Our old friend the two-way guess
for the missing queen is in again
today. This type of misguess is re
sponsible for more heartaches at
the bridge table than almost any
other single source. Sometimes the
misfortune may be charged up to
hard luck; at other times it is due
to the declarer making the wrong
percentage play. When the location
of the missing card can be deter
mined beyond the peradventure of
a doubt and the guess entirely elim
inated, then, of course, the declarer
has no one but himself to blame for
failure.
Thi bidding in today's hand was
routine and West opened the 10 of
clubs in response to his partner's
bid. The king and ace were cashed
and the third round ruffed by West
who led the six of hearts. This was
won by declarer, who then extracted
trumps in four rounds. Everything
now depended upon guessing who
had the queen of diamonds. De
clarer elected to lead first to the
king and then returned the jack.
When East showed out the jig
was up.
His partners rightful scorn found
vent in an outspoken manner. “You
must have known that West had a
basketful of diamonds. East has
shown up with five clubs and four
spades and has followed to a heart.
He must be very short in diamonds.*
“I suspected that." was South’!
reply, “but I was afraid I might
lose to a doubleton queen. East
might have had it as part of his
bid and I usually follow my hunch
that the queen generally lies over
the jack.”
Declarer’s argument lacked sound
ness. In the first place possession
of a doubleton queen in the suit
adversely bid would hardly Influence
a player in making an overcall. In
the second place, he could have
ascertained to a certainty how many
diamonds East held by a very simple
expedient. He should have led to
the ace of hearts and East would
have followed suit. That would
account for 11 of his cards. Now
dummy's remaining heart should be
ruffed (needlessly to be sure) and
when East followed to this trick he
would be known to have only one
more red card in his hand. The
play of the ace of diamonds first
would show what card it was and
the finesse of dummy’s 10 could be
taken with absolute assurance.

Take My Word for It
By FRANK COLBY.
What About "Ain't?"
Q. I am in despair over my failure
to stamp out "ain’t” among my Eng
lish students. Will you please Col
by-ize the word? Perhaps they’ll
take your word for it.—Mrs. T. M.
Answer: First of all, "ain’t” is a
corruption of the obsolete contrac
tion "a'n’t” for "am not.” ‘‘A'n’t”
was pronounced "ahnt” or ‘‘ant."
For some reason now unknown,
"a n’t” disappeared, having been su
perseded by the form "ain’t,” a non
sensical contraction, since there is
no such phrase as ”ai not.”
"Ain’t” for "am not” is bad enough
jin any event—the dictionaries stig
matize it as “dialectal” or "illit
erate.” “But "ain't” approaches
the barbarous when it is used for
"are not, is not. has not.” and “have
not,” as: "I ain't going; he ain’t go
ing; you ain’t going; he ain’t gone;
they ain't gone.”
"Ain’t,” in careless speech, has be
come a monstrous word-of-all-work
that is as meaningless as it is er
roneous.
Equally erroneous, and quite as
hard to stamp out, is the contrac
tion “aren't” when used with the
pronouns I. he, she and it.
“Aren't I?” is a British colloquial
ism introduced into this country'by
American writers who fatuously tje
lieved that “I am, aren't I?” is ved
dy, veddy social register.
“Aren’t I?” continues to smirk at
us from stories and novels written
in “society” English. And writers
of radio plays and movie scenarios
had as soon be caught in public in
their underclothes as to turn out a
single opus without a liberal use of
“Aren’t I?” and “Don't feel badly
about it.”
