Since you and your partner
are playing blind" these are
the only legitimate methods for
exchanging information about
respective distributions and
high-card holdings.
Of course the declarer is try
ing to read" each card led by
the defenders, too.
The minute the six of clubs
was led by Mr.. Abel, Mr.. Dale
knew it was not fourth highest
lead. This knowledge, gained
through the use of the rule OF
eleven, guided the old master into
making the only play which
would net him 10 tricks.
When the six spot hit the ia
BILE, he made this simple calcula-
tion-six from eleven leaves five.
Now if the lead were a fourth
highest, there would be five clubs
higher than the six spot outside
of Mr.. Abel's hand But MIR.
Dale could see six such cards
In dummy's hand and his own.
So the lead was obviously from
q short suit. But how short Mr..
Dale decided not to take any
chance on its being a singleton.
He went up with dummy's ace
Of clubs.
He breathed easier when the
ace and king of spades pulled all
the opposing trumps, leaving the
queen on the board as an entry.
At trick four he led the queen OF
clubs and Mrs. Keen could take
her king whenever she pleased.
She laid off the queen but
when the ten was led and over
taken by dummy's jack she knew
the jig was up. She won and
her side cashed two heart tricks
but that was all.
If Mr.. Abel's original lead
had been from the king, MIR.
Dale could have ducked in dunn
my and won IL tricks-six
spades, five clubs and a diamond.
But he knew that could not be.
And if he had ducked the first
lead the defenders would have
promptly won four tricks-the
king of clubs, a club ruff and
two hearts.

A cycle of poems completed by
DR.. Claude A. S. Vigee, Brandeis
associate professor of romance
languages and literature, is titled
LA Corne du Grand Pardon"
which means ''horn of atone
ment."
In this work, however, the title
means not only the shofar of re-
demption but the "call to redeem
us from the death of life in our
time"
The theme of redemption is
expressed in a sequence of "a
poems, varying from the strictly
metrical to a free, almost CONVEX
sational style.
DR.. Vigee began the work in
June, 1852, and it will be pub
lished in Paris this year. Frag-
ments are appearing in several

WHAT KEY WEST WAS ONCE TT CAN BE AGAIN
IF WE HAVE .PUSH"

Key West needs industries, 80 Il is pertinent and
should be profitable to ask what Is good way for
to get industry, revive an industry, that once
brought millions Of dollars into Key West?
This editorial suggested to The Citizen by this
question, asked by tourist What has become of Key
Vests oncefamous cgars?" The tourist added that he
had asked for Key West cigars in several stores and
had been unable to buy any.
It may be said that our present cigar factories
what called buckeyes" by cgarmakers century ago
the cigar factories we had came under that trade desg
nation but the producers then and their
gogetters They not satisfied to stay In the
groove Their objective increase their output and
they didn't let up in their determination to increase it.
The result that Key West eventually manufactured
cigars made of Cuban tobacco than any other city
in the world not excepting Havana ITSELF At one time
Key West had 102 cigar factories not counting buckeyes
from which more than 10000 Key Westers derived a
livelihood.
is futile and supne to say that those times are
gone forever. What old timers did can be done now
become wide-awake and determined they were.
Local merchants, who sell cigars, not to blame
because they don't carry Key West cigars in stock.
The merchants supply the demand of the public, and
the public seldom asks for Key West cigar because it
Is not kept informed that such product available.
Local manufacturers not tptoe, the oldmers
used to be- to create demand for their cigars They
seemingly appear to be willing go along in the
groove from day to day..
Tampa gets the bulk of the cigar trade in Key West
and many residents undoubtedly will be surprised
learn that some cigars are manufactured in Key West
under bond and contain pure Cuban tobacco or Hav-
ana, it is called by the trade In the same way that
Tampa gets its tobacco from Cuba so also does Key
West get its tobacco from that country The underlying
for the few Key West cigars that are sold locally
elsewhere in the United States is that they are not
"pushed" as the Tampa cigars are.
The Key West Chamber of Commerce is anxious to
attract industry to Key West Why not start movement
and keep gong-dont let it die a-borning-to revive
more money to Key West than all other undertakings
combined?
