CONTRACT BRIDGE

By W: E. McKenney

I have often noticed that bridge beginners are too anxious to cash their nees and kings. They will not take a fincase, and after they learn what a finesse is all about, they tako altogether too many finesses.

A finesso is a necessary part of the play of the hand, but don't take 'what may prove to be a losing finesse if there is any safer possible way to play the hand.

I received the following interest- ing hand from Mr. T. W. Connors of Niles, Ohio, who writes that he believea fow players could make seven spades on the hand How- ever, I am quite sure that many of my renders can make the grand slam if they don't become careless. The Bidding.

stopped, and due to his tenace in diamonds and hearts, he can make constructive response of two no trump, which does not deny spade support.

***North" will make a constructive bid of three clubs, South can now show his diamond suit by bidding three diamonds. North shows a fit In diamonds by responding with four diamonds.

South should bid five spades and North will carry the contract to six spudes. South would be justi- fied in going to seven spades na the odds are in his favour.

The Piny

When East opens the jack of hearts, declarer must refuse the finesse, go right up with the ace, discard diamond from his own hand, take two rounds of clubs and then ruff the five of clubs in dum-

my.

Declaror must run down all his spades and then lead his good jack of clubs. This will bring him down to three diamonds in his hand, and the king and jack of diamonds and the queen of hearts in dummy

West will be squeezed. He enn- not protect the queen of diamonds and hold the king of hearts, so the declarer makes his contract.---

GAOL CONGESTION

HUNDRED MEN RELEASED

OVER WEEK-END

The congestion of prisoners al Victorin Gaol is becoming more acuto daily.

Over the week-end. a total of one hundred prisoners, all serving various terms of less than twelve months, were released.

They are all scheduled for banishment from the Colony, and in the ordinary course of events would have been deported at the expiration of their terms, but the present congestion is hastening their departure..

On Saturday twenty passed out of the prison gates, and to-day, the remaining eighty will be re- leased. They are all to be banish- ed forthwith.

EUROPEAN COUPLE

VICTIMISED.

The Police on the mainland dur- ing yesterday were scouring the countryside around a bridge on the Talpo main road, near which Mr. G. A. Nicholls, an assistant engineer employed at the generat- ing station of the China Light & Power Company at-Talwan;---to- gether with a friend, Miss Daphne Hamblin, elder daughter of Mr. F. Hamblin, also of the China Light & Power Company, were robbed by gunmen.

Mr. Nicholls was robbed of a

his gold signet ring, bearing Initials and worth $25, while his companion had to hand over H diamond ring, purchased at Mesars, Falconer's and valued at about -$400 and a string of pearls.

men

After the coup, the three implicated in the hold-up, made a successful get-away in the direc- tion of Kowloon.

Accompanied by Miss Hamblin, Mr. Nichols had been out motor- ing to Taipo, and shortly after 1 B.m. yesterday, was returning, to Kowloon.

On the main road, one and a quarter miles from the junction of Lalchikok Road, he had slowed down, and what happened after- wards has been detalled by Mr. Nicholls in his statement to the Police..

He says that three Chinese ap- peared down the hillside and walked across the road to where he and hla companion had stopped, They

were completely surprised by the men holding revolvers to their heads, and after being warned, made no resistance when being robbed of their jewellery.

The shortest of the three men; it is stated, took hold of Miss Ham- blin's Jewellery, which included the platinum ring, set with threo diamonds, which she had on her Anger.

Within a few minutes, the meri left their victims, warning them against any attempt at pursuit.--

The men were armed with what appeared to be revolvers of an antiquated pattern," They each also carried a torch. Their total haul amounted to a value of $435.
