Y, Sept. 15.—Michael De Mare, of Syracuse, can “take it." as thousands of boxing fans, who know him as "Kid Coogan." can testify, but blows delivered from a baseball bat, in the hands of his wife Pauline, were more than the absorption powers of the "Kid" could stand. He took the "count" after he failed effectively to dodge three lusty wallops of "Mrs. Coogan’s" bludgeon. When he came to. he had his wife, who has been separated from him for three years, arrested. Pauline promptly fainted when she was found guilty in city court and the judge deJerred sentence until a later date.

selected from the final session of the national masters contract pair championship event at the recent tournament of the American Bridge League at Asbury Park. Henry P. Jaeger of Cleveland. 0.. past president of the organization, received top score on the board as he arrived at the p/oper declaration and then his opponents, unfortunately for them, doubled. By conserving his entries and finding a home for a losing card Jaeger was able to make his contract. South bid one club, West doubled, North passed, and East bid one spade. Jaeger in the South bid three clubs, West bid three spades, and North passed, as did East. Jaeger went to five clubs, which West doubled. The only lead that will defeat the contract is the club opening. However, the natural opening would be spade or a diamond. B tt tt WHEN the ace of spades was opened. East dropped the nine, encouraging his partner to continue. West continued with another spade, East played the king, and now Jaeger was careful not to trump with his deuce of clubs—he must ruff with at least the five spot. His next play was the king of hearts, which West with the ace. Jaeger already had lost a spade and a heart; he still had a losing diamond and his only chance to make his contract was to establish a. heart in dummy on which to discard his losingg diamond. The jack of diamonds was played by West, and Jaeger won it with the He then played his eight of clubs, and when West played the jack, the trick was won in dummy with the king. A small heart was led and trumped by the declarer with the nine of clubs. Jaeger’s next play was the deuce of clubs, winning in dummy with the four. Another heart was led and the declarer trumped with the ten of clubs. West’s queen dropped on this trick, and now all that Jaeger had to do was to lead the six of clubs, win in dummy with the seven and discard his losing diamond on dummy's good jack of hearts. His contract of five clubs doubled was thus made. • Copyright. 1933. bv NEA Service. Inc.)
