CONTRACT BRIDGE
 By VIM. E. MCKINNEY
 Secretary of the American Bridge League

Gets Two Extra Tricks Player After Studying Cards 15 Minutes, Collects All Rounds, Despite
 Double on Five
The Waterbury Democrat., 1937-05-18

which recently won the National Masters team of four champion ship of the American Bridge League. When the opening lead was made, Won zedtwitz, noted for his deliber- ate style of play, took IS minutes to decide how he would play the hand, but, once decided, he played the cards with machine-like precision. For each play he made there was 8 reason, based on cold analysis.
 He won the opening lead with the spade ace and led the nine of hearts. He went right up with the ace in dummy, dropping East's king. He did not expect this result, but felt certain, because West ha dfailed to double five hearts, that he did not hold that card.
 Next Won Zedtwitz led low diamond to the ace and returned that suit at once, winning the sec ond trick with the king, and ruff- ing the third round of the suit. Now two rounds of trumps were taken, the second being won in dummy with the eight.
 Losing clubs and spades were dis posed of on the established dia- monds.
 The student can gain much from study of Souths play and the accurate conclusions he drew from the bidding of his opponents, which enabled him to make seven, while still reasonably safe on his contract of five.

Bridge writers often are too prone to emphasize the squeezes and end plays by which an appar- ently impossible contract is made, and do not put proper stress on the playing of 8 hand in which neither of these elements is pre- Sented.
 Today's hand is one in which there is no squeeze. Obviously there was no end play. of declarer, dou- bled at five, took all 13 tricks. But the hand is worth studying because it shows how a master player copes with the problems which arise in hand after hand at the bridge table.

~ was not sumcient inducement,
a Washington Redskin officials
today pointed to the prospects OF pro-
fessional footballs three-ring circus
when the two teams take the Griffith
Stadium gridiron at 2 o'clock
But first, they cited the situation OF
the Eastern title race in which the
Skins find themselves in the predica-
ment in which one more defeat would
cost them retention of the champion
ship they won last year.
Because New York, current pace set
ter, got 1913 tie with Brooklyn yes
terday it will not be possible for the
Giants to lose more than three games
OF their regular schedule. They have
only one more to play-with the Red
skins a week from Sunday. The Skins,
meanwhile, already have lost three and
another setback automatically would
give the title to the New Yorkers.
It leaves the Marshallmen with the
necessity Of getting no worse than a
tie and victory against the Packers
and the Giants. 1t matters not against
which the Skins win or tie; their final
standing thus would read seven VIC
tories as against only three defeats.
