but isn't this "A purely American playf
Answer-Yes. but IL has been adopted
by the English players and incorporated
into their rules.
administration long ago was 1t started
Answer-About ten years ago by Nicho-
las II. Trist, of New Orleans. He incor.
porated three rules into the game, and for
a time these innovations created "A storm of
criticism throughout England. The Lon
don Field had olumn on column of dis
eusston, but when Cayendish, the English
authority, put the stamp Of his approval
upon Mr.. Trist's new plays they became
part Of the game.
Enthusiast-Tell me what Mr.. Trist's
innovations were.
Answer-They were very simple. First
when you open a strong suit with a low
card lead your fourth best. by following
this method" says Cavendish. YOU show
your partner, as regards Il strong suit
which yOrropen with a low card, that Won
invariably hold exactly three cards higher
than the one first led, and not in~frequentIy
what those cards are" Second, when you
open II strong suit with a high
card, and next lead a low card.
lead your original fourth best. This
simply follows out the idea contained
in the first rule. But the third rule is a
little harder to grasp although really very
simple. Here it is; When you remain with
two high Indifferent cards lead the higher
If you opened a suit OF four; the lower II
you opened u suit of five or more. This is
purely an information play. For instance.
you hold originally ace, king, queen. six
and four. You lead the king, and on the
second round your ace and queen are in
different cards; that is, for the purpose of
taking a trick they are equally good. Now
in this case you will lead the queen on the
second round, but if you held only four
(say the ace, king, queen and six then you
Will lead the ace on the second round.
Enthusiastic think understand that.
For instance. If my partner leads II high
card first and then another high card, l
IAN, as a rule, tell how many he held origi-
nally; because If he has three left after the
first round he leads the highest, and If he
has four or more left he leads the next
highest; that is, pru,iding they are indiffer-
ent cards.
Answer-You have it. And these three
simple rules are the most important
changes that have been made in whist for
years. Ton MASON.
