Boston Sunday Globe Alarcn Z8, 1972 ACES ON BRIDGE TIIE STA3IP HOBBY SO A U.N; plans 4 new airmails Reverse bid: a gap-filler By Jay Hatch your result The trouble started with West's double. He should have been content with a simple overcaU of one diamond. Dear Mr. Corn: Some people make a "big deal" out of reverse bids. When you do not open four-card major suits, what is so tremendous about it? The United Nations is planning on May 1 to withdraw its present 6c, 8c, 10c and 25c airmails and, to meet revised do-: mestic and overseas rates, to replace them with new 9c, 11c, 17c and 21c stamps of many colors.

Dumkopf Alameda, Calif. Answer: The reverse is used by most modern partnerships as a one-round force. It shows about 17-19 points and "fills the gap" between forcing to game (jump shift) and strongly suggesting game. In the bidding sequence you ask about West promises something like: What does North promise when he jumps to three spades? Short Tricks, San Francisco Answer: North's bid is known as a barricade bid.

It is a pre-emptive effort intended to make it difficult for East to bid or to find his best fit. A typical hand is four or more trumps, good distribution and less than eight or nine points.

Designs have been variously made by artists in Australia, Norway, Canada and Israel; and the printing is variously in Japan, Finland and Spain. Designs: 9c, blue and red a contemporary flight pattern. 11c, six-color shows many-colored birds in flight; 17c, yellow-red-orange cloud formations; 21c, eight-color jetstream forming the letters "UN." All will have four marginal inscriptions, the UN seal and the date 1972.

Israel will have several new, very interesting stamps April 17. To mark Independence Day, there will be four stamps picturing gates of Jerusalem and a souvenir sheet containing them; and for' Memorial Day, a 55 ag. picturing the traditional tomb of Jethro, the Druze prophet, father-in-law of Moses, and also a companion 55 ag. with a stylized bunch of flowers.

Good fitting hands and distribution are worth as much as high-card points and it is best to bid "as much as posible as quickly as possible."

The prints that Carter showed us were mostly 5x7 size and were surprisingly good, considering the minute negatives from which they were printed. Sometimes he orders 8x10 prints. The 3Vix5 prints are considered normal for the Minolta 16. "I've found the Minolta 16 especially good for portraits made outdoors in soft, overcast daylight." Particularly impressive were the winter pictures that Carter shot on a recent journey to Nantucket Island. "I found the small unit great as a cold weather camera.

I could carry it in my pocket or my glove if necessary. With a camera as small as this one, there is absolutely no reason for missing a good picture when it happens unexpectedly. You can carry a sub-miniature at all times, without it becoming a nuisance. "By the way," said Carter," it has built in flash synchronization, too, just in case." Class-A instructors art a breed unto themselves. For the most part, they must possess an abundance of patience, understanding, fortitude and determination qualities constantly required at rehearsals and on the contest ield.

Contriving and perfecting musical repertoires is no easy chore.

"I guess I bought the Minolta as a novelty and it wasn't till I got back to Milton that I put it to the test. The camera uses film that appears only slightly larger than regular 16mm motion picture film and comes in 20 exposure loads. Both black and white and color emulsions are available," explained Carter.

"The film I use most is re-spooled plus film cut in 20 exposure lengths. The aperture on the Minolta is adjustable but the TO.
