BY Fronk Colby
There Us? Are?)

A teacher writes: 'If you want a
new star in your crown. give us a
commonsense article on the error Of
beginning a sentence with There
is" or There's" and following with
a plural noun or nouns, as:
There's lots of people at the game"
Somehow I've been unable to get the
point over to my English class.
My assistant, DR.. Etaoin Shrdlu,
says, "Harumph! There is often
used pronominally as a grammatical,
especially anticipatory, sub bject.
Harumph!"
Now that won't help you out a
bit, teacher. I put it in merely to-
show how fortunate we all are that
old Doc S. is just a research man
and has nothing to do with the ac-
tual writing of this column.
Rule. -
There is introduces a singular
noun.
There are" introduces plural
noun or two or more nouns.
That's about all there is to It.
But perhaps it might be we'll to
give few examples.
Wrong: There is (there's) hum,
dreds of dollars involved" Right:
There are hundreds of dollars in
volved."
Wrong: There is there's) many
facts to consider" Right: There are
many facts to consider.
Wrong: There's John and Mary .
in a new car Right: There are John
and Mary in a new car.
Wrong: There's been too many
delays. Right: There have been too
many delays.
Most sentences of this kind may
be checked by simply dropping
there" and rearrangiing the rest of
the sentence:
There (are? is?) hundreds of dol,
lars involved. Hundreds of dollars
are involved. Therefore: There are
hundreds of dollars involved. =
There (are? is?) John and Mary
in new car. John and Mary are
in new car. Therefore: There are
John and Mary in a new car.
There (are? is?) new family In
the neighborhood. A new family is
in the neighborhood. Therefore:
There is new family in the neigh
borhood.
P. S. Old Doc s. has just threat
ened to resign. What are you try
ing to do" he thundered, make
grammar understandable?
Do you know whether to use was or
were when expressing condition contrary
to fact? Mr.. Colby's leaf1et, CO, explains
the proper use of these words

Goren on Bridqe


The study of card combinations
and their proper play is very inter-
esting and will repay the student
of the game many times for the
effort expended in learning them.
A standard play involving simple
knowledge of fundamentals and yet
not known by the vast majority of
bridge players, came up in today's
hand. Against the three no-trump
contract. West opened the deuce of
spades. and dummys ten was taken
by EaSt's ace. The continuation of
that suit naturally did not appear
attractive since partner probably
had no more than one entry,
East properly realized that in
order to defeat the contract, club
tricks must be developed. He, there
fore. returned his fourth best club.
Declarer ducked and won in dummy
with the nine. The ace of diamonds
was driven out and the king of
clubs was still good for a trick.
Declarer, therefore, succeeded in
taking two spades. three hearts,
three diamonds and two clubs for
a total of 10 tricks. East's lead Of
the low club was a misguided step.
The two no-trump rebid after part
ner had made very mild response
marked the declarer with the king
of clubs, and it would have been
no secret that the low club lead
would permit him to take two tricks
in the suit. The proper return was
the queen. This would be won by
declarer's king and when West sub
sequently obtained the lead with
the ace of diamonds. a club lead
would have trapped dummy's jack.
A simple way to learn the proper
play of this particular combination
is this: When the dummy is under.
you (that is. plays before you) and,
contains an honor which you sur
round. as in this case the jack is.
surrounded by the queen and the.
ten, and you have an honor above
that, as in the case of the ace, you
play as though dummy's honor were
in your own hand. In other words.
you consider that you hold the ace.
queen (jack), ten from which the.
proper lead would be the queen
