Contract Bridge

BY W. E. M’KENNEY Serrelary American Bridge League I WISH I could impress on my readers a remark often made by P. Hal Sims: “Contract bridge is not a game of petty advantages.” As the declarer, your, first obligation is to make your contract. As an opponent, don’t just win the trick because it is thrown at you—try to reason out if there is any possible chance of defeating the hand. What is the difference, whether the declarer makes five or six odd, when he is in a four contract, if you have a chance of setting the contract? The odds are greatly in your favor. The following freak hand, illustrating this idea, came up in a recent rubber game. South’s jump to four spades is rather optimistic, but he has 100 honors, a long suit, and can not be

criticised too severely, especially since he is not vulnerable. West’s opening lead was the king of diamonds, upon which South’s nine dropped, East playing the three. West knew that there were only four outstanding diamonds. If his partner held two he would have played the high one and then a low one. u u tt /''NF course, it might be that South held all three of the three missing diamonds, but it was hardly probable, especially since he was in a game contract. Therefore, West now must shift to the singleton club. East's ten forces the declarer’s ace. Declarer lays down the ace and king of spades and on the second spade, East’s ten drops. The declarer now plays the king of hearts. Before playing to this trick, West should do a little thinking. If the king of hearts is a singleton and West wins with the ace, the declarer might be able to get two valuable discards on the queen and jack in dummy. If it is not a singleton, West need not worry, as the ace still will be good on the next round. Therefore, he must refuse to ■win the first heart trick. Now all the declarer can do is to lead the deuce of spades, winning in dummy with the nine. He can return the queen of hearts and discard a club. West can win thus trick with the ace and play the queen of diamonds. South has to ruff, but at the end must lose two club tricks, which defeats his contract. (Copyright. 1934, by NEA Service. Inc.)

TARZAN THE INVINCIBLE

Horrified, Wayne Colt stood staring at the altar and skull, but presently he controlled his emotions. He thought of his companion Romero, the light-hearted soldier of fortune, and wondered what had been his fate.

Darkness fell, and still there came no sign of his captors. He wondered if they intended leaving him there without food or water, or if, perchance, the ceremony that was to see him offered upon that grim brown-stained altar was scheduled to commence soon.

He had lain down upon the hard cement-like surface of the cell floor, when his attention wras attracted by a sound coming from the courtyard where the altar stood. Someone was approaching, and rising quietly he went to the window and looked out.

In the darkness he saw something moving. Whether man or beast he could not distinguish. And then, suddenly, there pealed out upon th® silent night that long drawn, awful scream, which twice had frightened away invaders of the mysterious city of Opar.
