Contract
BY THE FOUR ACES,
Crime Doesn't Poy-No. 155

SpH1e LOeSH FQy-NO. IOO
When a pair loses two tricks on
defense crime" is usually lurking
somewhere in the background.
Sometimes. Of course, an unfortu-
nate opening lead, or a bad guess
about key cards, can lead to this sad
result, but more often one of the
defenders Cor BOTH was guilty of
at least misdemeanor. See if you
can spot the guilty party in this
case.
North dealer.
Both sides vulnerable.

The bidding:
North. East. South. West
Pass Pass a. Pass
Pass Pass
South's opening bid was individu-
alistic, If nothing else, but it
worked out beautifully. One spade
would have been more logical, but
then South wouldn't have reached
the game contract that he later
"stole."
West got off on the right foot by
opening his top diamond. ANY 9TH
er lead would have made 10 tricks a
laydown) East won with the ace,
and declarer false-carded the Jack.
East returned a diamond, hoping
West could ruff, but declarer won
with the king and led the ace and
jack of trumps. On these two trump
leads, West followed with the three
and four.
East, back on lead with the trump
king, thought long time over what
to return and finally decided on the
club ten. Declarer grabbed this with
the ace, drew Vests remaining
trump, then claimed the balance
Obviously, he could overtake his
diamond ten in dummy and discard
the heart queen on the diamond
nine.
why didn't you let me ruff a
/ diamond?" West demanded of his
partner. Then I would have laid
down the heart ace and beaten the
contract"
How could I tell you had three
trumps?" East countered. South
certainly might have had seven
trumps for his four bid"
And there we have the crime West
should have announced" that he
had three trumps by using the lit
tle-known but extremely valuable
/ convention called the trump echo
This simple device operates as fol-
lows: A defender merely takes the
t trouble to 'high-low" in trumps
when he has started with three.
Thus, West should have PLAYED
the four first, then the three. or
tne seven nrSt, then the four or
three, and East would have known
that West could ruff a third round

T axe MyWord for 1t
BY FRANK COLBY,
Again BiZerte.

I should like to make one more
effort to save the historic name
BIzERTE from the sad fate suf-
fered by other such important place
names as Bataan, Corregidor,
Guadalcanal, Sevastopol, which ra-
dio has hopelessly corrupted. News
casters, commentators, and CORE
spondents to the contrary notwith-
standing, Bizerte is not "buzz-UR,
duh, bizz-UR-tee, izz-UR-tay."
The name does not have three syl-
lables.
The italian form, Bizerte, has
three syllables, thus: bee-ZAIR-tah.
But it has been obsolete for more
than go years. The now correct
French form (Tunisia has been a
French protectorate since 1880,
Bizerte, has two syllibles only, since
final "e" in French is silent unless
marked by the acute accent Caccent
aigu'O. The "e" of Bizerte is not
so marked.
Newscasters who persist in giving
the name three syllables appar-
emily are either demonstrating that
they speak French like a native
(of Squeedunk), or are imagining
that they are Anglicizingj the name.
The latter premise is nonsense for
the reason that % the spelling
"-erte" is not found in English
words, and (2) "e" after a con-
sonant at the end of English words
Is silent.
Moreover, I should like to re-
mind broadcasters who favor "bizz-
UR-tuh" that "tuh" for final "-te"
is neither French nor Italian nor
English-but it is as typically Ger
man as is der F'uhrer's face. And
how do you like that?
The only pronunciation sane
toned by the authorities is: bee
ZAIRT.
