Should he bid or pass? OF
course, there would have been
no problem If Mrs. Keen had
passed. But since she had over
called, any bid by Mr.. Dale
would be classed as free" and
for such a bid he needed certain
definite values. He finally de-
cided he had just barely enough,
for a single raise of his part
ner'S suit.
When Mr.. Masters rebid two
hearts, he showed a good hand,
considerably better than a mini
mum opening bid. Now, holding
as many as four hearts and con-
sidering the fact 1t was Mr.. Mas
ters, and not Mr.. Muzzy. who
would play the hand, Mr.. Dale
raised hearts to three.
Mr.. Masters went on to game
and Mrs. Keen led the queen of
diamonds. Mr.. Masters looked
the hand over for possible losers
before playing to the first trick.
There was one in diamonds, and
the fact that Mrs. Keen had
overcalled made it seem likely
that there were two losers In
spades and one in hearts.
If things were this bad, Mr..
Masters. figured he could still
make the hand if he could keep
Mr.. Abel out of the lead so that
spades would not be led until he
had set the stage properly and
was ready for them.
On the first trick. Mr.. Abel did
not put up the king of diamonds,
but signaled with the eight.
Therefore, Mr.. Masters ducked
this trick. A diamond was con-
tinued and he won.
He went to dummy with the
ace of clubs. leading his eight
spot in case his deuce should be-
come useful later for entry pur-
poses. (The man thinks of
everything0
The nine of hearts was re-
turned and ducked. Mrs. Keen
won with the king and got out
with another heart. Mr.. Mas
ters won, cashed a third round
of the suit, led the king and
queen of clubs and entered
dummy again by leading the
deuce of clubs to dunmy's six
spot.
Now he was ready for spades.
He led the Jack from the board
and ducked it. Mrs. Keen won
with the queen and had nothing
left but spades and diamonds. A
spade lead was sure death. so she
returned a diamond.
Mr.. Masters discarded one Of
dummy's spades and ruffed in
his own hand. The ace of spades
and durnmy's last trump pro-
vided his ninth and tenth tricks.

act put on by the bartenders. The
whole show is put on the center

we enjoyed Louis Pops" Arm

Billy Kyle, Trummie Young, d
Velma Middleton. We rate Pops"
as one of the all-time greats.
We also visited New York's EN-

Of training the child up right
When they come in from school
You allow them to go to a ball

You should have some work for

Teach them the right way to go
Don't allow them to go to the ball

And chop out their row.
Learn them how to chop out their

Then in Heaven you will receive
a crown
Obeying the will of God you see
And not allowing your child to run

Millions are going to hell
And you can't be right if you are
not right
When you fail to train your child
up right
I am afraid hell will be your home.
