the level to which you are able to
drive them. II one side has the pre-
ponderance Of cards the part score will
not be a factor as they can override
any defensive bidding at reasonable
level If both sides have good part
nership bidding, permitting spirited
competitive bidding. they would bid
against each other anyhow. regardless
OF the part score either side might
have. am not advising you to give
up too easily against low contracts;
I am only urging that you regard a
500 penalty incurred to save a part
score as q disaster, and one Of $50
as an error.
Playing against a part score. you
generally have a second partner to
reinforce your side His name is
Greed. a human weakness which
thrtves on part scores Few players
are really sound and perfectly logical
on this point. Mostly they resent your
attempts to block them from playing
the hand at two-odd when so points
will give them game, and will overbid
and take set at a higher level.
though, If they remained calm, they
would know that they had already bid
their limit at two while you had over
bid your limit one or two or three
tricks. perhaps. in driving them to
three. 1t is remarkable how easy it
generally proves to instigate, by means
OF little opposition bidding. overbids
which the same players would never
consider making If they were not
lured on by their own part score. So
try to profit by this when the op-
ponents have a part score and are
greedy for their game, and restrain
yourself from falling into the same
errors when your side has the score
Never shade your opening bids because
you have part score to your credit
Modify your responses and rebids, but
do not let it affect your opening bids
In fact. lean distinctly toward sound
ness in opening the bidding, for. when
you have a doubtful hand, you need
the cooperation Of your partner Just
as much when you only need 40 points
for game as when you need 100. If
your partner can open despite your
pass, you can rely on the opponents
to defend. and now. If you have leaned
back a bit in passing originally. you
can double them at q low contract,
If they bid into your hand, and often
score far more than the value Of your
game.

Curtiss. a great American flyer.
In his young manhood Curtiss was
a maker of bicycles, and later turned
to the designing Of motor cycles. At
the age of % he took part in a motor
cycle test, and Travelled a mile in
26 2-5 seconds: which meant an aver
age speed of 1856 miles per hour! That
was the fastest a man had Travelled
up to the year the record was made
1906.
The fame of Curtiss. however. rests
upon his work in aviation. In 1908
and 1909 he won prizes for airplane
flights; and in 1910 he set out to win
a prize of $4,000 offered by the New
York World for an airplane trip from
Albany to New York.
Many a pilot wanted to win the
prize, but feared the danger Of fall

or mountains lining the river banks.
Curtiss took great care in preparing

he was handed letter, from the

the mayor New York.
Away he flew, part Of the time soar
ing more than 1000 feet; but at one
point in his journey he had to pass
through a gap in the Storm King
Mountain, and as he was doing so
his plane lurched sideWiSe with drop
Of fully 80 feet A quick shift of the
front control saved him, and he went
onward.
The prize offer allowed two stops.
and he took advantage of them to fill
his gasoline tank; but he finished the
journey to New York City. delivered
the first letter carried by an American
airplane, and won the $4,000 prize.
The flying time was hours and so
minutes, for distance of 142 miles.

into practical form.

There is some advantage in hav-

The Part-Score Angle.

The Part-Score Angle.
T FEEL sure that in general the
players in this country attribute
too much value to a part score
L in rubber play, and that this
tendency is not confined to those
who are inexperienced In tournament
play. The duplicate figures give a
truer valuation of part scores than
do the arbitrary valuations Of 100000
points placed on it by various au-
thorities. In duplicate bonus OF so
points is given for bidding and max
ing score of less than game. Thus.
if you bid three spades or less and
make three odd, you score 80 plus so,
which makes 140 points. Consequent
ly. it would pay your opponents to
take the bid away from you If they
could limit their penalty to 100 points
Should they bid, says four clubs with
this intent, and you double them
and they go down one, they would
beat you by their bid if they were
not vulnerable. since you would score
100 instead Of 140. However. If they
were vulnerable you would beat them
if you doubled GOO against 14O),
whereas you would be beaten on the
hand if you did not double Goo
against 140). One cannot overbid
more than one trick. you see, to save
a part score in duplicate with profit,
and not even that when vulnerable
and likely to be doubled One is
far more likely to be doubled at three
than at two, another defensive bid

that even in rubber play one should
not overbid to a greater extent with
this object, especially when vulnera-
BILE. Often you have to 90 down two
when you could reasonably expect not
to be more than one down, judging
from the bidding. Actually you will
find that to possess a part score is
not very helpful against careful pay
ers who refuse to lay themselves open
to large penalties in order to prevent
you from completing your game re-
quirements. If the next hand is
evenly divided between the two sides
