a OPEN FIGHT AGAINST $900,000 TRANSFER Wells Farmers Would Prevent Switching of Hail Funds to Retirement Fund Action was begun in Burleigh county district court here Saturday in an effort to prevent the transfer of $500,000 from the state hail in- surance fund to the real estate bond retirement fund, as provided for in @ law enacted by the recent legisla- ture. Petitions requesting a temporary injunction to restrain the state treas- urer and auditor from making the transfer were filed and State Treas- urer Alfred 8S. Dale and State Audi- tor Berta E. Baker have been ordered to show cause why the restraining order should not be issued. A hearing on the matter has been set by Judge Fred Jansonius for, April 6. Notices were served on Au- ditor Baker and Deputy Treasurer O. Leonard Orvedahl Saturday after- noon by Sheriff J. L. Kelley. State Senator W. E. Matthael, ‘Wells county, is representing the pe- titioners, who are O. J. Brye, John Holven, Sophie Anderson, Peter J. Egeland, Julius Rosendahl and K. C. Kopseng, Wells county farmers. ‘The petitioners claim the law is un- constitutional and allege money paid to the hail fund cannot be used for ‘ny other purposes. The complaint states the constitution provides each law imposing a tax must state dis- tinetly the object of that tax and that it shall be applied only to such object.

Hal Sims, who has won any other player in the world. As @ matter of record, there are few na- tional cups which do not have the name of Mr. Sims engraved upon them. While visiting at the home of Mr. Sims recently, the writer received from him the following unusually in- teresting hand.

What would be your opening bid? ‘We see at once that there is a sure | cold grand slam at spades. I know! many players will answer, “Well, I would bid two diamonds and try to get doubled at seven spades.” However, Mr. Sims had a definite bid for this hand when it was dealt to him at a duplicate game at Deal recently. He is the creator of the| original three forcing bid used in the | one-over-one system of contract. Let me explain this bid to you. An original three bid is a forcing | | { i i i 1 i | ing two bid. However, in the original | three bids, you definitely state that; you have one solid suit, that you need no trump support from partner, that | you do not have over two or three; losing cards, and that all you are in- terested in is whether partner holds certain high cards—that is, aces or kings. When you open with a three bid your partner, if he holds an ace, must respond with that suit. If he holds; two aces, he must respond first with the ace of trump and then, !f the original bidder replies with no trump, he should next show his second ace. For example, supposing you were to; open with a bid of three hearts and | partner held the ace of spades and the ace of diamonds. His proper re sponse would be three spades—even though it were a singleton ace of spades. Now if the original bidder bid three no trump then the partner must re- spond with four diamonds, regardless of the diamond strength as long as! he holds an ace. * * % dealt, Mr. Sims was not interested in simply playing the hand for a grand slam at He saw an oppor- tunity to plgy the hand at no trump if his partner held the ace of dia- monds, so his original bid was three spades. : ‘This forced partner to respond with j any suit in which he holds an ace.!
