Contact Bridge
By E. V. Shepard

False-carding consists of play
ing cards out of normal order,
usually with the intention Of de-
ceiving an opponent. For ex-
ample, if a lead comes from
your left through your OK,
normal play is the cover with
j; false-carding consists of cover
ing with the @, to give the i'm
preston that the missing j is
held by another player. If well
conceive. and timely, false-card-
ing may prove very battling, but
it is senselesS to falSe-card when
nothing is to be gained.
The tendency to false card
often becomes an obseSSion, be-
ing employed on every possible
occasion. Once that habit has
become fixed, a player loses un-
told points, because every
shrewd opponent knows that
straight play means that the
addict cannot falSe-card. Sup
pose that you are the declarer,
with a false-carding fan at your
right. The dummy holds ALTO
and you require two tricks from
that suit to go home. You lead
a low card from your hand and
fineSSe the 10, knowing that the
player who sits back of dummy
will be certain to false-card the
K from K-Q-X.
If the addict holds only the
@ he will win the trick, but you
know that he lacks the K or he
would play it on the first trick.
Knowing that your subsequent
fineSse of the j will certainly
win. obviates the necessity of
attempting some other means
of picking up the extra trick re-
quired for game. The player
who ordinarily follows regula-
ton play, but who sometimes
false-cards always leaves you
in doubt concerning his
holdings.
II the declarer wins the
opening lead at no-trumps with
the Ace, everyone knows that
he also holds the K. It is not
customary to bid no-trumps
with a lone ace in one suit,
nor will a declarer win the first
trick unless he can also win
a later trick.
The @ may be led from
A-Q-J or Q-J-10. If partner
holds either the Ace or K, a
no-trump lead of the @ will
cause partner to everyday with
his Ace or K. Suppose that
the declarer wins with his Ace
over the @ that has been led.
Every player at the table knows
that he must also hold the K.
But if the declarer wins the
first trick with his K, nobody
except the one who made the
lead can tell that the declarer
also has the Ace.
An opening lead Of the j at
No Trumps may come from
A-K-J, Allie, K-J-10, or J-10-9.
Suppose that the declarer holds
The Washington times., 1932-02-23

A-K-Q. If he wins with the
ace, he will at once expose the
whole situation. The same will
be true if he wins with the K.
But, if the @ wins the first
trick, the opening leaders part
ner cannot tell that the open
ing lead may not have come
from A-K-J If a return lead
goes through the declarer's
AK, he must put up his ace.
It will then appear as if the
opening lead of the j came
from K-J-1O. Many a game has
been made by proper play OF
solid honors, because return
leads came where the declarer
was strong, whereas some other
lead through his hand might
have defeated the contract.
If the 10 is led and covered
third hand with the @, nobody
can tell that third hand may
not hold the K, if the declarer
wins with his ace, although
they all know that declarer
holds the missing j.
False-carding with low cards
never produces any effect on
poor players, but often it proves
puzzling to close observers OF
the cards that fall. Having no
partner to deceive, the declarer
may indulge more freely in
clever false-carding than is safe
for the side players to attempt.

Your Health
And Diet
By Logan Clendening, M. D.

Oy A%VSOu NASANSAAAASS @AS A>S
The most indigestible foods
that man conn lonly eats are
nuts. The only things that COM
pare to them are guinea hen
and turkey.
It takes four hours for a meal
of nuts to leave the stomach!'
Guinea hen has the same rec
ord--four hours-but guinea hen
is more completely dissolved in
the intestines and absorbed. Nut
particles of any size are not dis
solved at all in the inteSCineS.
turkey leaves the stomach in
three hours and a half. Seems
strange considering how good it
is and how little trouble it makes
after getting IN the stomach.
Yesterday we gave an &C.
count of the study Of the man
who could turn himself inside
out. He could bring up at will
small amounts Of a meal just
eaten, so the whole process of
digestion of that meal could be
observed. The doctor who used
him for study taught number
OF other people to swallow a
small stomach tube and keep it
in the stomach for several hours
without discomfort. BY this
means a large number of OBJ
servationS were made on all
kinds Of foodstuffs, particularly
as to how long they remained in
the stomach and how much gas
trio juice was called out in the
process Of digestion.
This was considered an index
of digestibility. OF course, the
time it took the stomach to
empty itself had been studied
with the X-ray, but this did not
permit any examination Of the
state of digestion of the food
mass in the stomach.
Here are some Of the things
the doctor found out:
Rare, medium or well done
makes no difference. They are
all equally digestible. Roast beef
leaves the stomach in about
three hours, no matter how well
cooked, and brings out total
acidity II 100.
Pork is less digestible than
beef.
Lamb is the same as beef.
Yellow of eggs is more digeS-
tible than the white. The white
is more digestible cooked than
raw.
Vegetables leave the stomach
in a shorter time than meats
or desserts. Cooked vegetables
are more easily disposed Of than
raw,

Advice to the LoveIorn
BY Beatrice Fairfax

George Bernard Shaw, asked
to give the definition of a
lover, said "a lover is a man
who grossly exaggerateS the
difference between women" -
Mr.. William Gerhardt, an
other of those lecturing English
men who get big fees for say
ing mean things about us, pulls
this one: America is in dan
ger because our women are
idols of their men,"
Italy's premier, Benito Mus
solini, says more marriages
and more babies-keep up the
birth-rate."
Mary Lathrop, eminent law
yer, says: eff I had a daughter,
I would bring her UP to be a
clinging vine"
Power in Hands of Few
Sherwood Anderson, whose
book on the machine age is a
best seller, has this to say:
women have not been sub
merged (by machinery in the
degree man have, and they con-
tinue to be cast more nearly
in natures mold. The machine
has helped toward the concen-
tration of wealth and power,
with the result that great
wealth and almost unlimited
power are in the hands Of the
few"
Cardinal Hayes, Of New York,
declared that American woman
hood is passing through the
most dangerous era in his
tory"
mo woman" writes Sophy
Kerr, distinguished novelist,
really likes being indeper1d-
ent."
Days Are Numbered
DR.. Olga Knopf, psychiatrist
and lecturer, says: "For the
sake of monogamy, men and
