By WM. E. McKENNEY America's card Authority YOU play the McPherran NO Trump, you must announce the convention to your opponents and explain that the original bid of one no trump is made not vulnerable on a no trump distribution with possibly two to two and a quarter tricks; vulnerable, as little AS two and A quarter tricks and up; or it may be made psychic bid on a hand of freak distribution, with little or no honor strength but a six- or sevencard suit. As some of the responses are artificial, they should be explained as they are made.

will give you the first response today. If your partner bids one no trump, your response of two clubs is artificial and should be made on A hand such as the following: A AQ72 A 10 53 104 10 2 28 You will note that this hand has three quick tricks. The bid of two clubs is forcing for one round less your partner's hand is of the freak Type No. 2 and his suit is clubs, and a weak club suit--not one headed by the ace-king-queen. If his club suit is headed by the aceking-queen, naturally he should bid three clubs over two clubs, to show that the club suit is solid.

Then you can go to three no trump if you wish. If your partner opened the bidding on A freak hand, Type No. 2. and his suit was spades, hearts, or diamonds, he should overcall your forcing twoclub bid with two of his suit. If the original no trump was based on the sub-minimum Type No.

hand, as illustrated in yesterday's Article, his response to two clubs must be three no trump. There are times in duplicate bridge when he might bid two no trump, asking you to pass. but in rubber bridge this no trump bid is not employed. Honor Roll Announced HOT SPRINGS. Jan.

PETAIN ASSUMES NEW POWERS IN VICHY SET -UP Long Expected Cabinet Shakeup Predicted Soon (By The Associated Press) VICHY. France, Jan. Philippe Petain's already vast powers as personal leader of France were bulwarked tonight by a new decree of allegiance which would enable him to prosecute and punish the misdeeds of ministers and other high officials of the last ten years. The retroactive feature of the new constitutional act would empower the chief of state to deal with former Premiers Edouard Daladier, Leon Blum and Paul Reynaud; ex-Ministers Pierre Cot, Georges Mandel and others now facing "war guilt" trials by the supreme court. The old constitution specifically forbade retroactive laws, and in this connection informed circles recalled that the ouster of Pierre Laval as Petain's vice-premier and foreign minister followed business actions which Petain disapproved but which later proved apparently blameless.

Petain since has conferred with Laval and announced their "misunderstandings" as dissipated. Following announcement of. the decree informed circles predicted long expected cabinet changes, including a shift in the ministry of justice, would take place soon. They said Minister of Justice Raphael Alibert would be replaced by Joseph Barthelemy, of the University of Paris Law school. Other changes forecast included: Minister of Labor Rene Belin to be replaced by two men splitting up industrial production under the categories of employer and employe; Jacques Chevalier to be replaced as minister of youth and education.

The new constitutional act will make persons and their property fully responsible for fulfilling their posts for the good of the state. "The regime of irresponsibility over." said an official commentary. "The state appears now as a hierarchy with a chief at the head who commands and must be Men who accept responsibility now stake their liberty, their goods and their lives." The act also will apply, it was announced. "to former, ministers who held office within the past ten years" and "the action taken by the chief of state will not exclude further action through legal channels." If charges against officials are supported by Petain's investigation, it was announced, he may order them to make restitution, deprive them of their political rights and put them under house surveillance, under administrative internment or detention in a "fortified enclosure."
