AS usual, Mr.. MuzZy misinter-
preted what had been said and the
freak result proved again that you
don't get paid for teaching your
partner during game. You are
the one who pays.
Overbidding his hand slightly,
Mr.. Muzzy jumped into a four spade
contract and Mr.. Champion took
the first two tricks with the king
and queen Of diamonds. He then
shifted to a trump and Mr.. Muzzy
was in. He saw that he had sure
loser in clubs so could not afford to
lose trick in hearts.
Winning another trump trick and
rufing his last diamond, Mr.. Muzzy
led q club to his ace. Here he
paused and started thinking-try-
ing to remember what Mr.. Cham
pion had said about flnessing so
that he could apply it to his han
ding Of the heart suit.
His reasoning went like this: He
himself would normally lead the
nine Of hearts to dumny's ace, re-
turn heart and finesse the jack.
But Che f1gureO if that's the way
he'd do it, it must be wrong be-
cause Mr.. Champion disapproved
everything he did.
He therefore decided to lead the
Jack and when Mr.. Champion COW
cred with the queen, dummy's ace
won.
Now with the ten and four other
hearts still outstanding, Mr.. MuzzyI
Etill had finesse to take. This
didn't seem to displease him as he
loves to finesse. He pulled a small
heart from the board and hooked
the nine. When this won he had
his game made.
Mr.. Dale looked at Mr.. Champion.
"On this hand, our pupil made a.
really sensational decision" he re-
marked. I'm beginning to like
those lessons you're giving"

Not Testify
Before Judge
Lawyer Hints 1.-THE
Actor" Will Remain
Silent On $4,000
HOldup Charge

NEW YORK u Willie (Thc
Actor Sutton may make his cur
rent role, as defendant in a 1850
bank robbery trial, strictly one OF
silence. His attorney hints he may
not testify.
And, despite court ruling, it
appears that he will have 10 share
top billing with the ghost of the
young man who identified him for
police-slain Arnold Schuster.
Sutton and Thomas King, As,
both notorious bank robbers and
Jail breakers, went on trial Tues
day in a $64, 900 holdup of a branch
of the Manufacturers Trust Co., in
the borough of Queens.
Queens County Judge Peter T.
Farrell ruled the Schuster Staying
has absolutely no connection"
with the defendants and sis not
an issue" But the murder crcpt
into the proceedings number of
times.
The judge made the ruling while
defense attorneys were questioning
prospective jurors, one OF whom
was excused when he mentioned
the Schuster Staying.
George Washington Herr, one of
Sutton's attorneys, also asked the
talcsmcn if they would be ''prej.
udiced against this defendant ii he
did nct take the stand"
you wouldn't say to yourself,
III he's innocent, why doesn't he
get up there and say so'ss' +" Herr
said,
The task of selecting q jury con-
tinues today. Tuesday three jurors
were chosen--subjcct to a possible
defense challenge.
Sixty talcsmcn were excused for
a number CT rcasons--business re.
sponsit ilities, family illness and
possible prejudice. Among the lat
ter was a banker.
Schustcr, A-ycar old Brooklyn
clothing salesman Was slot down
near his home March 8. II was on
Feb. IS that he had recognized
Sutton on a subway train and
pointed him cut 10 police.
The arrest Of Killing and John
Dcvcnuta, 81, followed a few days
after Sutton's capture. AL three
were behind bars the night Schu-
ster was shot.
DeVcnuta Tuesday won a scpa.
rate trial after the state said he
would testify against Sutton and
