Sheinwold On Bridge Reserved Seats Saved For Those Who Signal By Alfred Sheinwold In the original version of the Divine Comedy, Dante wrote that a special region of Hell is reserved for bridge players who signal with the setting trick. Then somebody pointed out that bridge would not be invented for close to seven hundred years, and Dante scratched it out. Somebody’s always spoiling a good poem. North dealer Neither side vulnerable

West craftily led the six of diamonds, hoping to fool me if the king of diamonds showed up in dummy. It didn’t, and I ruffed the diamond return. It was very obvious that 'West had the ace of hearts, partly because East was addicted to very light three-bids and partly because West had thought long and lovingly before passing. I was sure he had considered a penalty double but had decided against it. I expected to win my seven trumps, my ace of clubs, and dummy’s king of hearts. The tenth trick had to come from the hearts, and this trick would develop only if the hearts divided 3-3 (very unlikely in view of the bidding) or if West could be persuaded to discard a heart. DRAWS TRUMPS I drew three rounds of trumps, discarding a heart from dummy. East discarded two diamonds without feeling

any pain. Then, just for luck, I led out a fourth trump. This was too much for West. To show his partner that it wasn’t necessary to worry about hearts. West discarded the ten of hearts. This was just what I had been waiting for. I led a heart to the king and returned a heart. West could get only tw r o heart tricks, together with a long lecture from his partner. Incidentally, always lead out as many trumps as you can afford in such situations. You never can tell when an opponent will decide to make a silly signal.

He called DeGaulle’s proposal for neutralization of Viet Nam “ridiculous and dangerous” and described France’s recognition of Red China as “undermining our policies.” On the other hand, the envoy lauded France for “cooperating fully” in a broad range of economic areas and especially in the area of assistance for less developed countries. France, he pointed out is actually contributing as large a percentage of its gross national product as any other country. In dealing both with the Cold War and DeGaulle, Burgess called for patience and “waiting for the breaks." while in the meantime continuing our support and encouragement of economic recovery in the west.
