634 Local Anglers Open Trout Season
Streams in Vicinity of Waterbury Given Big Play To.
 day-High Waters, indictment Weather Handicap

Despite the high streams and the none too comfortable weather. many Waterbury fishermen left the city before dawn today to try their luck in the streams as the Con- necticut trout season officially opened. In all, 634 local anglers were eligible to cast their lines in the trout streams today according to records of the town clerks office.
 Of this total Al anglers held just plain fishing licenses for the 1895 season. A total of 1SO had held combination angling and hunting permits and 13 aliens held fishing licenses.
 Throughout the state, and espe- cit in the vicinity of Waterbury. streams freshly stocked by the state board of fisheries and game were reported to be lined by an over- whelming number of anticipant anglers.
 There were many local fisher men, however, who stayed home and kept their casting equipment locked up awaiting the arrival oi warmer weather and the abating of the swollen streams. They pre-. dicted that the catches today. on the opening of the Connecticut trout season. would be small. A week without rain and warmer weather, they said, would make angling next week much more in- teresting.

CONTRACT BRIDGE
 By VIM. E. MCKINNEY Secretary of the American Bridge League
Provide for Worst If You Plan for All Outstanding Trump in One Hand, You May Be Able to
 Fnesse Through It.

When you are playing a contract, do you first take into consideration what might happen if all the out standing trumps were in one hand. and do you provide for that kind of a break?, Well, you should.
 Do not just play by some set rule. Study the hands from all rule. Study the hands from all angles and you will get more fun out of the game.
 You may not analyze them all correctly, but supposing you do not, you at least will know where you have failed in your anfalyza- tion. 5- D.
 Here's a hand that was played recently in a rubbr- game at the Algonquin Club, one of New York's swankiest bridge clubs.
 The Play
 Against six spades, West opened the queen of clubs which was won with dummy's singleton king. Now you can zee that the hand Is off the ace of diamomis.
 You might reason that the king of diamonds can be discarded on the long heart, but then what would you do with the two losing clubs? West has bid clubs and with you and your partner hold ing the ace and king, he probably has a six-card suit.
 Therefore you are not going to be able to ruff the clubs until you pick up all the trump. The careless player would cay he would just take a couple rounds
