Canarias Aggressive Play Best In Contest

Tournament Scoring Favors Chance Taker By OSWALD JACOBY “WE HAVE had many friendly arguments,” cisco reader, “about the best way to play in a canasta tournament. “Some say that you must play - defensively to prevent your op-| ponents from running up a big score. Some say that you play | your regular game, just as though! 4t wasn’t a tournament, “Others say that you must play aggressively, in the hope of piling ~ Up a big score. What is right.” | Perhaps I'd better start by ex-| plaining how tournaments are| usually conducted. Then my answer will be clearer,

Scoring IN A tournament, you play Against a different pair of oppo-| nents every half hour, When you finish at each table, both pairs must agree on the score. . The lower score is subtracted from the higher score. The difference 1s carried forward as a plus store by the winning pair and as a minus score by the los- ' ing pair. For example, suppose the Smiths score 3200 points while _ the Browns score 4800 points. | The difference is 1600 points. The Browns are given credit for plus 1600, The Smiths have a score of minus 1600, It's important to notice that the ‘Smiths don't get any credit at all for their 3200 points. A high score doesn’t mean a thing If your. opponents have even a high-

AT THE end of the tournament (usually about five half- - hour rounds), you add up all the

one round. There's no rule about this, of course, but those are the probabilities.

"Kutmer s Vacation Clothes. Do Double Duty

Thus, a single dress comes out Into the sun in the afternoon and appears again at dinner as an entiiyly., different costume. ” ol IN THE Saha of designer David Crystal, a simple white pique dress tells two stories, The dress has a modified V neckline and large hip pockets, For daytime wear, this de gives it a shrug sweater. in bright red (right) and. matching x belt |

enough for contract bridge. Take the one about always returning partner's lead, for example. Mr. Muzzy is one who prides himself on never deviating! from this practice. Actually it 1s USUALLY thell best bet, but to say “always” is Hike saying “always finesse toward City Hall’ or “on the third deal of the second rubber on Tuesday

evenings, always lead a diamond.”

Wooden Return WHEN YOU, as 4 defender, win the. first trick, do not blindly return your partner's suit, take a good look at the dummy. Run over the bidding in your mind. Try to figure out if there is anyl. play you can make at this point which will clarify the later defense for your partner,”

A simple case of how this last

hould any in the attempt to get more points than the opponents. You can well afford to take somewhat bigger risks than you would in an ordinary game. In a tournament, it's a case of all or nothing. ' During the last two rounds,’ you must let your score dictate your tactics. You act to protect a big

score. Nurse it along nat & big loss. Play somewhat consery--atively.

Take Chances . IF YOU have only a mediocre score, you go all out during the Jast two rounds, It will do you no good to add a measley hundred. points or so. Yor must get a couple of thou sand to have any chance. . If you have a really poor score, just relax during the last two rounds. You aren't going to win, 80 you might as well have a good] time. However, don't play so foolishly that you let your opponents run up big scores, That may let those opponents walk! away with the tournament ust| because you weren't playing se-| Fiously. |

ie After the "deck is dealt, a red trey is the turn-up card. It freezes the pile, and another card is turned up. When somebody | eventually takes the pile, what hecomes of the red three? Is it counted as 100 points, or {is it dead and used always as a discard? A=A red three never "hecomes dead or discardable. In the situ-| ation described, the player who takes the pile must put the red| three down on the table. It! counts 100 ‘points in his side's fa-] vor. In this case, the player does . not draw to replace the red three. |

F. - September and October are ood months to transplant peonies. Best way to use an old plant for a “start” is to take it all up, wash soll off} roots (just so you can see what you're doing), then cut the roots so that two or three growing eyes are left on each division.

Teen Problems—

AN OLD ry a goes like this: “If you can’t get a girl in the summertime you can't geta girl at all.” Yes, summer spells romance; no doubt about it. And it's a wonderful feeling. The sight of a certain person makes your heart careen like crazy. Never have you felt so gay, so glamorous. Talk and laughter bubble: an hour passes like a minute. All's well in a swell world: you're in love,

Puppy Love Is Only Trial Run

For most others, “puppy love” is just a trial run for the later loves of their lives: How you handie your first summer affair is a serious matter. Don't fall too hard for a vacation wolf or a seaside siren. Don’t try to hang on to a love that’s due to peter out on Labor Day. Don’t go overboard on violent displays of affection. Eager talk, friendly laughter: even foolish private jokes stimulate understanding. Too much wooing is hypnotizing.

WHY as back-breaking a job as scrubbing a floor should be considered exclusively a woman's job is beyond me. Yet - many a man who wouldn’t hear of his wife's taking on a job outside the home, doesn’t mind in the least seeing her put in a longer and much harder work day at home at the kind of work the janitor does at his office. And he thinks it would be beneath his dignity to offer a hand occasionally with some of the harder, grubbier jobss
