When the inntrli was over, South explained that he had gone in for deliberate iiiiderbidll:iig on this board because, with uoth oppon- ents bidd.iig and North passing. it had seeinrd that he might get doubled short or game an outcome that South gticluiilly hoped tor, otr rourse.

The other South felt that Northi might lack the wherewithal for any response to one heart mid yet that there might be a reasonable play for game. so he opened the bid- ding with two hearts and ended up in a heart game. Against that contract, West laid down the spade king. East overtook and returned the spade tour: VVest won and led a third round East ruffed with the jack or hearts, and this promot-l ed West's heart queen. Declarer was helpless.

The moral ii! any) seem: to be that the more you bid on some hands, the less you make, and vice Versa.

Canada lens Imports 0! British Sheep

OFITAWA, (CF) H Canada has banned imports of sheep from Bri- tain to prevent the spread of scrapie. It virus disease that at- lacks the animal's spinal cord.

The Canada Gazette said today the import ban will continue "until further notice."

Federal veterinarians explained that scrapie hits the animal's nerv- ous system, and makes the sheep feel so itchy that they would rather scratch against something than eat. The disease proves Intel in many cases.

The veterinarians said Canada usually imports several dozen choice sheep irom Britain for breeding purposes each year. but because the disease is reported to be spread- ing in Britain, it was decided to halt imports for an indefinite per- iod.
