Winning Plays : _ Often Indicated
By OSWALD JACOBY A PITTSBURGH reader writes
_ as follows: “Both sides needed!

cards. “He discarded one ot the queens. My hand consisted of four aces, three sevens, three fives and a black three, and my next draw was a joker. “I promptly melded my joker with the four aces, At his turn
joker to my aces, melded the deuce and two jacks and dis-

away, we would have set them back on the hand. Didn’t he make a bad play when he failed to make the canasta for me?”
Missed Cue I REGRET to have to state that my correspondent was the one at fault in the hand described above. He had a simple method of telling his, partner to make
“one of his wild cards with the two jacks. All he had to do was i meld one of his small sets of three at the same time he melded the aces. Then, if his partner was on his toes, he would have said to himself, “My partner didn't have to meld those three little cards. “Four aces and a joker count 130, which is more than enough count. He is showing me that he is playing for out. Therefore, it - 48 ‘my duty to help him and the way to help him is to make the canasta.” Partner Wrong HENCE THE canasta would have been made and the hand ended immediately. Of course, I make some charge
_ against the partner. When the ace!
meld was made, his correct play was to add the joker, discard his remaining queen and leave the deuce and the two jacks as pen_alty cards for one more round.
Your gee there is no requirement room that penalty cards must be meid- :
