There are, however. several
useful devices by which expert
enced players can read" the dis
tribution of the suits around the
table and even determine the To-
cations of many specific cards.
The most useful Of all of these is
the rule of eleven.
My mail clearly shows that a
great many players. including
some well beyond the novice
stage, are still baffled by this
device. There is no good rea-
son why this should be SO. Ac-
tually it is quite simple and its
advantages are available, with
very little study, to the beginner
as well as the experienced player.
Here is how it works. When
your partner leads a card which
Is the fourth highest in his suit
Fourth highest is the accepted
lead from a broken suit of four
or more cards., then you deduct
the number of the card led from
eleven.
The remainder represents the
number of cards higher than the
card led-which are in the hands
of the other three players.
Today's deal is a simple exam
pie of how the rule of eleven
works. Let's see what Mr.. Mas
ters learned from his partners
lead of the trey of hearts. Three
from eleven leaves eight. So
there were eight hearts higher
than the trey, outside of Mr.
Meek's hand. Mr.. Masters saw
four of these in his own hand
and dummy. Therefore, Mr..
Dale held four hearts higher
than the trey.
There was the additional in
ference that at least two of Mr..
Dale's hearts were honor cards,
because otherwise Mr.. Meek
would have had a sequence of
honors TX @ 10 or QJ9, etc. in
which case his proper lead would
have been the top of the honor
sequence and not the fourth
highest card of the suit.
On this reasoning Mr.. Masters
could see there was little hope of
defeating the contract by con-
tinuing hearts. So he won with
the ace and shifted to the queen

APARTMENT KITCHEN -
What should an ideal apartment
kitchen contain? One reader has
come up with a wide variety of
suggestions which stem from
long experience in apartment
living.
These suggestions include a
plea for more work space and
electric outlets placed so that
the many new kitchen appliances
can be used easily; more storage
space for such items as dishes,
pans, cleaning equipment, flower
pots, soaps and paper goods;
and some place for putting tea
towels, hand towels, silverware
chest. boxtops. labels and the
grocery list.
One Of the often-expressed de-
sireS is an eating area in the
kitchen, either instead of or in
addition to. a dining area in the
living-dining room. This is an
area used for quick breakfasts

ia garden you can create on a
button or a small coaster. All
you need are some tiny cactus
plants. stones, peat moss, sand,
scissors and transparent plastic
cement.
Just apply a thing coat of ce-
ment on the button or coaster,
then place the small cacti and
hold firmly in place until the
cement will held them. Add
small pieces of rock around the
cacti and fill in gaps with small
succulents.
To complete the garden, you
sprinkle with clean sand to cover
the button or coaster and place
bits of peat moss around the
base. The moss will hold mois-
ture needed to keep the plants
growing.
When completed, the button
gardens can be given as presents
or used to decorate window sills,
knick-knack shelves, or add
color and interest to end tables.

and snacks without having to
disturb the more formal living
dining area.
Some Of this readers most in
tereSting, and possibly contro-
lversial, suggestions were for
small ranges and refrigerators to
provide adequate service but take
up less kitchen space, and
adoption Of the over-the-stove
cupboard to hold the holiday
rooster.
Other desirable features indi-
Gated include a door for the
kitchen to keep heat and odors
from the rest Of the apartment,
and doors on all the kitchen cup
boards. A special additional idea
was that ice trays for the re-
frigerator should have lids to
reduce frosting and result in less
frequent defrosting operations.
Actually, quite a few of the
apartments these days measure
up fairly well to this picture of
the ideal kitchen. During the
next week or so we'll have a few
tips on things which can be done
by do-it-yourselfers to make your
kitchen match up to your ideal.
