that analysis Of the married lives OF

"Taboos and fears, implanted by re-

life and wife for granted, also cause

More than 500 pictures, varying from the most

this waste matter it has already been proven
that paper and synthetic tannin can be made.
One of the greatest potential markets for
corn waste products is the synthetic rosin and
solvents industries, which already consume
100000 pounds of furfural annually. This
product furfural was first produced in 1918 as
q laboratory curiosity at a cost Of $50 per
pound. With the adoption of commercial pro-
duction methods, however, this cost has dropped
to 1Tk cents per pound.
It is expected that as the departments chem
lists continue their experimental work new and
even more profitable by-product uses win be
found for the present waste in stalks and huSks.

This causes some inferior players to be careless
with such hands, thinking it makes no differ

help the partner to use his cards to the best

DsYcHoLooY versus mathematics is an
old combat in expert bridge circles.
Some of the greatest players think
that giving partner accurate infor-
nation at ali times is the most pro-
CaIctive policy. Others favor taking chance
Of misleading the partner in order to hoodwink
the opponents at every opportunity. Most Of
the top-rank performers can be placed def
nitely in one of these classes or the other.
Some are nearly always in line with the eternal
probabilities Of the game, telling their partners
the truth on all but the Iarest occasions, which
places them in the nearly always" rather than
the always" group.
Seldom has there been a more grotesque pair
In these respects than w. Cleveland Cogswell
and Norman j. Bonney, partners for years on
Tie Boston Chess Club team and recent winners
of the Eastern contract pair championship.
Cogsweu is an attorney noted for his ability to
play upon thu emotions of q judge or jury

expert accountant and statistician. In bridge
one of the pair is q great Sticker for faithful
ness to the mathematics of the game the other

matician ana the accountant is the bridge

NetC 0tEEGtGOH Method.
A new method of counting the value OF high
cards if played at your own bid has been devised
by Julian Rice, one of the most energetic of
the rising generation of bridge analysts and
students He counts ace-king queen as B.
king queens as 2, ace-king- jack or ace
queen-jack as 2l2. All other combinations
of two or more honors he rates the same
as the defensive, or quick trick value. except
those containing the ten and two other honors,
to which he adds a quarter more than the quick
trick value because of the ten. Combinations
of just two honors, or single honors, are ap-
praised at their quick trick worth.
In the hand of a player whose partner has
bid he counts supporting values Of the high
cards in trumps as ! for ace king or queens
. half fer jack, and an extra quarter IL any
two of them held in side suits the same
value as in the original hand except that he
adds q quarter if two honors are held In the

NORTH

Followers of three entirely different kinds Of
systems would all make the same original bid Of
Two spades in the North, after passes by South
- and West. It would be two spades. But the
I'D would mean three different things. with
forcing bidders it would commit the entire side
30 keep on bidding until q game had been
contracted for at the best At Of the side,
showing q hand strong enough for that COM
mitment. With semi-forcing bidders 1t would
not guarantee that much strength except op-
posite q partner with enough to make
voluntary response with about one probable
trick for an assist or two for takeout. With
straightaway bidders 1t would merely reveal
minimum of six probable offensive tricks, in
cluding at least three high-card ones.
Forcers would respond with three no trlmps
TO show high-card trick and a half original
bidders four hearts closing it. Semi-forcers
would show the same strength with voluntary
cali Of just two no trumps. as also would
straightaway bidders, the original caller then
going to three hearts and the partner to four.
The likelihood of the second suit being fairly
short would indicate the possibility Of declarer
essaying cross-ruff. Consequently, since East
has no positive lead combination of ace-king,
king queen or queen-jack and no short suit to
ruff with his own trumps, his best lead is prob
ably trump to limit the declarers rufus.
BY taking two trump tricks, next two spades,
sEufang a third spade, cashing third trump
and then playing the clubs the fourth club Of
North establishes, so that only one diamond
and one spade are lost, declarer getting an extra
trick above his game contract.
II West opened the bidding with natural
