 This is the first of series of six articles explaining an old play with new name. This series was pre- pared for me by the new eastern tournament director<of the Amer ican Bridge League, Sam Mailman of New York City. He calls 1t the smother play"
 Al Sobel, former eastern direc- tor of the league, recently left for Los Angeles to handle the tourna- ment activities of the league fer the Pacific coast district. These directors are fine mathematicians and while they seldom get an op- portunity to play in the big tour naments, due to the fact that they have to conduct them,- they usual ly can explain the theory of play better than some of the experts.
 When Mailman first took up his various duties, asked him to look out for something ne win bridge, so he prepared the first complete series of articles on this unusually interesting play.
