Goren on Bridqe

It was "the more deadly Of the
species" appropriately enough that
carried off the lions share Of the
honors at the recent National
championship tournament at the
Roney Plaza Hotel in Miami Beach.
The open pair event was taken for
the second consecutive year by my
favorite partners and frequent
teammates, Helen Sobel of New
York and Margaret Wagar Of At
hnta, Ga.
The margin of victory over the
sunner-up team Of Peter Leventritt,
New York, and Edison Wood Of
indianapolis was microscopic, one
nftieth of a point to be exact. The
fractions result from adjusted carry
overs of scores from the qualifying
rounds, where the competitors may
have qualified from different sec
tions. Outstanding in the annals
of the game was the sporting gesture
made by the ladies, who in view Of
the narrowness of the margin Of
fered to have the finish declared a
tie. The governing body, however,
in making its ruling followed the
principle that a miss Is as good as
o mile.
Today's hand is from one Of the
early rounds of that event.
Cogpizant of the raised eyebrows
which the above bidding diagram
must have induced on many OF my
gentle readers, I feel called upon
10 pause a moment for station iden-
tiication. Vests bid of two hearts
was a rather "corny' attempt at
deception. Convinced that hearts
was the suit in which the opposi-
ton probably had their game, ne
attempted in this manner to olvert
them from that declaration. Soutn
was not to be diverted.
North, too, made an irregular bid
Of two no-trump. not having heart
stopper. With his action I sympa-
ehize. Having passed a hand con-
tanning almost two tricks g points,
1t behooved him to take some action
and this seemed rather more con-
venient than a bid Of three clubs,
a more orthodox bid.
The three of spades was opened
and the jack forced the ace. The
diamond came back and South set
out to take the balance Of the
tricks. But his sequence of plays
had to be chosen with delicacy. The
king Of clubs was cashed first,
dummy was entered with the ace
of clubs and the losing club dis
carded on the king of spades. \ Dun-
my then led the eight OF hearts
East played low and South fol-
lowed with the six. A club was now
played from dummy and the hoped
for three-three break came of. The
ace of hearts drew down East's
king, dummy was entered by lead
ing the four of hearts to the five
and the jack Of diamonds was dis
earded on dummy's 18th club.
East could have held declarer tc
ii tricks by playing the king o1
hearts on the eight, which woulo
have provided dummy with one
entry less for the establishment o1
the clubs, but one can hardly point
the finger of shame at him for fail
ure to do so.

Despite warning from the INDIANS.
Daniel Boone kept hunting in Ken
lucky. He was going about alone
one day when he saw Shawnee
Indians ahead of him. He looked
behind and saw other Indians. Still
other Indians were few hundred
yards to one side of him.
He was surrounded except that on
one hide of him was cliff. Spying
a tall maple tree which almost
reached to the edge of the cliff, he
leaped into it. The Indians rushed
to the spot where he had stood, but
failed to see the white man.
That was one Of the famous
escapes of Boone. He was to get
away from warriors time and again
in the course of his life.
With his family and a number OF
friends, Boone started settlement
in Kentucky which came to, be
known as Boonesborough. There
was a heavy fence around the place,
forming a stockade.
On a cold February day Boone lett
Boonesborough with 80 men to
obtain a supply of salt from Blue
Licks.s A party of 12o Indian war
riors took the whites by surprise and
captured them. These warrior were
led by Chief Blackf1sh.
There was talk of putting all the
prisoners to death, but Boone gave a
speech to the Indians in a council.
Then a vote was taken. A war CLUB
was passed around, and each war
rior who wanted the prisoners to die
dashed the club to the ground.
There were SO Of these votes. The
warriors who wanted to show mercy
passed the club to the next man
without throwing 1t down. There
we're 81 who voted this way, so the
lives of the prisoners were spared by
a margin of two votes.

NY mail frequently contains ap-
peals to campaign against certain
usages and pronunciations once held
incorrect, but which are now fully
sanctioned.
This is typical: T. H. G., OF Dix
mont, Pa, a scholarly and thought
full man, thinks that something
should be done to discourage the
turning of French words into Eng
lish.
He cites as especially offensive
debut as a verb, ennui as verb, ana
rendezvous as a verb, as, "She de-
buted at the country club; he was
ennuied by to much talk; they rem
dezvoused at the Blank Hotel"
Debut as a verb debut, debuted,
debuting) is rather new. But 1t Is
fully sanctioned by Webster's New
International, Second Edition. The
recommendations are deh-BYOO; deh-
BYOOD; deh-BYOO-ing.
Ennui as a verb (ennui, ennuied,
ennuying) has long been good Eng
lish. Funk and Wagnalls quotes this
example from Kane's "Grinnel Ex-
petition" 1857: Il was ennuied past
all bearing, walking the deck beast
like" The pronunciations are ahn-
WEE; ahn-WEED; ahn-WEE-ing.
Rendezvous as a verb (rendezvous,
rendezvoused, rendezvousing) is the
oldest and most familiar usage OF
the three. 1t was widely used by
the military, especially the Air
Forces, during World War II.
Here Is another Funk and Wag-
nails quotation from Sparks Writ
ines OF Washington" 1881: "You
(Mai. Gen. Howe) will rendezvous
the whole of your command at Ring
wood or Pompton."
The pronunciation are RAIN
duh-voo; RAHN-duh-vood; RAIN
duh-voo-ing.

Indeed, there are more French
words in English than any other
element. The approximate percent
ages are: French, IS per cent; Anglo
Saxon, Is per cent; Latin, is per
cent: Greek, IA per cent; all others,
10 per cent.
We are prone to forget that Eng

All words, of whatever source, that
