wooed and married Maggie Harris. The old mill still stands. Tennessee historians say Johnson was a rambler, a hunter of gold, who heard strange tales from Indians about wealth in the mountains of eastern Tennessee. That was early in the 18th century. Johnson loaded his canoe and took off from his home -|near the mouth of the Hiwassee river. He followed the river and reached Spring creek, then paddled up it. Finally the water became so shallow | he abandoned his cano? and walked. | Far up the creek, he heard a mill creaking. It had been there many years, even then. The miller ground meal for Indians and pioneers. John- son strode toward the mill and then saw Maggie. She was young then. Johnson forgot about the gold and stuck around until he won Maggie's hand. He took her to his home down the river. They returned together to the old mill when both were aged and gray. Johnson was a mite feeble and the scene of his romance touched him. So he wrote a little piece about when he and Maggie were young. She still was fair to him, he wrote. Historians say his poem was dis- covered later by J. A. Butterfield, who set it to music. 12 GERMANS INJURED Hamburg, Germany, Nov. 2.—(®)— Twelve persons were wounded in a pistol battle early Wednesday between THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 2 ,1932 JIOREAKING OLD MILL Casey Will Serve as Chairman of Meeting T.
