Do you hold poor cards at bridge2 Does your partner fail to defend well against slam and game con- tracts? Does he double at the wrong time? If you have had these | troubles. you will welcome the game of WEM.
 WEM is an individual bridge game. You bid for yourself and play for yourself. If you hold good cards, you can bid for as many tricks as you think you can take. If you hold poor cards, you can bid nullo, for no tricks. WEM is a game you can play efficiently after thoroughly reading the rules once. My first few articles will be devoted to the gen. eral rules of the game.
 PLAYERS: One of the main feat ures of WEM is that 1t can be play ed by any number of players from three to six. Your bid has nothing whatever to do with any other play- CTS bids. You have no partner. If you think you can take three tricks, \ sou bid for three tricks, but you had better make just exactly three | tricks. If you make more than you bid, or less than you bid, you scare nothing.
 In cutting cards for position, the player with the highest card has first choice of seats, second takes the seat at his left. and so on. In case cards of equal rank are cut
 the players recut to determine pre-
 cedence.
 DECK: A deck of 52 cards is
 used, with cards ranking ace (high)
 king, queen, jack, ten down to ths
 two-spot, which is lowest. The suit have no relative rank.

Lncan Makes It 20 Straight
With a Sd Win at Willmar

Lucan - Lucan's softball team
took its twentieth straight game
Sunday, winning over Coffee
Johns champion Willmar team S
to al the Kandiyohi county seat.
Bud Wurscher got double and
lick a triple to score for Lucan in
the first. Rasmussen set the first
nire Willmar boys down, the score
remaining at l to 0 going into the
last half of the fourth.
The first Willmar player up got
to first on an error. A home run
by Ekholm, another error, a base
on balls, another hit and a wild
throw by catcher Grams Melted
four runs for Willmar and for the
first time this season, Lucan found
what it felt like to be on the short
end of a score
But they came back in the fifth
to score two on an error by the
Willmar centerfielder, a base on
balls and singles by Rasmussen,
Jensen and Wurscher. Poor base
running prevented their tieing the
score.
In the last inning E. Wurscher,
first up, fouled out to the catcher
but Rasmussen batted out a single
and Joe Dolan came up with a
mighty blow for a homer.
With the tally at to 4 Rasmus-
sen put on the pressure, tanning
two and promoting pop fly to
lick at third.
