Radio Bridge Game No. 18

THE eighteenth of this season’s radio bridge game went on the air from station WFBM Tuesday with Mrs. Annie Adair Foster of Atlanta, Ga„ as Wilbur C. Whitehead’s partner, and Major Lewis W. Colfelt, Philadelphia, paired with Milton C. Work. White, as dealer in the South, picked up 100 aces in this hand: spades, A 8,5, 4,3; hearts, TANARUS, Q. 8,3; diamonds, A, QjlO; clubs, A. Whitehead might be said to have had an option between bidding one spade and one no trump; but with four aces, and with the second best of his five spades only an 8-spot, the no trump certainly seemed more promising, both for a big score and for making game. Whitehead bid the r.e trump, not because of the big honor score, as the expert player does not sacrifice a better chance for making game merely for a higher honoj count. He was influenced by the fact that his type cf hand, combined with the average Dummy, will produce a game in no trump much more often than it will gam% in spades; also the difference in honor score might be as great as 130 or 140, since adversaries might hold 30 or 40 honors in the spade suit. Work, in the West, held; Spades, 9,7, 6,2; hearts, K, J,; diamonds, 5,4, 2; clubs, K, J, 8, 6. Mrs. Foster, North had: Spades, K, 10; hearts, 9, 6,5, 4,2; diamonds, K, J, 7,3; clubs, 10, 9; Major Colfelt, East, held: Spades, Q, J; hearts, 10, 7; diamonds, 9,8, 6; clubs, Q, 7,5, 4,3, 2. All passed the dealer’s bid; therefore Whitehead became declarer with his contract one no trump. tt WORK, West, led the 6 of clubs, fourth best of his stronger four-card suit, and from Mrs. Foster’s hand, which became Dummy, Whitehead, Declarer, played the 9 of clubs. Major Colfelt, East, here made a play which indicated the high caliber of his game. He assumed that the 6 of clubs was his partner’s fourth best of the suit, a conventional lead. The 6 was also his partner’s lowest club, since Major Colfelt himself held every club lower than the 6. Consequently, Work’s club suit, if the 6 were the fourth-best, was of exactly four cards. With two club in Dummy, and six in Major Colfelt’s hand, it was apparent to

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

! Major Colfelt that Declarer could hold only one. This probably was either the ace or king, since with a worthless singleton Declarer would have avoided a no trump bid. If not the ace or king, then Declarer’s singleton was either the jack or 8 spot, the only other clubs higher than the 6 for which Major Colfelt could not account. Major Colfelt knew, by applying the Rule of Eleven to Work’s lead of the 6, that there were outstanding, in the three hands other than the leader’s, five cards higher than the 6 led. Os these, only four were in Dummy’s and Major Colfelt’s hands. The fifth, therefore, had to be in Declarer’s. Regardless, however, of what Declarer’s singleton might be, whether ace, king, jack or 8-spot, Major Colfelt realized that he should not play hs queen. Should he do so, Work’s four-card club suit would block Major Colfelt’s six-card suit; and the latter, without a re-entry in his hand, would be unable to make his two long clubs. Therefore, Major Colfelt played his 5 of clubs on his partner’s 6. Whitehead, Declarer, played his lone ace. Work, West, could readily read it as being a singleton, and therefore was able to read Major Colfelt as having held six clubs originally. tt tt tt WHITEHEAD, though unable from the play to read the exact club situation, realized that the entire suit was set up against him, seriously threatening game. He could, however, count, in addition to his club trick, four sure tricks in diamonds, two in spades and one in hearts. . . . eight altogether, one short of game. Apparently the game trick could be made only by a successful finesse against the king of hearts. Therefore, Whitehead planned first to make practically sure of his contract, and thereafter to take the heart finesse in a try for game. Accordingly Whitehead led the ace of diamonds, to which Work played the 2, Dummy the 3, and Major Colfelt the 6. Whitehead’s queen of diamonds brought the 4 from Work, the 7 from Dummy, and the 8-spot from Major Colfelt. Declarer then led the 10, overtaking with Dummy’s jack. Work played the 5 and Major Colfelt the 9. Dummy led the thirteenth diamond,

the king. Major Colfelt discarded the 7 of hearts; Whitehead the 3 of spades; Work the 2 of spades. At this point Whitehead could have taken his king and ace of spades, thus assuring his contract, one no trump. The ace of hearts would have made it two-odd, and a successful finesse of the queen of hearts would have produced game. Failure of the heart finesse at this point would give the adversaries a heart trick, plus all their clubs. a a tt AS to the club situation, Whitehead could tell, by application of the rule of eleven to the 6 of clubs originally led, that Major Colfelt must hold two clubs higher than the 6; and since he did not play either of them to tire first trick, but instead underplayed his partner’s 6, it was evident that he was long in clubs. Otherwise Major Colfelt would have played one of his high clubs to force out the one club higher than the 6 which he could read as being in Whitehead’s hand. Having thus read Major Colfelt as long in clubs, Whitehead reasoned that there was no possibility of either adversary holding as many as seven clubs. Consequently., five tricks would be the maximum the adversaries could make. Thus, even if his heart finesse failed, Whitehead could still make his contract; and should the finesse succeed, he woould have game. Therefore, while still holding control of the spade suit, Whitehead proceeded to take the heart finesse, leading the 2 of hearts from Dummy. Major Colfelt played the 10; Declarer his queen, and Work, West, won with the king. Work then led in succession, the king, jack, and 8-spot of clubs. Major Colfelt, East, covered the 8-spot with his queen and then took his two long clubs. * On these five club tricks Whitehead, Declarer, discarded down to the ace of spades and the ace of hearts, with which cards he won’ the last two tricks, giving him a score of 10 points for the odd trick and 100 for four aces in one hand. u tt THE bidding of this hand at contact would impose some little responsibility upon the South player. With every suit stopped and a count of 20 (4 for each of his aces and 2 for each of his queens) he would be well over the 17-with-four-suits-stopped requirement for a bid of two no trumps, but he would be

one short of the requisite 21 for three no trumps. Even if he held an extra jack, giving him the 21 count, he properly would hesitate about bidding three no trumps because of the singleton even though it is an ace. Two no j trumps would seem to be his sound declaration* Over South’s two no trumps, North with a count of 7, of course, would jump to three no trumps. The play being the same as in auction bridge, the declarer would fail to make his game by a margin of two tricks. RETURN STOCK CASH Investors in “Blue Sky” Scheme Get Back $2,508.

I“WONDERFUL, THAT IS WHAT I SAY ’! OF NEW KONJOLA” Happy Lady, Free of Complication, Pays Grateful Tribute to Peerless Compound. If all medicines have failed to benefit you; if you have suffered for years; do not give up hope or cheer l but take encouragement from the countless indorsements of this new medicine, Konjola, from men and •> j? ■' t L ... .. J MKS JAMES M. CROUCH —Photo bv National Studio. women who have found their first and only relief in this peerless remedy. With its 32 pain-banishing, body-cleansing, health-giving elements, Konjola works at the very fount, the root of the disease and removes the cause. Konjola does not aim to give mere temporary relief—it is not that kind of medicine, but the new and glorious health it brings comes to stay. It is results that count and Konjola can be counted on for results. How this medicine performs its seeming miracles is being explained daily by ■ the Konjola Man, who is at the Hook Dependable Drug Store, Illinois and Washington streets, Indianapolis. Here he is welcoming all sufferers who seek the new road to health. He will make you no promises because he docs not have to, as Konjola stands on a bedrock foundation of achievements anff triumphs. Take, for instance, Konjola’s amazing victory in the case of Mrs. James M. Crouch, 4350 Parle avenue, Indianapolis, who recently called on the Konjola Man and said : “Wonderful, that it what I say of this new medicine, Konjola. It l certainly proved itself in my case and I arti happy to indorse it to all who suffer. Previously to taking Konjola, I was in a very rundown condition, suffering from nervousness, dreadful headaches, stomach liver troubles. My appetite failed Qe completely—it was only by forcing myself that I could eat a meal. Pains affected my entire right side, coming, I was told, from my liver. Daily I lost vitality, feeling not at all like doing my housework. I had that “don’t care what happens” feeling and seemed to be getting worse every day. “Indeed, I was in a pitiable condition; I lost faith in medicines and was resigned to suffering always. Consequently I did not pay much attention to the things that were being said about Konjola. I failed to see how this medicine could benefit me. But when my case reached really serious proportions, I knew something had to be done and decided upon Konjola as a last chance for betterment. That was the wisest decision I could have made and my only regret is that I didn’t take it a great deal sooner. Konjola went right to work; in a short time my stomach and liver had resumed their normal functioning. Headaches and nervousness vanished. My body is free of pains and anew feeling of vitality has taken the place of that tired and worn-out sensation. Konjola worked wonders for me and I indorse it as the master medicine.” Success—the same old story— Konjola conquers when all else has failed. Is it not logical to believe that what it has done for Mrs. Crouch, it will do for everyone—and for you? The Konjola Man is at Hook’s Dependable Drug Store, Illinois and Washington streets, this city, where he is meeting the public daily, introducing and explaining the merits of this master medicine.—Advertisement. 3 RAG RUGS E Popular Hit and on Miss Patterns ZjC Each ECONOMY RUG CO. 2X3 East Washington Street Circulating Heaters Largest Variety In City | Out ot the high rent district.
