Solution to Previous Ploblem BY W. C. M’ KENNEY

American Bridge League Secretary This is the last of a series of six articles dealing with the principles of the “INT” Bridge System, which has been popularized in New England by Edgar F. Tierney of Westfield, Mass.

HE five preceding articles have dealt only with situations in which the opposing players have not entered the bidding, and thus for the exchange of partnership information has been uninterrupted.

However, opponents often are not so kind. The situation is met by providing that, if there is an intervening bid, a pass conveys the same meaning as a two club bid (the bust response). Any other bid, either a raise of the no trump or the bid of another suit, means exactly the same as though the opponents had kept silent. ]

Today's hand is an interesting example of how this situation ‘is handled. Had North held a weak hand, he would have passed West's two club bid. But he held 1% honor tricks, and thus he made a bid, as he would have done in any case. Two spades showed at least one honor trick, with 3% to four play-

ing tricks. The subsequent bids | ©

speak for themselves. To make the contract required careful play.

West's bid placed him with most of the strength, and South, after drawing trumps and ruffing a club, eliminated spades from the West hand. Then he led a heart from dummy and finessed the ten, forcing West to lead a heart and give South a trick with his kind, or to play & club, which would permit a discard in one hand and a ruff in the other.

Woman, with her unmathematical mind, that once only had to figure how to get a husband, has given herself a new .copybook with a set of problems that never before have been solved. She knew the answers to the 1836 mode. Her mother told her. But this is 1936! Present day leaders are telling young women that if they knew the trouble that Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton; Lucy Stone and Alice Paul had wished upon them they would condemn instead of revere the givers of emancipation and suffrage.

Women Do the Picking. Up

Women in brief, no longer know where they belong. When they first looked away from their household tasks, they visualized themselves in stellar roles, not as cogs in the organized routine which is theirs all too often. They never have been whole-heartedly accepted in business and the professions. Their jobs—with rare exceptions— are those of picking up after men, whether in a home or an office. They do the typing and filing and the straightening of desks in the same spirit that they mend socks
