Take Nv Word for 1t 8, F'oot Cobb,

In the English language there
are number of word pairs that,
because of similarity in spelling
and/or pronunciation, often are
source of confusion. Here are
but a few:
Stationery stationary. Sta
tionery, noun, means writing
materials, such as paper, enve-
lopes, etc This letter is written
on expensive stationery. Sta
tionary, adjective, means fixed
in place; not changing. The sit
uation has remained stationary
(unchanging).
Immigrant-emigrant. An inn
migrant is person who comes
into a country to establish resi-
dence. An emigrant is a person
who leaves the country of his
residence to move to another.
The emigrant boarded the ship
at London to leave his native
land forever. Upon arrival the
immigrant was detained at Ellis
Island.
Imply-infer. To imply is to
hint; to express indirectly. To
infer is to deduce from facts; to
interpret; to draw a conclusion.

Admittedly, it is hard to give
up the high hopes you had when
you first picked up your hand.
However, the winning player is
the one who practices Self-con-
troll in this situation-the player
who knows the best thing to do
with a misfit is to drop it. Fast.
Mr.. Muzzy had pretty fair
hand in today's deal and opened
the bidding with one diamond.
He frowned a little when Mr..
Champion responded with one
spade. He tried two clubs and
frowned harder when Mr.. Cham
pion bid two spades.
At this point the maximum
on the North-South cards had
been reached. But Mr.. Muzzy
didn't quit. He looked across
the table suspiciously. Surely
Champion had some kind Of
preference between diamonds
and clubs. He was probably
being stubborn. (The weaker the
player, the less faith he has that
partner is bidding his cards cor
rectly.)
Anyway, Mr.. Muzzy made an
other try with a bid Of two no.
trump. Beginning here, the hand
was overheard. Mr.. Champion
properly bid three spades and
Mr.. Muzzy passed. But it was
too late. The defenders had no
trouble taking two hearts, two
spades and a club for down one.
When partner bids a suit in
which you have a singleton or a
void and on the next round
makes a simple rebid in the same
suit, you had better discount
your own hand at least a full
trick in deciding whether to bid
again.
If Mr.. Muzzy had mentally
discounted his hand a full trick
in this deal, he would have had
left Just bare minimum open
ing. And with no suit fit and
no Jump bid from Mr.. Cham
pion, game was extremely un-
likely. Two spades was the spot
and Mr.. Muzzy should have
promptly passed that bid.
