Boston Sunday Globe November 7, 1971 ACES ON BRIDGE 4 i. THE STAMP HOBBY 7: Talk promises to heat up 1 Several countries honoring Iran for 2500th anniversary 4 i ar i i -S, A sr ftjM4A iff Bhra G. Corn Jr. i Uer Mr. Corn: During our regular Friday-night game tae opponents really mangled us on this lind.

It's been the subject of cool ever since, but I think the tempera- -V i 7l 1 I Dear Mr. Corn: I am reading a book by the "other authority" He advises that a four-no-trump bid over either three-no-trump opening is made on nine or seven balanced points, respectively. Is "Brand sugesting the four-no-trump bid as ace asking? Madison Wake Forest, N.C. Answer Our competitor is selling you the straight goods. The direct raises in no trump are point-showing bids.

Opener passes with a minimum and bids on with a maximum. Dear Mr. Corn: What does one say to guests or hosts who refuse to use the word "Pass?" Am I being a stick-in-the-mud or are others equally upset by the "by-mes'," "no bids" and the like? I'm an old-timer but I think I could learn to tolerate deviation if the guys at, the top do. Fuddy-Duddy, Taylor, Mich. Answer "Pass" is the suggested call, but even "'at the top" "no bid" is sometimes used.

Consistency is important and bidding such as follows should be avoided: ti-e is going up, 4 Can you comment on the bidding, particularly East's tree hearts? 7 These were the hands and WEST 4.KQ982 OA984 6 South West 3 DbL 4 4S?

East right have bid diamonds; however, he cannot be faulted for choosing the major. By Jay Hatch There's something mighty impressive about age.

Not so much talk about the millions of years man has been in this universe. Recorded history is what's most staggering, and for most of us this means ancient lands. Great Britain next year will mark the 50th year since the finding of old King Tut's tomb. That's old, all right. But so is the tomb of the ancient Persian ruler Cyrus the Great.

It is being pictured this squarish stone box atop several stone steps because Cyrus was the founder, 2500 years ago, of the present Iranian dynasty. Iran has just celebrated all this lavishly. Now it is winning philatelic plaudits, too. Belgium released a 7fr picturing ithe tomb. So has Turkey in a three-stamp set.

The other two stamps present in beautiful mosaic colors an Iranian miniature and a snapshot of Ataturk greeting Riza Shah Pahlavi of Iran. Ireland Nov. 15 will release its first Christmas stamp set, 2p and 6p reproducing the masterpiece of Irish artist John Hughes, his Madonna and Child statue which can be seen in Loughrea Cathedral. It is a photograph with interesting light and shadow. For a merry stamp there's the 50 yen Japan released Oct.

6 for International Letter-writing week. It reproduces a portion of Hoson's woodblock print called "Tokyo Horse showing the horse-drawn car beside a fast-moving riksha. Taiwan Nov. 16 will release five If North had bid a suit over West's doubly East's bid would have been "free" and shown values. Over a redouble, East's bid merely suggests a possible shelter in the forecasted storm.

West's bid of four hearts is, like walking alone in dark alleys. No wonder West was mugged.

Sun flecks reflecting on water in background appear as tiny circles of light. The inherent lack of depth of focus in the 500mm lens plus the angle of reflection causes the phenomenon.

Brenner Pass was the first mountain highway across the Alps linking the cold north and warm Mediterranean, and has been used since Roman days. Now the new highway, with 44 bridges at breath-taking heights, has been opened as a toll road.

Engineers from all over the world have been flocking to marvel at gigantic Euro-. pa Bridge, king of the bridges. Postmaster General Blount, unveiling next year's US philatelic program, has said we will be in for sets in order to do justice to some of the subjects.

under the auspices of -the Michigan chapter. Among honors won in competition during the four-day conclave were Princemen of Melrose (color guard); Beverly Cardi -als (small corps) and a clean sweep of percussion segments by the Boston Crusaders. In the latter, Charles Poole maintained his position as the top snare-drummer in the nation, turning back challengers from as far West as California and Oregon. The Pitts brothers were unbeatable in tenor drumming with Dan first in single drum and Paul ahead in double tenor. Mike Maniscalco posted the top score in rudimental drumming.

A major future Ail-American project is a clinic-seminar next March in the Hub area as a pre-sea-son aid to interested managers and instructors in digesting new Legion and judging procedures for 1972. To tie in with this judges situation above is an incident that took place Labor Day weekend in Syracuse, N.Y. The DCA-contest hosting Brigadiers, looking for a gimmick to give their show added fan appeal, weren't the slightest bit perturbed over any shortage of judges. In fact, they purposely created their own shortage in a literal "The Customer Is The Judge" affair. Game and willing to try anything new, the Hawthorne Caballeros, Hurricanes, Skyliners, Yankee Rebels and Sunrisers lined up after their routines had been presented.

They finished in the above-listed order on the strength of applause from the stands. Further attempts along this line are doubtful but BY South Pass No bid By me Content My lead?

More than 100 delegates fipm 28 states approved this proposal in a windup session to the national convention in Chicopee. rThe unprecedented action may resolve a problem that has been a thorn in the siye of drum corps expan-.

sion. jOver the past decade, a shortage of qualified judges has become increasingly acute. have been steadily mounting in number with a correspondingly heavier demand for judges. many cases, the scarcity of competent officials has forced units to compete before the same battery of judges most of the season itimport others from great distances and at great expense. Surveys reveal that several teen-agers of proven talent have been pressed into service in instructional capacities and have done extremely well.

3f they can teach, then why can't they judge was the question racing through delegate s' minds in Chicopee. jpaining entrance to the association must still follow" the familiar practice of joining the parent group first and then becoming eligible for the judging group.
