CONTRACT BRIDGE WRITTEN FOR CENTRAL PRESS irE. V. SHEPARD FAMOUS BRIDGE TEACHER BAD PARTERNERSHIP WORK IF A PLATER'S confession may help others he had tetter tell the whole tale. Few are gullible enough to believe that any player is infallible. The following critical hand appeared in the fifth session of a very Important tournament, causing many Important swings of score in the Howell movement of seven tables of semi-finalists.

I sat West and passed oiy deal. There was no hurry about bidding the long club suit.

South long considered redoubling, which would have been fatal had he done so, as I would have bid 6-Diamonds at once, going to 7- Diamonds if necessary.

When South passed, of course I should have Me 8-Diamonds, just as it South had East, body E-Diamonds, with could find fault; redoubled, but I passed, why I could not Imagine a second later. It was Just one of the dumb things which usually happen on the last haad you have to play in a late session, even, if you are not tired. That momentary mental apathy gave us a tie for bottom score on the hand, instead tying for top score. As was to be expected, my partner's opening lead of diamonds was ruffed by declarer. Dummy ruffed a club.

Declarer ruffed another mond. Dummy ruffed a second club. Declarer ruffed dummy's last diamond. My partner ruffed the third of clubs. Then be took his Ace of spades, but declarer ruffed the second spade led and dummy ruffed clarer's last club, giving North his doubled contract of 5-Hearts.

No matter what my partner had tried our side never could have defeated the contract. One spade and a trump, or one spade and a club is all we ever could have won. Suppose East had played the hand at G-Diamonds or 7-Diamonds. Against an opening lead of hearts my hand would have ruffed. A spade from dummy would have picked up the Jons 1C A round of trumps would have shown that North held none of that suit.

The of spades and would have been good. My hand would have ruffed partner's low spade. Two added rounds of trumps would have picked up all opposing diamonds. East's two clubs would have been won with dummy's Acs and K. With no losers in his hand East could then have spread his cards for his grand slam, with 100 trump honors.

"And in further view of the fact that the law of this state charges city councils with the operation and management of its city owned water system there is no proviso for the delegation of that authority "to a Water Commission or anybody or group of persons. "You may be assured that no member of this city council has anything but the highest and most kindly regards for the members of the former water commission and we shall charge ourselves with a solemn duty to help smooth over the troubled water of discord that has arisen in our little city and urge you to do the same."

It was said some railroad being loyal to the railroad, were afraid that rates would be raised. However, there have been some changes in the upper bracket, none that will cause the increasing of rates, it was explained. Some water commissioners said that the taking out of the meters was done by C.
