Bridge Problems No.1 The Dummy Mr. A, the host, is sitting due South and playing with Mr. B, who is working at North. Mrs. A is talking at her husband's left and Mrs. B. is crouching on the other side of the table. Mr. A has twelve spades and an ace and has been granted a six-spade bid, doubled and re-doubled. Mr. B, the dummy for the evening, has a ten-high hand and has hilariously revealed it to the intrepid Mr. A. Mrs. A has just led a small heart, which Mr. A will trump. Unfortunately, Mr. B considers the bid of six spades impossible and is telling en- tertaining stories. Mrs. seriously , who seldom takes her bridge has used the cue to break in with a bit of conversation for her own part. Mr. A, the bidder (a strong, silent type of bridge player), has gently remarked, “Let’s see, a heart led, I believe.” Problem: How can Mr. A eliminate Mr. B and his stories from the table without using violence? Answer: Fortunately Mr. A_ brought home a new copy of Jupce and he will quickly use it to lure his partner from his conversation, thus allowing him to finish the game in peace. Are you prepared to meet the emergency of the misunderstand- ing dummy? If not, send in the applica- tion for a weekly insurance against this dangerous bridge menace. a | JUDGE PUBLISHING CO., INC., 1 | 627 West 43rd Street, I | New York City.
