Schedules of play, and the tro- phies to be. awarded, are as fol- lows:
 Mixed teams of four, for the Shepherd G. Barclay trophy; were played Monday and Tuesday, Au- gust 6 and 2.
 Mems pairs, for the Derrick J. Wernher trophy; were played Mon- day, Tuesday and Wednesday, August $, 2 and 8.
 Women's pairs, for the Wilbur c. Whitehead trophy; were played Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, August 6, and 8.
 Challenge teams of four, for the City of Asbury Park trophy; to be played at six sessions, beginning Wednesday, August 8, and continu- ing through Monday, August 13. Rules of match play will govern this event, with losing teams being progressively eliminated after the first two sessions.
 National masters pair, for the Waldemar von Zedtwitz gold cup; to be played Thursday, Friday and Saturday, August g, 10 and Il. This event is expected to provide some of the most brilliant bridge of the tournament, since it is open only to players who have already won major championships.
 In addition, an open pair session for the presidents trophy will be played in twu sessions, Friday and Saturday, August 10 and II.
 One of the most important questions to come up at the tourna- ment will be disposal of the ques- tion of ard-showing bids, which has caused a good deal of dis agreement between contract play CTS of the United States and those of England.
 In the United States, most sys- tems recognize the card-showing bid-the bid which is inserted in the course of the contracting to show possession of some specific card, usually an ace. In England the famous Portland Club, arbiter of bridge for the United Kingdom, refuses to recognize such bids, holding that they are unethical. This disagreement nearly caused d recent international tournament to break up in row. The whole matter will be threshed out at the Asbury Park tournament, and it is expected that some new ruling will be adopted.
 Tournament management and scoring will. be in the hands of Russell J. Baldwin, tournament di- rector of the American Bridge League, assisted by Walter J. Rob. erts of Cleveland and E. M. God dard of Asbury Park. Lester Bach ner of Deal, N. J. is chairman of the tournament committee.
