West secured q grand slam
The outstanding feature Of this deal
was the quick thinking on tho part OF
the declarer. Had west taken a long
time to study before pounding away
with his honors In clubs and hearts. he
would have aroused the suspicious Of
his adversaries that some devillsh
plot was afoot. and they would prob
ably have taken in their aces. but
whom the declarer led the ace Of
diamonds and then switched. each op-
ponent was confident that his partner
held the king Of the diamond suit
Having fixed that fact In the minds
Of his adversaries. It was, of course,
evident to north and south that the
declarer was trying to make an add
tional card of reantry in dummy. In
order that he might first establish and
then bring in his remaining diamonds.
When the deciarer played tho king
OF diamonds at trick 7 there was an
audible asp from each opponent.
They then knew that they had been
tricked. but could not help themselves.
1t is not oftan that a player can SO
euro n grand slam when his opponents
hold two aces.

BASEBALL SEASON IS
UNDER WAY IN FRANCE

The French baseball season opens
soon. 1t will be n modest opening
compared with the brass band cere-
monies and great holiday crowds at
tending the seasons debut in the Unit
ed States, but with 1923 France as
sumes second rank among the bass
ball playing nations of the world.
The baseball seed sown by the Amer
lean soldiers in France during and
after the war has grown into a stalwart
tree and It is estimated that nearly
1000 French men and boys will be
chasing the pill and swinging the bat
when the season is in full sway.
League in PAriA
Paris alone has a city leagu. of eight
clubs and the brand OF baseball served
up by the winner of last years PEN
pant-the Ranelash club, dear of
French baseball teams. organized after
the visit to Paris of tho Chicago White
Sox and New York Giants years ago
would compare ~favorably with the
strong amateur teams of the New Eng
land mill towns and might even hold
its WI in the smaller minor leagues.
Turcoing. Roubaix. Lille. and Douai
form a northern league. while the for
mer American army bases OF Bordeaux,
Tours. lie Mans. and st. Nazaire, as the
southern league. have a schedule of
twelve games to decide which team
shall meet tho winner in the northern
league. The team emerging triumphant
from this test then will try conclusions
with the champions of the Paris league.
French Players Fast.
Tho French players are fast base
runner n brilliant felders on ground
balls. although still weak in Judging
line drives. The pitchers have remark.
able whips and have long since dis
carded their roundhouse curves and.
making sharp shoots with fast, straight
balls. keep the batters guessing.
Batting is still the poorest depart
ment Of the F~renchmen's game. They
are still ball shy and a speedy shoot
on the inside of the plate seldom fails
to drive them away. causing pop flies
or clean strikes. The scarcity Of left
hand batters is another feature OF the
French mines. most OF which are COM
posed OF seven or eight right handlers.

west secured nino tricks.
When the dummy was exposed there
were only seven tricks In sight for
the doclarer. who. Notwithstanding,
never questioned his ability to secure
the game.
About the last thing which n real
player would think OF doing would DO
to run off his four tricks in diamonds,
make his black noes and allow his OPP
ponent to secure the rest OF the tricks.
The lead of the heart Mt trick -four
was a coup de rhse." 1t was al So
lutely necessary that the declarer
should lead hearts for the reason that
he was afraid OF hearts being led.
There was no way for either north or
south. and particularly for north. to
know the real situation in the heart
suit. and north was forced to lead
clubs at trick Ave, precisely as tho
declarer had planned.
The declarer was willing to allow
north to win a fow tricks. but did not
wish south TO secure the lead, on ac-
count of the situation In the spade
suit. The finish of the hand was very
pretty. North could have saved tho
game by discarding his ace OF hearts
at trick ten and keeping tho small
heart as n card OF exit, but throughout
the deal north had been so firmly I'm.
pressed with the fact that hearts was
the deolarer's real suit that II seemed
his duty to guard that suit above all

REULBACH HURLS
DOUBLE HEADER,
WINS z. SHUTOUTS

Edward Reulbach. former pitcher
for the Chicago Nationals. is credited
with being the only pitcher in organ-
lied baseball who pitched both CON
tests Of a double header and was able
TO blank the rival team each time.
Reulbach beat Brooklyn twice Sept.
&c, 1908. when the Cubs were making
their great drive for the pennant. At
that time the Chicago pitching staff
was in poor condition and Reulbach
volunteered for the double header.
Accounts OF that game say Reulbach
was better in the second game than
in the first.

These are only a few Of the points

ceive added momentum next year when
