| The four pieces with the marks on them
are exactly the same size and shape. and
the little piece in the centre is an exact
square. The puzzle Is to cut this cross.
which Is made up Of five pieces. into
four pieces and TO join these four pieces
together again in such q way that they
will form a perfect square but still show
what the shape of the cross was before
it was cut into four pieces. Draw lines
where you think the cuts should be made
in the above diagram. or cut them and
paste them together in their new form.
The training solvers got on bridge
problem No. 4 seems to have made them
very fit for the struggle with No. s, which
Ia solved 10y leading the trump from Z's
hand through As doubly guarded ten
Y wins and leads the seven Of diamonds,
which z wins. Now leads the ace Of
spades. so that Y can get out OF his way
by discarding the ace OF diamonds This
allows z to lead winning diamonds
through AS trumps. After Y catches
them both his two hearts are good for
tricks. Some solvers led the ace first,
bringing about the same situation later

This list may look as il every one had
solved No. s, but such is very far from
being the case. A number have written
to say that they'still cannot see why
and b should not get trick in No. 4.
On the other hand. several who are con-
fident that they can solve anything on
earth In two minutes have ask ed The
sun 70 do It's worst in the way of seven
carder. 30 here goes with one of the best
in that line TO date. Take il EASY. he.
cause perhaps you may think you have
solved IL when you have not.
Clubs are trumps and z il in the lead.
