BARCLAY ON BRIDGE
BY Shepard Barclay
"The Authority Authorities"
'erhe Authority on Authorities"

There are plenty of good play
ers who would keep the bidding
open with 1-No Trump On East's
hand, but none Of them did it in
this game. Several Of the Souths
reopened the bidding, however,
and profited by it. They doubled
when the 1-Spade reached them.
1t was almost amazing that none
of the Norths answered with either
1-No Trump or 2-Hearts. They all
bid 2-Clubs.
Several of the 2-Club bids were
passed, the contracts being made
with the loss Of two tricks in
spades, one in hearts and two in
clubs. In two cases West over
called the 2-Clubs with a rebid at
2-Spades, which got passed. In
each case this was set one. So all
of the Souths who doubled earned
plus scores for their pairs, either
through making their own sides
contract or through getting the
enemy just too high.

MAKE THEM EARN IT

MANY GOOD duplicate players
have an almost lnalterable rule
never to let their opponents play a
contract Of one in. a suit or No
Trump. OF course, if this is over
done, and your opponents get wise
to it, SO that they can depend on
you to reopen the bidding with
hands that are too weak, they can
profit by Turing you into some nice
penalties. especially when you are
vulnerable. But as a generality it
is sound tactics to give them a
push at least to the level of two,
taking something Of q chance on
finding enough strength in your
partners hand if taey letve you

who did not tolerate mediocrity.
Folks were either for him or against
him, and in either event they went
the whole way.
The New Deal or third term for
Roosevelt is likely to be a live issue
in the next national pre-convention
campaign and political wiseacres are
not lacking who will say that even
after the convention has made the
nomination the same division OF sem
timents will prevail.
Of the half dozen or more avOW-
ed, but all unannounced, candidates
for governor there isn't one who is
violently pro or anti New Deal. That
is a situation leading easily to OBJ
livion for all of them in the event
of a real fight over Roosevelt. Some
man whose name has not yet been
mentioned might enter the fray as
either a pro or an anti and capture
popular interest sufficiently to assure
his nomination.
Majority sentiment around Ra-
leigh at this time, however, is that
the governors race may be a rather
tame affair with too many candi-
dates representing virtually the same
political group. With the only choice
one between rather negative per-
sonalities the citizenry will look to
the more colorful national campaign
for the fireworks which they have
come to love SO dearly in primary
campaigns. ~~

 The two-hour show has been very capably arranged by Harry x, Cashin, chairman of the Elks' com- mittee, and Edward Fitzpatrick, manager of the theater. From the minute the kiddies enter the lobby there will be some form of enter tainment for them. Even Santa Claus will be on hand to greet each personally as will Mickey Mouse who once again will do justice to his assignment as master Of ceres monies.
 This undertaking Saturday will be 0 benefit affair. The only price of admission asked from the young sters will be canned goods, food- stuffs, vegetables and the like.

 On the economic front the war settles down to this very Signih- cant phase. dermany's overseas and external supplies are already pretty nearly shut of. England and France have succeeded in that objective. It now becomes Germany's struggle to shut of the supplies of England and France and she undertakes to do this with weapons hopelessly in- adequate for the purpose.

 The account of English vessels sunk may seem mpressive-some 86 vessels. But since England has 2600 merchant ships of 2,000 tons and over 1t will be seen how slight IS the effective loss. There has been Q loss in supplies, but Germany has sustained from captures of her own vessels even greater supply losses.

 Germany now turns to the mag netic mines, which are mines sup. piled with c detonating device set of by c magnetic needle. The iron hull Of c ship passing over the mine causes the magnetic needs to turn toward the ship thus setting off the mine.
 But these are good only in shall low water. And already England has discovered that wood vessels passing over the mines can do so harmleSsly while iron tows carried aft explode the mines without damage.

Denmark is almost wholly depen- dent upon Germany, the Baltic countries dependent upon Russia and Germany--in fact, Russia has now practically absorbed Estonia and Latvia. Finland is making a strong stand against Russia and may continue to surprise the whole world. Russia has such extensive man power that 1t will probably overwhelm the smaller countries by sheer weight of members.
