S i Winning Contract By THE FOUR ACES. Crime Doesn't Pay! No. 1 We begin today a series of hands to be given every Wednesday. The bidding and play will be dealt with briefly, and then it will be up to you to decide who committed the crime—or, to be more exact, who made the bridge blunder. Here’s the first of the series: South, dealer. Neither side vulnerable. A K 5 A Q J 0 K 9 8 2 A 8 7 4 3 A J 9 8 7 2 A Q 10 3 8 4 N V 10 9 6 3 0 Q 10 6 W-t-E 2 A A 5 2 S 0743 A K 6 A A 6 4 K 7 5 0 A J 5 A Q J 10 9 The bidding: South West North East 1A Pass 10 Pass 1NT Pass 3NT Pass Pass Pass West opened the spade seven, dummy ducked, and East's queen was allowed to hold. The ten of spades knocked out dummy's king, and dummy's club lead went to West's ace. West led a third round of spades. South winning with the ace. Declarer now knocked out the king of clubs and, since East was unable to get the lead to his partner, South made nine tricks without further trouble. Now get out your magnifying glass and solve the crime. Who made the fatal error? Decide for yourself before reading the next paragraph. East is the culprit! When dummy led a low club at the third trick. East should have clattered up with the king! Then East could have forced out South's last spade stopper while West still had the ace of clubs as entry to the rest of the spades. A little thought will show that East's king of clubs is worthless unless his partner also has a high club, so East can lose nothing by playing the king. * * * * Yesterday you were vulnerable against non-vulnerable opponents, and, as dealer, vou held: A K 10 S Q 3 2 * A K Q J 10 9 8 3 Answer: Bid one club. It is bad tactics to pre-empt when you have better than average high-card strength. Score 100 per cent for one club. 40 per cent for a pre-empt, 30 per cent for pass. Question Xo. 465. You are Oswald Jacoby's partner and vulnerable against non-vulner able opponents. You hold: A — C A K 7 4 O A K 6 5 4 A 7 6 5 2 The bidding: Jacoby Burnstone You Maier 1* 10 (?) What do you bid?

Unc’ Billy Possum lost no time in getting over to the dead tree in the Green Forest, where Jimmy Skunk had seen the stranger go to roost for the night. Unc’ Billy wanted to get there before the stranger had gone to sleep, for if it | really was his old friend Ol’ Mis , tah Buzzard, as Unc’ Billy felt ■ sure it was. he had just got to say “Howdy” that very night. Now Unc' Billy is seldom caught napping, so, though he was very sure that this was his old friend, he didn’t intend to run any risk of furnishing a good suppor for a hungry hawk. So, as Unc’ Billy drew near the dead tree, he crept up very still and carefully until aI BO (Bo is just as interesting—just os human-in the colored comic section of The Sunday Star.) gy Prank Beck / DON’T RUN AWAY, \ PRINCESS—STICK ' AROUND AND LET'S S PLAY TOGETHER.

He was dressed In sooty black, and he sat like an old man, his head drawn down and his shoulders hunched up. His head was bald and wrin kled. Unc’ Billy took one good look and then he let out a whoop that made the stranger sttetch out-his long and begin to grin in pleased sur prise. J. "Hello, Ol’ Mistah Buzzard I Where'd you all come from?’’ shout ed Unc’ Billy Possum. “Ah reckon Ah done come stright from the,sunny souf, an’ Ah reckon this is the lonesomest land Ah ever done seen. A’m go ing straight back where Ah come from. What yo’ all staying up here fo’ anyway, Unc’ Billy?” Unc’ Billy grinned. "Ah’m staying because Ah'done like it here mighty well end Ah reckon that yo’ all is going to like it mighty well, too,” replied Unc’ Billy. Mistah Buzzard shook his head. “All day Ah done try to make friends and every one done run away. Ah don’t understand it, Unc’ Billy. Ah cert’nly don’t under stand it at all.” Mr. Buzzard shook his head sorrowfully. Unc’ Billy’s wits are sharp, and he had guessed right away what the trouble was. So he explained right away what the trouble* was. X \ So he explained to Mistak Buzzard how he had been mistaken for a fierce hawk, and that was the reason the Green Meadows had been so lonely was because all the little meadow people had been hid ing and shivering with fear as they had watched Ol’ Mistah' Buzzard sailing round in the sky. Pretty soon Ol’ Mistah Buzzard began to see the joke. There he had been sailing round and round in the sky and growing lonesomer for > some one to talk to, and ther* down below him had been the very ones he wanted to make friends with, every one of them frightened most to death because they mis took him for a hawk. Mistah Buz zard began to chuckle, and then ho began to laugh. "Ah reckon AhTl have to stay a day or two just to see if yo’ all is right,” said he. "Ah reckon you’ all will,” replied Unc’ Billy Possum, And Ol’ Mistah Buzzard did. 0 I
