Contract Bridge
Today’s Contract Problem South has the contract for four hearts. West opens the king of clubs, which holds, and South ruffs the second club. South returns a diamond to the queen in dummy and leads a heart from dummy. West wins and returns a heart, which South wins. South cashes his ace and king of diamonds, shedding two spades, and then leads the deuce of spades. What card Bhould West play and why?

Solution to Previous Contract Problem BY W. E. M’KENNEY Secretary American Bridire Learue T AM afraid that most players do not take enough time to study a hand after the opening lead. The opening lead, you know, conveys a great deal of valuable information. The drop of the first two cards by your opponents often will locate high cards, which information will prove valuable to you as the play of the hand proceeds.

the two spades is a constructive bid —in no way a sign-off. North realizes that South must have five diamonds —otherwise he would be bidding a four-card suit to the king, jack, which is not probable. The jump to four diamonds is forcing and now South confirms the five-card suit by bidding five diamonds. North is right in assuming that it is perhaps less difficult to make seven odd at a suit than at no trump. n n m IT looks as though the declarer must lose a spade trick. However, with the six of clubs opening, a small club is played from dummy and East is forced to play the jack, which South wins with the ace. This marks West with the ten of clubs and probably the queen, and if West has made a fourth best opening, he is marked with the queen, ten, and seven of clubs. Declarer now takes two rounds of diamonds, picking up the outstanding trump. The four heart tricks then are run off, declarer discarding the three of spades. It is immaterial what East discards. West lets go a club. Declarer now runs the diamond suit. West is forced to bear down to the king and nine of spades and the queen and ten of clubs. Dummy has the ace and deuce of spades and the king and eight of clubs. Declarer has the queen and ten of spades, one trump and the nine of clubs. The last diamond is led and West is helpless. He can not unguard the king cf spades, so must let go a club, which allows the king and eight of clubs in dummy to win for the grand slam. (Copyright, 1933. by NEA Service, Inc.)

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
N. Y. SCHOOLS SUFFER LITTLE IN DEPRESSION No Teachers Unpaid, Says Superintendent; Classes Larger. Followtnc la another In a aeries of atoriea on schoola and the depression. By United Press ALBANY, N. Y., Dec. 18.—New York state’s educational system has suffered comparatively little from economic distress. It has fared as well, if not better, than other states officials report. They warned, however, that New York must restore its full measure of financial aid to/localities in order to maintain high educational standards for its 2,500,000 pupils. Funds disbursed by. the state were reduced 10 per cent by the legislature a year ago. Education Commissioner Frank P. Graves pointed out that thus far: 1— No schools have been closed. 2No child has been deprived of the right to attend school. 3No teacher has gone unpaid. 4 Only in “insignificant” instances have any school districts failed to meet their obligations. “For four years public education has been passing through an epoch that has blanched the cheek and shattered the nerves of many a firm friend of education,” Dr. Graves said. “But in New York the financial storm has wrought far less damage than was anticipated and than occurred in practically every other part of the country.” Some teachers, officials said, have been dismissed but, generally, teaching staffs were reduced by failure to replace those who had resigned. Salaries have been lowered voluntarily by an average of 10 per cent. Classes have been enlarged, to meet the needs of the increasing school population, and special services, such as kindergartens, summer and night schools, music, etc., have been abolished in many sections. Retrenchments totaling many millions of dollars have been effected by cities and communities. The 6,000 teachers who, in normal times would have beqn added to school pay rolls ot care for the 158,448 new pupils since 1930, but wait until conditions have improved before they can hope to find jobs. Governor Herbert H. Lehman’s special committee on costs of education has declared that New York must appropriate approximately $116,000.000 —more than half the total sum appropriated a year ago to operate the entire state government —in education aid to care adequately for the mounting school population. This is in addition to an allocation of approximately $25,000,000 in deferred state aid. The legislature appropriated $102,000,000 last winter for current costs.
