CASEY POSTED
AMAZING RECORD

NEW YORK, Oct. 10 (AP).-
Charles Dillon Stengel, known
to millions as Casey, was Just
about the most widely, heatedly
and critically discussed man
ager in major league baseball.
With 10 pennants and seven
world champions in IL years
to his credit, Casey firmly en-
trenched himself in baseball's
managerial hall of fame.
When the Yankees an
nounced on October IL. 19As,
that they had signed Stengel to
succeed Bucky Harris as man
ager, most baseball writer's
concluded the club had hired
Stengel-one Of the games
most celebrated funnymen - to
keep the fans amused while the
team which had finished third
in 1948 was being rebuilt.
What happened is spectacu-
lar diamond hiStory-dramatic
at times breathtaking, certainly
never dull. Those who had
come to laugh at Casey's Jokes
remained to admire the new,
the tremendously successful
Stengel.
Five Flags In Row
Stengel'S Yankees won thu
1949 pennant by beating Bos.
ton on the final day Of the
season. They won again II
1850, again in 1851, 1852 anc

worship your partners penalty
double. You manage to beat
South one trick. The penalty
is 200 points, but South has
100 honors to cut the loss in
half.
Are you satisfied to collect a
mere 100 points net on the
East-West cards?
You can make seven dia-
monds against any defense.
Even If the grand slam is a
bit too risky for your taste,
you should still bid a small
slam. That would be worth
1890 points-almost IA times
the value of the penalty
double
Expert Rule
The expert rule on penalty
doubles is far from rigid. A
penalty double is a suggestion,
not an imperial decree.
The double shows prospects
of a trump trick or two to-
gether with a couple of defen-
sive tricks in the side suits.
If the doubler's only strength
is in the opponents suit, he
passes. Why drive your oppo-
nent out of the only suit you
can beat?

cepts the double (by passing)
If he has reasonable defensive
strength-two or more cards
in the doubled suit and ac-
ceptable values for his own
previous bids. But he tends
to take the double out if he
has a singleton or void in the
doubled suit.
In this case East should take
the double out by bidding
three hearts. This shows the
void. with considerable side
strength. If East had a two
suiter, rather than a three
suited hand, he would bid his
second suit instead of making
the cue bid in hearts.
From here on there should
be no holding West. He bids
diamonds and drives to at
least a small slam.

spade, and the next player
bids two hearts. You hold:
AQJ83 06 U754 @97642
What do you do?
Answer: Bid two spades.
You have only 3 points in
high cards, but the singleton
should be worth another three
points. 1t is foolish to wait
for more when you can raise

selling out cheaply when you
have the top suit.
