CONTRACT
A BRIDGE a
WRITTEN fOR CENTRAL PRESS
By E. V. SHEPARD
DON'T BE SURPRISED

AS IF BIDDING were an exact
science, instead of an embryonic
topic, many players express Sur
prise at results obtained or OBJ
tainable with certain holdings in
one or both partners hands. There
follow several samples of comments
just received. A prominent tourna-
ment director cannot understand
two deals in contest just ended.
One hand could have been spread
for 5-odd at spades, while another
fairly screamed small slam in clubs,
yet neither deal was bid up to
game at any table. Really the bid
ding was correct. In both cases
trumps broke and every single and
double finesse went right, results
far exceeded average expectations.
A Walla Walla student expresses
amazement that a deal apparently
good for a slam resulted in de-
clarer going down 6 tricks. Had
the declarer pulled three rounds
of trumps, before taking losing
finesse, he would have fulfilled his
small slam contract. Failure to
first pull trumps permitted a
cross-ruff to sweep off six tricks
before declarer fairly started.
The hand shown below was dealt
at Forest Hills. South is good for a
grand slam at spades against any
opening lead. Only a single table
went as far as 5-Spades.

THE AAA

The biggest news of the day continu-
es TO be the AAA decision. Usually, news
paper men say with regard to current
events, IF it is more than "a hours old.
II isn't news Certainly in this case,
they are wrong. Business men, farmers,
housewives watching food prices. market
investors neutrality-suspicious. and most
everyone else is wondering either secret
ly or openly: What is going to happen
to take the place of the AAA?" 1t is a
fact, that when the buying power of the
farmer is altered, business conditions
are altered. The minute the farmers pur-
chasing ability is increased, business
climbs rapidly: the moment that buying
power is decreased, business starts down.

ton should think of this huge class
whose spending money acts as a river
turning on the mill wheels of commerce
and industry.

HOT SPRINGS, Ark. = Young
people of the Southern Methodist
church, South, have been holding a
general conference in Memphis
over in Tennessee, across the Missis-
sippi river from Arkansas. Those
who attended the conferences in
past generations surely must be
startled over some of the state
ments.
For here we have the Rev. DR..
Edwin Mcneil Poteat, Jr., pastor of
Pullen Memorial Baptist church, of
Raleigh, NJ c., an outstanding cler-
gyman, attacking the profit system,
asserting that profits are based on
competition and that cooperative
system, in line with Christianity,
should be established, abolishing
profits.

MANY FEATURES MUST
REMAIN


The Juror kicked up by the farm
organizations speaks for itself. 1t is
evident that certainly many phases of
the AAA will be maintained by one
means or another. Here and there one
hears: Certainly the farmers would
kick about the elimination of AAA. The
farmers were the only ones who benefit
ted from it, Passing over the consider
able discussion which is opened on this
subject, it is we'll to point out that if
the soldiers bonus can kick up as much
fuss as it does from the number of
people whom it directly affects, it is
easy to imagine what might result from
a class numbering many times more fam
lilies. One would hardly hazard the state
ment that reversion to full dependence
upon tariff walls will never come again,
but it certainly looks that way.

PURCHASE OF STATE WARRANTS
PUTS STATE ON PAROLE

Tuesday, when bankers got together
and purchased almost two million dol
lars worth of state warrants, they help
ed the state of California over a tough
spot. The assistance however, is only
temporary. The serious difficulty has
not been bridged, and won't be until
some means is found to bring expendi-
lures of state divisions down to the
level of state income or vice versa The
public is eagerly awaiting an announce
ment from Governor Merriam declaring
what he expects to do in order to solve
this problem of state finances. The other
day, in personal conversation, state Sen
ator Ed Fletcher of San Diego said he
did not expect Governor Merriam to call
a special session of the legislature. He
did not, however, make it clear just how
the governor expected to get out of the
tax predicament. All eyes are focused
on Sacramento.

NEW DIRK, Jan. 8.-Older New
Workers are wondering about the
fate of the venerable Murray Hill
hotel, now that its proprietor, Ben
Bates has passed over He was last
of the sole owners who gave his
inn the Mine Host flavor in the
manner of Simeon Ford.
The Murray Hill never tried
to catch step with the jazz tenn
pc. The coral pink OF its facade,
the colonial entrance porch ben
isoned by blue carriage lamps, be-
spoke its dignity. Until few years
ago its patrons were carried up
and down by pull rope elevators.
The clientele included several
presidents, and many representa-
tiveS of the aristocratic wealth
of its perfumed purlieu. Recently
almost a million was spent in re-
furnishing, but great care was
taken to preserve its Victorian
air and studied simplicity.
It's owner has received enor-
nous offers in the days when the
Grand Central zone was skyrock-
eting-offers in the millions. But he
refused all. For many years an
illness confined him to one of
the apartments. Out of this grew
sentimental attachment out
weighing material gains.
Daniel Frohman dedicates his
recent excellent biography to Fam
ME Hurst. Since her early strug-
Wing days in the metropolis, Miss
Hurst and the dean of the theatre
have been warm friends. At her
frequent dinners and lunchecns,
the beloved octogenarian is always
present and is often her escort at
first nights. Mr.. Frohman rarely

His home is over the Lyceum thea

The inquiry is how North and
South may nationally arrive at a
3-No Trumps call, which will yield
them game and rubber. No possible
method of bidding will permit a
final call of 3-No Trumps on the
above cards. Instead of being sur
prised at occasional odd results, be
surprised that holdings are bid as
well as they average to be. Just
think of the almost unlimited
things which may happen.
A single player may hold any
one of 635 billions of different
hands. With the single players
hand fixed, his partner may hold
any one of eight billions of diff
ferent hands. After the two part
ners' hands are known, there may
be any one of ten millions of diff
ferent adverse holdings.
