.RE|TH RESIGNS
. BR|DGEPOST

NEW YORK, Dec. % QN.S0.
A significant change in contract
bridge alignment in this country
was recorded today with the res
ignation of George Reith from
the advisory council of Bridge
Headquarters, sponsors Of the So
called official" system of bid
ding.
The resignation is a direct re-
suit of the Lenz-Culbertson bridge
tournament. ....
It was the outcome of bat
tie launched a few days ago
when F. Dudley Courtenay, presi-
dent of Bridge Headquarters, de-
nounced the Len z-CulbertSon
match as a publicity stunt"
and denied Culbertson's claim to
originating the one-over-one sys-
tenn of bidding.
Courtenay identified Reith as
the real originator of the zone
Overcome" Yesterday Courtenay
announced that Bridge Headquar-
tiers was planning to issue a
brochure explaining how the one
Overcome could be adapted to the
official system.
In a lengthy statement Reith
declared it was impossible to
adapt the one-over-one to the Of
ficial method and charged Bridge
Headquarters was defeating its
own purposes by complicating a
comparatively simple, effective
method by the inclusion of a
bidding device requiring a great
deal of skill and used successfully
only by tournament players.

JACOBY'S PLAY
STOPS RIVALS

NEW YORK, Dec. % UN.S0
To Oswald Jacoby, late of the
-four horsemen" of bridge and
now the partner of Sidney L.enz
in his battle against Ely Culbert-
son, went full credit today for
stemming the latter's tide of vic
tory at it's flood.
In one of the most bitterly
fought sessions of the entire
tournament, Jacoby virtually
singlehanded waded into Ely Cul-
bertson and Theodore Lightner
and after nine rubberS of exciting
play emerged with a net gain for
the evening of AIS points.
This left the Culbertsop team
still 10,705 points to the good, but
the Lenz-Jacoby gain, small as it
is, was significant in the extreme
It was the first time in a solid
week of play that the Culbertson
team had failed to increase its ad-
vantage. Secondly, the Lenz
Jacoby "break" came at the turn
ing point in the match.
Last nights session saw com
pletion of the first half of the
150-rubber tournament. Tonight
players, kibitzers, experts and re-
porters will move en- masSe to an
other hotel, where Lenz will act
as host for the remainder of the
tournament.
