Mr. Muzzy's Fuzzy Lead Pays Off in Long Run

R. MUZZY is not one to pay too much attention tor orthodox opening leads. Leading from ace-king-gqueen, most players would open the king. Mr, Muzzy does this too. . Usually. Occasionally, and for no particular reason, he will open the queen from that combination, Most times, this works to his d i sadvantage. Today, however, it brought a strange and very satisfying result. Mr. Champion ‘got into a logical slam bid at spades which he could have made” easily if he had been able to see all the cards. But the opening lead led him into the wrong line of play. Mr. Muzzy opened the queen of hearts. ” ” Ed MR. CHAMPION promptly placed the ace and king of hearts on his right. He planned a loser-on-loser play which involved throwing Mr. Dale in the lead at the crucial moment and forcing him to lead into the ace-queen of diamonds or to return a heart which woud give Mr. Champion a sluff and ruff, With this idea in mind, he

ruffed the first trick, then took i \ especially when he noted that

two rounds of trumps, ending on the board. Another heart was ruffed in the closed hand. Next came the three top clubs and the folrth club was ruffed in dummy. Mr. Dale had discarded a heart on the second round of trumps. He discarded two more .on-the last two leads of clubs, i,

HERS, Neer-

From Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, comes this sand and gravel truck loader, suggested by Try-Itéér Gary White As Winner of the Week he sends in this idea which can be used out-of-doors in the sand box or indoors with marbles, corn, or beans, for they are not hard to clean up. This is a good project for a class room, on the beach, or for Father to help with. ; The diagram shows a loader made from a shoe box ‘which serves as a base. Cut a wide dgor in both ends, (and cut 2 one-inch round holes in the top, as shown. Paste 2 long 1 inch cardboard strips alongside the holes. These lare guides for the 2 card slides with tabs which open and |close the sand and gravel holes. . When the slides are in place and slide freely, tape 2 \milk cartons over the holes to serve as storage bins. remove the top and bottom from each. Now, drive your truck inside, pull the tabs, and load up!
