Uncle Ruv's Corner By seme" coff"e"

When the present century started,
people were able to hear music, in
cluding good music. Some Of them
went to an opera house to listen to
great stars sing. Others attended
band concerts in public parks, and
still others heard music-both good
and bad-while attending vaudeville
shows. There were orchestras and
piano recitals. Many children at
that time (and the same is true
today practiced the piano, the
violin and other instruments ut
home.
To hear great music in the home
was hard, but is was possible. The
phouograph had been invented, and
:. was possible for the songs OF
famous singers to be placed on rec
ortis. Band and orchestra music
also could be recorded.
That meant big step in human
progress, but what kind of an in
strument did people have back
there in 1900? They had q phono-
graph with a crank. By turning the
crank, a person could wind up the
machine. Then, by switching a
lever, the wax record could be made
to turn. A needle scratched against
the cylinder and sounds came out
Of a big horn.
The sounds from the phonograph

Goren on Bridqe

Because I occasionally point out
the abuses to which many players
subject the Blackwood bid, some
readers gain the mistaken impress
sion that am opposed to the four
no trump convention. Nothing
would be further from the truth. II
use it, and recommend 1t freely on
hands suited to that type Of treat
ment; but that it Is grossly over
used device, there can Be no doubt.
Just before the recent national
championships in Philadelphia II
had the pleasure of q visit from
Easley Blackwood, the originator Of
the convention. When asked in what
percentage Of slams he considered
that the four o-trump convention
could be properly employed, he ex-
pressed the doubt that the figure
would exceed Is per cent. Novices,
on the other hand, seem to feel that
the four-no-trump call is . pre-
requisite to contracting for slam.
The essential ingredients of 4
slam are: A good trump suit,
good side suit for diseards, distribu-
tion, and aces and kings. When you
have ascertained most of the peril
Ient facts and have reached the
point where your only concern is the
number Of aces and kings held by
partner, then it is time enough TO
resort to the convention. In other
words, Blackwood should be resorted
to, usually, at the end Of the bidding
rather than at the beginning.
The South hand shown today
lends itself perfectly to Blackwood
treatment. North's jump to three
spades is just the right call. His
hand is worth Is dummy points,, !,
IA in high cards, because the queen
Of trumps is promoted to the rank
Of king, and one for the doubleton.
After North's jump to three
spades it is evident that no spade
trick will be lost. If partner has
two aces and king, 13 tricks can
be counted. There Is no other prob
lem. South, therefore, makes the
conventional bid of four no-trump
and North's response of five hearts
denotes two aces. The five-no-trump
bid asks for kings and North's re-
Spouse Of six diamonds shows one
king. Thirteen top-card tricks can
now be counted and declarer might
Just as well play the hand at no.
trump to guard against the remote
possibility that East might have a
void of some suit and be able to ruff
the opening lead.

Greek Election SUNDAY
May Affect Effort 10
Patch Yugos|av Ties
BY the Associated Press

ATHENS, Greece, Mar. 2.-The
outcome of next Sundays par
liamentary elections here may di-
rectly affect the success of cur
rent efforts to patch ruptured
trade and diplomatic ties between
Yugoslavia and Greece, observers
forecast today.
One high diplomatic source said
the result Of the election certainly
will influence negotiations now
under way for resuming trade
and eventual full diplomatic re-
lations between the two countries.
Greece long has been at odds
with Yugoslavia and her other
Balkan neighbors because Of their
aid to the Communicated Greek
guerrillas in the civil war.
Yugoslavs Widen Rift.
The rift was widened by Yugo-
slav charges that Greece was con-
Quoting a terrorist campaign
against her subjects, arresting
Yugoslavs who sought visas to
return to their native land.
Delicate negotiations now afoot
for patching this rift are being
conducted with a watchful eye to
see whether the Greek voters will
reject the royalist Populists-
largest party in the last Parlia-
ment-when they go to the polls
Sunday.
Deputy Premier and Foreign
Minister Constantin Tsaldaris,
leader of the Populists long has
been a symbol and target of Com
munist charges that Greece is
"Monarcho- Fascist"
Qualified observers feels that if
Tsaldaris' party were to slip to
second or third place in Sundays
balloting, it would give Yugo-Slav
Premier-Marshal Tito a chance
to tell his people that the Greeks
are veering away from Mon
archo-Fascism" towards democ-
racy.
