Contract Bridge

BY W. E. M'KENNEY Secretary American Bride* League THE good player never gives up trying to make an extra trick or two simply because his contract Is game. An interesting player to watch is O. S. Emrich of Cleveland, recognized as one of the best card players in the middle west. His bidding is bold and daring, and he often arrives at some rather optimistic contracts —but his skillful play wins him many hands, and his theory is that even though you do not bid for a slam, always play for the maximum number of tricks. To get careless at rubber play will ruin your duplicate game. • Today's hand is unusually interesting because it employs the interesting Bienna coup play. However, the lxand can be held to five-odd if West wei'e to open a club or a diamond, but with the singleton heart opening, Emrich in the South made six odd.

In my opinion, West should have opened his partner's suit. However, he elected to open his singleton heart, since he felt that, so long as he had control of the spade suit, he could get his partner in on the next round with a club, then get a ruff and, in that way possibly defeat the contract. THE first trick was won by Mr. Emrich in the South with the ten of hearts. He now played a small spade, won in dummy with the king, and returned a spade. East, on the two spades, dropped the seven and three of clubs. The second spade trick was won by West w'ith the ace. He returned the ten of clubs, East played the queen, and Mr. Emrich won the trick with the ace. He now r led the queen of spades and then the ten of spades, picking up West's outstanding trump. A small club W'as discarded from dummy. East, in the meantime, echoed in diamonds, showing the king. A diamond was led to dummy’s ace, deliberately establishing East's king. The small heart was returned and w r on by the declarer with the king. He then laid down the eight and seven of spades, discarding the seven of diamonds and eight of clubs from dummy, leaving the ace, jack, and six of hearts. East w r as forced to make two discards. He could let go a club, but now was down to the queen and eight of hearts, the king of diamonds. and the king of clubs. If he dropped the king of clubs or the king of diamonds, that would establish a card in Mr. Emrich's hand. And, of course, if he dropped the eight of hearts, the three hearts in dummy would be good, and six hearts are made. (Copyright, 1934. by NEA Service. Inc.)

THE INDIANAPOLIS TISIES

As Wayne Colt moved restlessly upon his hard couch, Firg, a leser priest of Opar, snored upon his pallet of straw in the small dark recess that was his bed chamber. Firg was the keeper of keys, because it was well known that he would die in defense of them.

Firg's cell was in a corridor that was now in dense shadow’, since the moon, touching it early in the night, had now passed on; so that a figure creeping stealthily toward the entrance to Firg's chamber would have been noticeable only to one w’ho hapepned to be near.

—By Edgar Rice Burroughs

The figure moved without hesitation, until it came to Firg's cell. There it paused, then entered quickly. Straight to the side of the sleeping man it moved, and it knelt, searching with one hand lightly over his body, while the other grasped a long, sharp knife.
