Winning Contract
Bv THE FOUR ACES.
Ingenious Bidding
No method has so far been de
vised to cover all slam situations.
In particular, those in which one
player holds a tremendous freak
hand, which fits perfectly with his j
partner's require ingenuity more
than anything else in getting to the
right final contract.
South, dealer.
Both sides vulnerable.

Oswald Jacoby.
The bidding:
South. West. North. East.
1 V Pass 1 A Pass
2 A Pass 4 A Pass
6 A Pass 7 A Pass
Pass Pass
Since the opening lead could not
be ruffed, seven was, of course, a
laydown. Nevertheless, Mr. Jacoby
and Mr. Schenken felt quite proud
of themselves for having bid it. Of
course, if either East or West had j
been kind enough to stick in a dia- !
mond overcall, they would have i
made things easier. But East and
West happened to stay out of the
bidding.
Let us consider the bidding as a
whole. The first three bids were
normal. Then when Mr. Jacoby bid
two clubs, Mr. Schenken was quite
puzzled as to what to do. since he
feared that perhaps his partner was
making a fancy bid without clubs.
His jump to four clubs, which was
a forcing bid. at the same time al
lowed Mr. Jacoby to go out of clubs
at the four-level. However. Mr.
Jacoby surprised him by jumping to
six clubs—a bid fully warranted by
his fine hand. Now Mr. Schenken
revalued his hand and said to him
self: “Obviously my partner has a
fine hand, as is shown by his jump
to six. And yet he almost surely !
doesn't have the ace of diamonds
because if he had. he would probably
have shown it by bidding four dia
monds over four clubs. Therefore,
if he hasn’t the%ce of diamonds, he
ought to have both the other aces
and the king of clubs, which should
be enough for seven.” Hence Mr.
Schenken contracted for the grand
slam.

UNCLE RAY'S CORNER—Meaning of Dreams
For many centuries people have
been interested in dreams and have
wanted to know their meaning. All
sorts of guesses have been made,
but we seem to have come close to
the truth only in modern times.
Old-time “dream books” are filled
With lore about the meaning of cer
tain kinds of dreams. Here are a
few of the things they say, but
which I don't guarantee!
^‘If you dream of an anchor it
means travel. To dream of eating
bread means an accident. If a man
dreams he has a long beard he will
have good health.
‘ Birds in a dream mean good iui -
tune, and a brightly burning candle
means happiness. To eat cheese In
a dream means you are going to
make money.” And so on and so on!
I might give other odd ideas, but
let it be enough to add that there
are hundreds of old-time sayings
about what dreams mean. Scientists
say those old sayings aren't true.
More than 50 years ago Dr. Sig
mund Freud began careful studies
of the mind in action. He worked
to find facts, not fancies.
Freud gave special study to
dreams. He asked hundreds of his
patients in Vienna and Paris what
they had dreamed, and then tried
to figure the true meaning of the
dreams.
SIGMUND FREUD.
Many of Freud’s patients were
deeply worried, and some were on
the border line of going insane. The
doctor found ways to help them, and
In certain cases met with great suc
cess.
At the same lime other physicians
and scientists worked on problems
of the same kind. These others in
cluded Carl Jung of Switzerland and
Alfred Adler of Austria.
We cannot in a few words tell
much of what those men came to
—. m..-.. . -It___
believe about dreams, but this is
perhaps the main point they have
made: “Dreams express the wishes
of people, also their fears."
Modern scientists may have helped
to find the true meaning of most
dreams, but they have done little to
explain the so-called “prophetic
dream.” Cases are known of peo
ple who dreamed about things be
fore they happened. This may have
been by accident or the mind ditring
sleep may clearly work out what
was likely to happen.
Some persons do not need an
alarm clock to awaken at a certain
time in the morning. On going to
bed they may say to themselves, “I
want to wake up at a quarter past
7," and in the morning open their
eyes at just that time.
