Is there such a bid? How can you double nothing? Zero Times Zero, Vallejo, Calif. Answer: You cannot double "nothing" and there is no such bid.

However, there is a penalty involved, since the doubler may have imparted illegal information. The laws provide that the offender must substitute a legal call and his partner must pass at his next legal turn to bid. Dear Mr. Corn: We bid six no trump and had seven made.

They were chosen to carry out the theme of urbanization of Canada. And yet each preserves a lot of the delightful air of the past.

Polaroid's new Square Shooter 2 camera (listed at under $25), uses lower-cost, square-format color film to provide the most inexpensive 60-s color photos that Polaroid has ever offered.

The Square Shooter 2 features a transistorized electronic shutter for fully automatic exposure control for indoor and outdoor exposures. The controlled shutter speeds range from 1 -500th to one second. Its built-in flash receptacle uses standard four-shot flashcubes for controlled flash pictures for pictures of subjects from four to 10 feet. Focusing the camera is simple: The lens is turned to the distance seen on the rim of the lens. The Polaroid company's thinking has been to provide an all-purpose color camera for the mass market price range in which 70 percent of amateur still cameras are purchased, according to surveys.

The club is just around the corner from the exit of the Boston exten-( sion of the Massachusetts, Turnpike for easy access by automobile.

Taking a prior peek at some upcoming items, we note that Polaroid will COIN COLLECTOR Winning of By Joel Sable The Wittnauer Precious Metals Guild, in cooperation with the Wells Fargo Bank, is issuing a new, limited edition of 36 individually numbered medallions. A dramatic range of men and events significant in the winning of the West will be commemorated. The series is available in solid sterling silver or 24-karat gold electoplated sterling and begins with medallic tributes to the Wells Fargo Coach and Pony Express. Every Golden West medallion is 40mm in diameter (somewhat larger, thicker and heavier than a silver dollar). An impressive 525 grains of sterling silver is contained in each high-relief, antique-finished masterwork.

Every collector's medallion is distinguished by an exclusive, personal serial number. The eminent sculptor. Marcel Jovine, has been commissioned to create the design for 36 medallions. work has been exhibited throughout Europe and the United over THE Match seem to have things pretty much to themselves. Each sports a win over the other two, with no appreciable point spread to reflect superior strength.

To illustrate how closely bunched this trio is in seasonal standings, St. Patrick is 1-2-0, St. Therese 1-1-1 and St. Anthony 1-0-2. In A-2, St.

Patrick enjoys a slight edge, posting a 2-1-0 record, followed by St. Anthony's 1-2-0 and St. Therese's third place consistency (0-0-3). St. Anthony has its work cut out in defending its Class-C diadem.

St. Patrick owns two triumphs and one third while the best the champ could do, this winter, was third place in two out of three shows. St. Therese broke into the top three only once, finishing second in the season opener. In that same contest, Holy Family surprised everyone but its own followers, winning handily and then proceeding to prove it was no fluke with back-to-back runner-up point totals.

One might suspect that the other 14 color guards are just so much window trim and their chances are, at best, of the extreme longshot variety. This may turn out to be the case, but championship competitions have a knack Bv Bennett Morrill The jets're in her nostrils." By Herb Cole Twenty-four color guards will vie for circuit divisional laurels in the EMass championship finals Saturday night at Stone-ham High School. Though there been conflicting reports on the starting time, the official step-off is set for 6:30. Defending champion in all three classes is St. Anthony of Everett.

Seeking to break its grasp on A-l are St. Patrick (Stoneham), St. Anthony (Allston). I.C. Reveries (Revere), St.

Therese (Everett), Orbiteers (Tewksbury), Rangerettes (Franklin) and Union Brigade (Brockton). In A-2, pressure will be applied by the suburban sharpshooters (Framing-ham), Militiamen (Bedford), St. Patrick, St. Therese, Union Brigade, Orbiteers, Spartans (Nashua, N.H.) and Royal Gems (Newburyport). Out to upend the title-holders in class are the Elks Trojans (Nashua, N.H.), Holy Family Defenders (Rockland), Princemen (Melrose), Braves (Braintree), St.

Therese and St. Patrick. Based on seasonal performances, it appears to be a three-unit affair in both A-l and A-2, with Class-C up for grabs among four squads. Exclusive of last night's contest, St. Anthony, St.

It has happened before and the possibility always exists for upset victories, especially by those whose previous performances would give them no creditable status. Whatever the outcome, there is one sure winner, the extent of its success dependent on the number of fans in the stands. This winner is the EMass Memorial Scholarship Fund from which annual educational grants are awarded to a minimum of five high school senior members of EMass units.

As the only means of replenishment and perpetuation of the program, all admission and refreshment proceeds will be turned over to the scholarship committee. A spokesman, perhaps, summed it up neatly in assessing the need for a large turnout, "These fans are sharing the fun part of the Fund so that others, because of this support, can share the educational opportunities the Fund provides." EMass general body assembles tomorrow night in the Immaculate Conception School Hall, Winchester, to resume deliberations over by-law proposals tabled at last month's meeting. Several important topics are covered among these propositions and it is expected floor debate will be closely supervised to permit completion of the bylaw committee's report and recommendations. In the new EMass band division, the Hudson CYO entry will be referred to as the Royal Jades. Thomas J.

Answer beloiv. Confusion exists over the Fischer-Spassky match. For some time, the rumors flew thick that Boris Spassky would decline to play in Belgrade, the reason being the warm climate. It also was reported that Spassky was not happy about the idolatry with which Yugoslav youngsters hold Fischer. However, Euwe made it clear that refusal to play in Belgrade would result in forfeiture of the crown and the Russians apparently capitulated after Euwe flew to Moscow.
