In contract bridge, every bid and every failure to bid has an effect on the alert player which continues be- yond the stage of the auction and over into the play period. The bids made by the defending side before the final contract was determined often will guide declarer to the leads and prove an important factor in play of the hand.
 The choice, for example. be- tween an involved squeeze and a simple iinesse, may quite safely be based on what opponents have said or failed to say in the auc- ton period. It was Vests double and subsequent play that declarer used as a safe chart to the correct play of today's hand.

Feminist From West Says

Judge Georgia Bullock, Of the Su.

lieves that women have 'lost
ground" in the last few years, says
the New York Sun.

But unlike the militant feminists,
she does not insist 'rights" can be
won or retained by combative tao
tics.
Time to Cooperative.
"Women in the past have won
some concessions-suffrage for ex-
ample-by warfare" states the
Judge. "But the time for contention
is gone. Now our only hope for sur
vival in public life is to cooperate
with the men and to work toward
proving our merits and establishing
ourselves, not as trouble-makers, but
as real contributors to public wei.

that in the last few years women

we can retrieve our former position
is to prove we have unique ability
and can work with, not against, men
Her own successful career in the
legal profession has taught her that
the odds are not all against women
While she admits countless evidences
of determinations against women
she explains that this is not due ST
much to mans prejudice as to the
attitude of women themselves.
Too Dominant?
Developing this theory, she said
she had noticed how often women
in high positions set out to execute
their ideas, regardless of the opin.

they worked. Such action, she said
