All Paas Opening lead: Heart eight. ' West opened the eight of hearts, and East won with the ace. East returned the queer) of hearts and announced " Check." ■’ This term, used in chess, means: "Your king is about to be captured. Save your king or resign.” It certainly applied in this case. If South played the king of hearts. West would ruff. And what would South do with the rest of his small hearts? He couln’t ruff them In dummy, since West couldn’t overruff. And South couldn’t eat the small hearts, for his opponents were watching him too closely. Fortunately, chess players are resourceful types. "Check, but not checkmate,” South de clared. And he played a small heart at the second trick. - Queen Wins East’s queen of hearts won the second trick, somewhat to - his surprise. He returned to the attack by leading the 10 • of hearts. South played low again, and West ruffed with the six of spades to shut out dummy’s trumps. But now the defenders were all washed up. They could not capture South’s king. No matter what West re turned, South could draw trumps. And then South could safely cash the king of heard and his other high cards to make sure of the game coiF> tract.

Don’t make a shutout bid in first or second position when you have full values, for a normal opening bid of one in a suit. (Copyrirht. 1861, Gen. Features Corp.) FAMOUS FABLES B, E. E. EDGAR REALISM: Ludwig n, the; mad King of Bavaria, was' an admirer of Composer! Richard Wagner. When" Wagner expressed a wish for! a theater of his own. King ‘ Ludwig had one built for! I him in Bayreuth. Wagner had some pretty fanciful notions about how an opera should be pre sented, but King Ludwig went him one better, report Irene Gass and Herbert Weinstock in “Through an Opera Glass.” "King Ludwig, who was steadily becoming more and. more mad, liked to have op eras performed in a theater empty but for himself. And he could not bear noise. The> scene shifters had to ‘go; about without shoes, and the performance generally be-! gan at midnight, when most people wanted to get to. sleep. t "But he had worse whims than these. When there was a storm in a play, he liked to have real rain, not the stage variety. The actors and i actresses might be soaked to the skin and the costumes ruined, but Ludwig would clap his hands in delight when the deluge descended." —By Carl Grubert —By Walt Disney
