WHAT WINS POINTS
AT ROYAL AUCTION?
Attempts to Arrive at the
Comparative Value Of Play
and Bidding.
MISTAKES AS A FACTOR

Some recent attempts TO arrive at the
comparative value Of bidding n play
at auction have led to the discovery that
any opinion based on an examination OF
the results at duplicate must be incon-
elusive owing to the Interference Of the
scores in the honor column. especially
the 125 added for a game o which
gives one trick an entirely artificial
value.
There also remains the eternal ques-
ton, Was II the good play or sound bid
ding Of one side or the errors Of the
opponents that made the difference In
the finai scores? In q duplicate game
OF nine tables. playing t~wenty-seven
deals, there were only six In which the
hand was played on the same declara.
ton. comparing the record kept by . n
and 8 pair sitting still and an e and w
pair going round the room. II was two
hearts at one table, three clubs at am
other; no trump at one table. four
spades at another and 40 On.
One Of the most confusing things In
trying to estimate the value OF good
bidding as compared with good play II
the effect that stop~ing just short Of
game or going game has on the total
score. In some cases a good player will
get the game by superior skill. In Others
he gets II only through some error OF
his opponents. Take this hand. upon
which only one pair goes game:

as lie won VS. six with the singleton
queen.
But the opening Is not all Of II. b
must play the hand well to take advan-
tage of his opportunity. n beginner
would probably rush of to get out the
,rumps and then try to establish the dia-
monds. but b leads only one round OF
trumps. putting dummy in with the ace.
Then he leads the ace Of hearts and dis
cards a losing club. The rest Ia easy,
as two more rounds Of trumps clear up
everything.
This gives b 3s+125-1S.148 on the
hand. At other tables all they make Is
? points because they cannot possibly win
he game, and there are IL points to be
deducted from their 81.
When Y starts with no trump, as ne

CRUELTY TO CHICKENS AND

COMMISSIONER HARTIGAN Of
the city Bureau Of Weights and
Measures has been fighting for
fourteen months to get the Federal
Government to investigate the inter-
state poultry trade. Most Of the
chickens eaten In New York come
from the middle West and about half,
those for the kosher trade. are brought
in alive. They are transported in spe-
cially prepared poultry cars with tiers
Of crates. 1000 chickens to a car.
These chickens arc sold by the
pound. When the farmer turns them
v to the shipper he wants the maxi
mum weight Of course. Sometimes he
will give them a mixture Of grain and
water that makes a paste which sticks
in the crop for twenty-four hours and
adds a false six or seven ounces to
their weight.
The shipper sends a man with each
car. He in turn has his instructions
to starve the birds two days before they
reach their destination and then to
give them plenty Of the paste" The
commission merchant is forced to en-
ploy the same methods. Result. when
the chicken eventually reaches the
consumer 1t has ruined it's digestion
and perhaps Is in a condition to ruin
the digestion Of whoever makes . meal
Of It.
Mr.. Hartigan wants the Government
to have inspectors board all New York
bound trains carrying poultry at
Philadelphia OF Albany and examine
each fowl TO prevent this practice.

Hi:

Here Is the bidding at one table.
z starts with no tr,Brp and A says
-four hearts. He figures on losing two
clubs and a spade. even II his partner
has not a trick in his hand. These two
suffers are very strong. When 1t got
round to z ne bid four spades. This

partner that he has one sure trick. and
that it Is in the opponents suit. ls 10
double four spades. A did not leave
his double in. OF course. but went to
Ave hearts. Y did not like TO bid Ave
spades. as he had too many losing hearts.
but z doubled.
The beginners attention Ia called to
the manner In which A made his con-
tract against rs tremendous hand. Y
led q spade and dummy put IN the
ace. A overlook the ten OF hearts with
the Jack and led Ave rounds Of trumps,
leavins himself with only two small
ones.
What 10 z to dlscardf
Long before y had to discard at al
z had let go one Of each suit. When
discarded tho eight Of diamonds or
the Nth round OF trumps z let go 4

him another club trick. Those two
clubs are all Y and z can make.
Five hearts doubled. with nine honors

72+60+l25-S27 points. But now look
at how easy it Is to play this hand
