Contract Bridge
BY w. E. M'KENNEY
Secretary American Bridge League


T BELIEVE that the play of the
Il cards at auction was more diff
cult than it is at contract.
At contract, the bidding helps
you to locate certain high cards.
However, at auction, you quite often
would make an original bid and
every one would pass.
You then would have nothing to
guide you except the drop Of the
cards to aid you in locating the
missing high cards.
Today's hand is from our good
friend, Ralph r. Richards of Cali
fornia, founder and first president
of the American Bridge League, and
rated as one of the country's great
est card players. Mr.. Richards is
always quick to recognize an end
play or a squeeze.
At most tables, the players
reached the small slam contract in
spades and received the queen of
diamonds opening, which was won
with the declarer's ace. Then two
rounds of spades were taken and
the king of diamonds cashed.
Now most players cashed their
ace and king of hearts and led a
small heart, not caring whether
East or West won the trick, as
either one would have to lead to
a club tenace or, if they led a
diamond, it could be ruffed in
dummy and the declarer could dis
card the deuce of clubs.
=
HOWEVER, Mr.. Richards inlme-
l. l. dately recognized that there
was a possible chance of making
seven, so instead Of playing his ace
and king Of hearts, he led the ace
of clubs and then small club, and
there is no distribution of the clubs
whereby he could lose his contract
of six odd.
Even though the club f1nesse
failed, he still would have the jack
of clubs in dummy on which to dis
card his losing heart. However, the
club finesse held, and Mr.. Richards

miles south Of the Santa Rita
and a mile and a half west OF
the producing area, is drilling at
1850 feet, making rapid progress,
after a rather bad showing at
the start. There had been some
hope for a race between the two
reservation wells but 1t was
quickly demonstrated that the
Crumley crew could drill rings
around the rivals to the south.
The Fulton rig is one OF the
finest in the state of Montana. 1t

was started and is powered with
a Waukesha drilling engine.

ANVIL CHORUS IS WAITING

Forewaned by the experience of the citizens of Conrad

Spring BoquetS

This Organization has members in
approximately 43 states. in PHILIPPINE
Islands, British Columbia. Alberta and
Saskatchewan, our list of royalty
buyers totaling about 1000, which
is the result of a decade OF growth
from a nucleus OF five cooperative
buyers. The wide ''coverage" of this
list gives us a plendid contact with
the trend OF thought. we have more
or less personal correspondence with
all these people and we exchange ideas
with them and learn to know them,
in many cases, quite as intimately as
If they we're living in Great Falls.
Many of the bulletins we write are
inspired by the trend OF thought
CLEANED from our members. A con-
stantly recurring question always
leads to the issuance of a bulletin
covering that particular subject. Not
infrequently we send out few copies
Of a bulletin to some members In adj
vance of the general mailing,
so that we can determine whether we
are thinking along right lines. The
response has been most gratifying
not that everyone agrees with us but
in that many write back their impress
sions. a
To illustrate, we quote some Of the
expressions received regarding our re-
cent Information Bulletin No. III
called sEWKaONEOUS THINKING.
These came In reply to our request
for an opinion from a selected few
who received the bulletin before its
formal issuance.
We have room for only short ex-
cerpts. A leading business man Of
Lexington, Mass, wrote:

The picture dio-
srom at right shows you thot
"SoIod Dressings" contain 3o%

they cost less than q qvolify

Would you like to know, Miss
Colbert, how they make these So
called Salad Dressings?
This is how they do it: First they
take little mayonnaise; then they
add water right out of the tap
sometimes as much as 3O% to
4O%. Then they put in cereal
sfllers" and cook the mixture to
make it stick together.
Now do you wonder that salad
dressings" cost B less than a true
mayonnaise like HellmAnn's?
There's no substitute for it
If you Can possibly afford it, buy
Hellmann's Mayonnaise always.
There Is no substitute for its fine
ingredients-the same ingredients
you use in your own kitchen.

chance to win. Then, after their planes
had been built, he said, they learned
that the classification had been changed
to $50 cubic inches. This would have
meant that the planes with smaller
displacement would have had no
chance, Livingstone said. He added
that most Of the pilots facing sus.
pension depend on prize money for .
living.
Prize Money Essential
The races In Chicago. under the au-
spices Of the Chicago Tribune, were
planned for July Ia, before the Ma
konal Aeronautic Association announced
its contests also would be held on the
same days.
Thus, Livingstone explained, the
pilots were faced with the choice Of
competing In race they would have
chance Of winning or In one In which
they would have no chance.
Since we live on prize money" he
said, I'VE went where we could win" !"
