BRIDGE NOTES

A Redouble With A Moral.

by Ely Culbertson,

THE CHINA MAIL.

Grins in Face of Justice

Ancient story-tellers made 3 practice of always appending a moral like a post-script at the end of their tales. The moral of the story might be tite, but at least in the opinion of the story-teller it was true. I am not at all sure but that! the ancient story-tellers had a very good idea and one that even master Bridge players might frequently apply to their own great profit. The! moral of this story is short and sweet. It is: When you are doubled by an opponent, do not re- double unless a penalty as great or greater than the premium you can, make is in sight.

The hand which brings forth this homily was played in the Experts'! Room at Crockford's Club, New York, and the offenders were two very fine players-no less than my old team-mate Waldemar Yon Zedtwitz and that extremely psychologist, Raymond Balfe.
