Solution to Previous Contract Problem

I recently had the pleasure of meeting Coach Jim Crowley of Fordham University, whose team delivered a lot of thrilling foot ball this year.
 Naturally, I wanted to talk foot ball, but Crowley wanted to talk bridge. He remarked, T suppose you get most of your bridge hands from your fan mail" But 1t is surprising how few hands submit ted to me from readers can be used.
 In the first place, most of them are freak types of hands and, sec- ond, I believe my readers are more interested in tournament hands that are selected from actual play each day.
 However, did receive two un- usual squeeze play hands from Malcolm G. Thompson of St Al- bans, L. I. These are two appro- priate football hands, as the tact and maneuvering required to pro- duce the extra needed trick re- minds me of the fact and ffnesse used by the boys on the gridiron, when that yard is needed for g touchdown.
