OLSON The Delta Bridge League met at the Sherman Hotel last Saturday evening with a nice turnout in attendance. However, the size of the turnout was not up to par and we once again urge all of our old members to attend these meetings. We are expecting a record turnout next Saurday evening with the hunting season over and colder weather starting to be the regular thing. We had a really tough hand for the set hand at this meeting and it really stopped most all of the players who played it. The hand simple squeeze and I am somewhat disappointed that only one pair, Mrs.

L. P. Treiber and Mrs. R. L.

Parsons, saw the solution and played this hand properly. Here is the hand with the bidding and the play: Both WEST S-8 6 4 H--AK D-Q 10 8 C--K 9 6 North 1 2 4 vulnerable: North dealer. NORTH S--A H-9 8 4 D--A: 3 C-Q 8 74 32 EAST -Q 3 H-J 6 5 3 D-9 76 5 2 C-10 5 SOUTH S--J 10 9 7 51 H-10 7 2 D--K 4 C--A East South West Pass Pass Pass 35 Pass Pass Pass In some cases West put in a double over the bid of one spade. Where this occurred South should have even, less difficulty making the it places all the outstanding honor tricks in the West hand. The opening lead in all cases was the king of hearts which was followed in rapid succession by the ace and queen.

When the queen of hearts held the third trick West with the thought of preventing diamond ruffs lead the four of spades. Declarer having taken this with the ace in the dummy has no choice but to lead another round of trump and his world brightens somewhat when the queen drops. Now the lead of a small club allows the declarer to enter his hand and draw West's last trump. Declarer at this point realizes that if the diamond queen is in the East hand a single finesse will win the hand for him. However, South knows that the finesse should and can be put off until the last resort.

With this thought in mind South leads out his last three trumps and on the last of them West must come down to threecards. He must hold three diacards. must hold three diamonds and also the king of clubs which of course is impossible. If West discards the king of clubs declarer can win the last three tricks with the queen of clubs and the ace and king of diamonds. If West lets go of a diamond it will make the three diamonds in declarer's hand good for the last three tricks.

Pairs scoring over fifty percent were as follows: 1. Mrs. F. J. Earle and Mrs.

J. L. Temby, 63.88. 2. Mrs.

CRANE CASE D-285: Jerry aged 49, is married to a woman of 35.

"I've been getting drunk pretty often lately," he confessed, "and it's just to get away from an unsolved problem. "If I don't find a solution soon, I'm afraid I'll end it all by a bullet through my head. "Three months ago I became impotent. It drove me frantic. I've tried all sorts of patent medicines and hormones, gonadal injections and so forth, but to no avail.

"In all justice, shouldn't I urge her to try her luck with another marriage? I'm just a millstone around her neck. "I've read your column diligently so it has been with prayer in my heart that I have come here to see you in person. This is my zero hour." Diagnosis I have reproduced Jerry's exact comments so you readers can see the emotional state of the typical male when he becomes frightened. After being married for some time, millions of husbands notice a lack of their former ardor. They don't acknowledge such fears to their mates, for their pride will not permit such an admission.

So they camouflage their difficulty and try to divert their wife's attention from the real problem by growing unduly bitter and sarcastic. They pick on her about trifles, such as her cooking or supposedly poor housekeeping. They even lose interest in their children. This isn't the truth, but an alibi. Jerry isn't organically impotent.

cured him in an hour's interview. But he has grown worried. This made him analytical. He watched himself out of the corner of his eye, so to speak. But you cannot analytical and emotional at the same time.

Thus, the moment that a man grows worried or fearful, he can soon kill his desire, even in 24 hours. Most men are impotent for psychological reasons. An understanding wife can readily cure this type of impotence.
