I wonder if future Important ALOR STAR ILOILO events in bridge are not going to be ARISTSAR IPON the mixed events. In the recent HANOROX Eastern tournament, which has the BOMBAY largest entry of any of the major CALCUTTA tournaments, only 14 teams were DAWNTORE In the open team-of-four contest, CEDU while in the mixed team-of-four COLOMBO events 20 teams were entered.
'This goes
to prove that bridge, even in championship tournaments, Is at a social game. The strain in the mixed events is not as great
ns in the upens, either.

A very nice play was made by one pair in an attempt to defeat four hearts.
The Play
A diamond was opened, and was won with the nce. The king of spades was returned. West played the nine, and Easi refused to win.
A heart was played by declarer and won by Weat with the ace. A amall spade was returned, which East won with the ace, and the return of a spade was ruffed by West, holding the contract to four odd.
