SUNDAY, MARCH 21, 1971 tllie Atlanta Journal and CONSTITUTION 7.A Dallas Aces on Way to Win Of Vanderbilt Bridge Title Symposium Due On Chaucer Work and the English Graduate Student Association, sessions will be held at the Georgia Center for Continuing Education oh campus. April 1 registration for the symposium, titled "Chaucer the Love-Poet," is open to the public. against the odds to make a close gam? contract: in the Vandebiltf'nal: East Dealer. Both sides By CHARLES GOREN The world champion Dallas Aces were well on their way to winning the Vanderbilt Knockout Team Championship, pre ATHENS, Ga. A spring symposium on the amorous works of a 14th century bard is expected to attract 300 scholars from across the nation to the University of Georgia April 1-2.

One academic camp of older Chaucer scholars fails to see symbolism in the writings while younger Chaucerians have taken an allegorical approach to the works, he says. "CHAUCER WROTE about love in many different ways-he was a delightful character," Provost says. "But there's also a lot of serious thought in his works." CodirectorDr.

Jerome Mitchell says program participants represent some of the nation's top scholars of the Middle English period. They include Norman Elia-son and James Winsatt of the University of North Carolina, Edmund Reiss of Duke University, Edgar Duncan of Vanderbilt University and Robert Kaske of Cornell University. "We could probably spend a month on Chaucer if we wanted to," Mitchell says. "He's fun to read, a great artist and his works are beautiful no matter how many times you read him." Sponsored by the university's English department, the College of Arts and Sciences A club was led to the jack and ace, and West returned the suit. Eisenberg exited with a diamond, West put up the queen and East followed with the jack.

The club return was taken in dummy with the king, and declarer went right by playing ace and another trump, putting East on lead. East led the queen of hearts, which declarer won in dummy with fee king. That was an unusual line, for the percentage play is to rely on the honors being split. In theory, Eisenberg should have won with the ace in his hand and finessed West for the jack of hearts. However, Eisenberg did not know that East's jack of diamonds on the second round of that suit was East's lowest diamond.

He thought East had played a high diamond as a suit preference signal calling for the higher ranking side suit in this case, for hearts. Accordingly, he elected to play East for both the queen and jack of hearts. Thus, he now led the ten of hearts and ran it, and when that held the trick the contract was home. At the other table, West led the seven of hearts against four spades, and the defenders made one trick in each suit for a one-trick The aces gained 10 IMPs on the deal.

In Saturday afternoon's first session of their final match against a team captained by Journal reporter meets Alfred Sheinwold and comes off last. Page 4B. Ron Von der Porten, the Aces did not play a wrong card as they racked up a record 93 International Match Point lead that virtually made certain of the match by the end of the first quarter. Most of the swings were caused by overly aggressive bidding on the part of the Von der Porten team. In the second set of 18 boards, the Aces added a further 6 IMPs to the lead.

As a result, they started the final 36 boards of the match Saturday night knowing that the title was theirs unless they had a series of major calamities. FOR BILLY Eisenberg, Bob Hamman, Bobby Goldman, Jim Jacoby, Mike Lawrence and Bobby Wolff, this is their first Vanderbilt win as a team and the first major knockout team title they won since capturing the 1989 Spingold event. It will give theVn a great boost toward a successful defense of their world title in Taipei, Formosa, in June. The Von der Porten had sprung a surprise in the semifinal round by beating the top-seeded International Team in a thrilling match by a margin of 18 IMPs. Meanwhile, the Aces had coasted to a comfortable 56 IMP win over the Florida team led by Al Bricklin, who had eliminated a number of high seeds on their way to the semifinal.
