CONTRACT BRIDGE
By W. E. McKenney
I was recently asked if I felt that most players abused "false- carding."
"This is a dimeult ques-' tion to answer as it all depends on what you torm false-carding.
When playing the defence. I be lieve a partner should be careful to give his partner as accurate Information as possible, while when playing the hand as declarer one should not false-card without a reason behind it. Here is an old false-carding play that recently came up in a rubber game, and the declarer was not alow to execute this play as it was the only way he could make his contract:
The Bidding
South opened the contracting with one no trump. While the hand has a biddable spade sult, it is rich in tenaces, strong in high cards, and therefore should be opened with one no trump, West passed and North responded with two diamonds, South went to two

I write to testify to the benefits 1 have received by taking Phosferine dur- ing my training for the 1981 Malayan Weight-Lifting Championships.
As I had to reduce some seven or eight pounds off my normal bodyweight in order to enable me to compete in the 9-stone class, I had to go into very strenuous training, and with the help of Phosferine, I not only won the cham- pionship of that class, but also the In- dividual Championship, and, in addition I broke a British Record,
I therefore have no hesitation in ro- commending Phosferine to any physical culturist or athlete, whether ho bo in ordinary training' or preparing for a competition, aa it

IS AN UPPER CYLINDER LUBRICANT NECESSARY ? Practically every mail from Home brings to us fresh evidence from our Principals, Messrs. C. C. Wakefield & Co., Ltd., that an Upper Cylinder Lubricant is no longer regarded as a luxury but is becoming an acknowledged necessity amongst conscientious motorists, aviators, and mechanical engineers.
Messrs. Wakefield after exhaustive tests have produced Castrollo, an Upper Cylinder Lubricant that reduces carbon formation, friction, wear and petrol consumption.
A quart tin of Castrollo costs only $5.00 and contains sufficient oil to treat 160 gallons of fuel which is a little over 3 cents a gallon. The cap on the tin is a half oz. measure for two, gallons of petrol.
The evidence above referred to is available for inspection here and consists of testimonials from ordinary motorists, racing experts, aviators, and big concerns such as Messrs. Henlys, Ltd., The Eastern Greyhound and The Pennsylvania Greyhound Omnibus Services controlling eighteen fleets totalling 850 vehicles, all reporting when using Castrollo an increase in petrol mileage, reduced carbon formation, prevention of sticky valves, reduced valve grinding and reduced running time on ́engiries after overhaul. Castrollo is stocked by The Poak Garage, Dodwell Motor Service Station, Duro Motor Car Co., South China Motor Car Co., East Point Carago, Hong- kang Motor Accessory, Alex. Ross & Co., Nathan Road Garage, Sincere Co., Ltd., etc., but if you have any trouble in getting supplies please give us a ring (21746) and we will give immediate attention to your requirements.
