Jay Becker Of Philadelphia, won only
four rubbers from Culbertson and
Albert H. Morehead, but the 10 cents
q point made the winnings large
enough to Offset what they lost in
eight rubbers at cents a point.
Culbertson's Theory Blasted.
And this Notwithstanding the fact
that the only slams bid and made
were by Morehead, two of them in
succession in the same rubber.
Culbertson had theory that his
possession Of the ace Of spades would
mean many spade contracts for his
side. Yet in the largest rubber won
by Sims and Becker, 1,l50 points,
each Of them made five spades on a
contract for four.
Culbertson and Morehead played
more no trump contracts than any,
thing else Sims and Becker were
prone to heart contracts.
Sims amused the society kibitZers
at the Crockford Club by good-na-
turedly calling out Sissy. Mr.. Becker -
to his partner. when Becker stopped
short of game several times. Yet, on
the concluding hand of the session,
Becker. in a three -no-trump contract,
made six. when three could have been
set. Sims kept signing of by bid

NEW YORK, December 6.-P. Hal
Sims took money today away from
Ely Culbertson and proved one of
Culbertson's mathematical contract

Culbertson had the ace Of spades
in every hand of II rubbers, yet lost
SIT. He had to pay his losses at the
rate of 10 cents a point and collected
cents a point for his winnings. Be

three spades to the jack, the rest Of
the hand being worthless. The open
irg lead was club. Winning in
his own hand, Becker successfully
finessed the diamond queen. Then he
led the king of spades. Culbertson
obligingly came up with the ace. and
the jack proved an entry to run the
diamonds, the king dropping on the
lead Of the ace.
Stopping once at two diamonds, Hal
made six, and Culbertson. having dis
carded incorrectly, remarked: Nice

1T was a phoney squeeze. Profess

Then Hal reproached Becker for
