LOVES LABOR LOST

IN A GAME among a number
OF teams of four, there are two
ways Of scoring. One of them is to
add up all Of the scores made by
one pair Of a team playing the
North-S South hands of each deal.
and those of its opponents. also
add up all of the scores by the
pair playing the East-West hands,
and those of its opponents, and
then subtract the total points Of
your two pairs from those by your
opponents. to see how many net
points you have. which may be
either plus or minus. The other is
"match-point' scoring. BY this. If
the score of your North South
pair on a deal. combined with that
OF your East-West pair on it. pro-
duces a plus result. you get one
match point for winning the deal;
II the contrary. you lose it and get
no points. and II tied. you get a
half of a point.

Fine Points in Bridge

South was set one at his bid Of
2-No Trumps. whereas in most
cases South played at 3-No
Trumps. was doubled and set two
tricks. Thus the loss of 100 points
for down one not doubled was a
400 point gain as against those
who lost 500 for down two dou-
bled.
Al Table I. West was fortunate
enough to make his 2-Spades dou-
bled. for a score Of 100 for tricks,
500 bonus for game. total $40.
That was 100 better than the
score by the pairs who beat the
doubled 3-No Trumps 500
So the team beat most Of the
field 100 at one table and 400 at
the other. That was not good luck.
however. as it wasted two good
results to gain one match point.
II the team had made one Of the
two pairs fine scores on one hand.
while the mates were making an
average. and the other pairs fine
score on another hand. while its
mates made an average. two
match points could have been
scored by the same amount Of fine
work. It is better TO have two bad
scores together. but your fine
scores opposite ordinary ones.

JAPS POUND MALAY


II the citizen is interested,
certain county courthouse de-
velopments will furnish an
mixing of the size of the
take" hereabouts from the
everywhere-present pinball
machines.
In the language of any line Of
business. an annual license fee
of $1,000 is sizeable.
In fact, to offset such a fee the
machines must garner 1000 OF
the public's nickels.
BY establishing such a IL
cense charge, and limiting the
number of machines per loca-
ton, county commissioners,
in effect, made a monopoly
possible.
And one of our better known
operators, reaching through a
stooge, some weeks ago thought
he had purchased that monopoly
right with a $1,000 certified check.
But there was a falling out. The
stooge rebelled. And. since the Ii
cense was in his name, the OPP
orator was out OF the picture
and out $1,000.
So what? Mr.. Average Citi-
zen may say. Well, the opera
tor, seeing easy countrywide
profits about to elude him,
promptly put up another S5,-
900 for a second license.
Now, II his fee is accepted by
the commissioners. he will need
200, 900 of the publics nickels to
offset the fees.
All of which probably isn't very
important. but 1t gives one an idea
of what a pinball monopoly is
worth to the right people.
