Secretary American Bridge League
THIS is the fourth of series of
Il six articles showing how to
score a double rubber at contract
bridge. Eight hands already have
been scored. The ninth, added to
the sheet today, completes the first
rubber.
Small Slam Bid and Made
East and West bid for a small
slam in diamonds, which was dou-
bled. They made seven diamonds,
but as only six were bid, only six
diamonds doubled are scored in the
trick score. Diamonds count 20
points per trick-doubled 40-there-
fore East and West score 240 points
below the line in their trick score.
This now gives them two games,
and as these two games were Sc
cured before the opposition made
one game, this is a two-game rub
Der and they are entitled to the
two-game bonus, which is TOO points
scored in their honor score.
If their opponents had scored a
game their bonus would have been
only 500
Entitled to Overtrick
They bid for small slam. AL
though they made a grand slam,
they take the small slam bonus
only. AS they were vulnerable, they
scored 75O points in their honor
score for the small slam bonus.
If they had not been vulnerable,
they would receive only 500 points
for small slam bid and made. If
they had bid grand slam, they
would have scored 1900.
They made seven, therefore they
are entitled to one overtrick. The
overtrick bonus is so points when
the contract is not doubled, regard
less of vulnerability, but when the
contract is doubled, each overtrick
counts 100 points when not vulner-
able.
AS their side was vulnerable and
the contract was doubled, they re-
ceive 200 points for the overtrick
in their honor score.
Bonus Is Given
They are entitled to bonus for
successfully making their contract
doubled. This bonus is so points
not vulnerable, and 100 points when
vulnerable, therefore East and West
also score 100 points in their honor
score for making their contract
doubled.
East. who was the declarer, held
all five honors in his hand, there
fore East and West score $50 points
in their honor score.
We will assume that the same
players are going to play another
rubber, as it is customary to play
two rubbers with the same part
ner, therefore we will draw a dou-
BILE line under the 240 to signify
the end of the first rubber.

To All Toilers:
The strike of 5000 workers the largest strike of
agricultural workers since the World War and the first
big struggle of the Colorado beet workers. 1t is heroic
struggle, in the face of great odds.
The Great Western Sugar Co. and other large sugar
interests, who dictate the farmers trying keep
the beet workers in conditions of actual slavery forced
labor starvation wages and every form of persecu-
ton and discrimination.
This year they trying to further reduce starva-
ton wage by cutting it nearly oneha In addition the
beet workers who toll long hours with their whole fami-
les and children to earn even piece of bread are
often paid for work done and forced to trade at
company stores which rob them. The overwhelming
majority of the workers Mecans and are threatened
with Jail and deportation unless they accept whatever
conditions offered by the sugar kings
This strike can be won. The whole crop in the Col
orado fields may be lost if the workers back in
the fields shortly This has great advantages for the
strikers. But also calls forth every form of intmida-
ton and and every starvation scheme of the sugar
interests For weeks before the strike the beet workers
who refused to sign the contracts for wage cut
were denied credit at the stores Hundreds have been
evcted.
The outcome of the strike is in the balance! Vic

Japanese Warned In Soviet
Press of Vigilance of
Red Army

Moscow, May 30.-In connection
with the recently intensified anti
Soviet campaign in imperialist cir
cles, the japanese militarists and
press are conducting the most cp-
en- propaganda in preparation for
armed intervention against the So
Wet Union.
So manifest is the Japanese
drive for war against the Soviet
Union that "Izvestia" and "Prav-
da" are devoting number of art
icles exposing the tendencies of
Ithe Japanese military and their
open attempts to seize the Chin
csc Eastern Railway.
Quoting a number of extracts
from articles by Japanese military
men and journalists, Izvestia par
ticularly dweHs on an article by
Hirota Hiromori which appeared
in the Japanese press under the
caption: "Final Aim Our Actions. I"
The author bases his views on
the prerequisite of the danger of
joint war actions by the United
States and the u. s. s. r. he
pictures the actions of the Japan
csc army in northern Manchuris
and the japanese fleet at Shang-
hal as 3 preliminary action fol
war against the Soviet Union and
the United States. "Izvestia quotes
the following extract from this
meaningful article:
Before when war was pre-
sumed between the U-S.S.R. and
Japan it was impossible to think
that the first stage of the mill
tary operations would be the Oc-
cupation of Tsitsihar or Harbin.
The present situation Is such as
IL this first stage would have
passed already"
