This deal occurred in the recent open pairs event oi’ the East on Tournament. and at one table. where all of the players -were sup»-

posed to be experts, the bidding proceeded:

_ I-18! East South West North Pass 1 9 Pass (E) Page 2 .5 Dble. Pass 2 9 Pass Pass Dble. (!) Pass Pass Pass

Undoubtedly, the bids sometimes

gust players who simply go in fur’ a. good, sound game of contract bridge. and there .s l.ttle doubt the .-

the bidding just recorded will pI\'- duce this effect on readers of this report. It is no part oi this observ- ers' duty to try to excuse the Imb- les oftoumament players. but, by way oi’ explanation, West was un- doubtedly trying to trap south i1 he reached too‘ high a contract. Wile”- as East, in reopening the bidding alter North's pass. was simply 3°‘-"5! in for some desperate ‘u mliﬁl-m0"I«’

Particularly since the East-west pair was also vulnerable. it is in‘- possible to excuse the action of eith- er player, but the bid that capped the climax was West's “ 01 W0 hearts! The "trap" he had laid in the iirst place was extremely ﬂimsy. and even though North coniesscri dire weakness by refusing to hold the heart bid open. West himself had nothing resembling the tricks for a double!

The lucky North-south tenrn earned a "top" on this board that was far beyond comparison! West opened the diamond king. and when he saw East's nine. laid down the diamond ace in hope that East bind a’ singleton. He then shiited to a club. but south won. cashed the heart ace, then led a. low heartl The

result was that south made '£'ICI points!

little Bnailulie lowered his stalked eyes. then raised them again.

“Do it again," said Peter. "I love to see you do that."

"You said you Worry plenty." said Mrs. Peter. "What do you wor- ry about?"

“Probably about nothing. What can he have to worry about? Ii 1 had a. strong. sale house I could carry around with me. and get into and close the door the instant there was danger, I am sure I wouio never worry," Peter broke in beicre stalkeye could reply to Mrs. Peter

“Do Cows ever come in here?" asked the little Snail.

‘No indeed. I should hope not " cried Peter.

"That's good. I'm glad 01 that. Yes, sir, I'm glad of that. Now I'll have one less worry while I'm here. I think I'll stay a while. I hope hope you don't mind," said stalkv

"We don't mind. we'll be glad to have you stay, won't we. Peter?" said little Mrs. Peter. .

‘'01 course.’ said Peter, nodd his head. “You show good sense. Btalkeye. There is no place like tlxe dear Old Brisr Patch. But what is this about Cows? Cows won't hurt anyone."

The little Snail pushed his eyes up as high as he could and loolica around anxiously. “were you ever stepped on by a Cow?" he asked.

Peter chuckled. "I'd like to see a co try to step on me," said he. I-is c idn't imagine being stepped on by a cow. He couldn't imagine being stepped on by anyone. "No- body steps on me. No. sir. noboviy steps on me. It you are afraid some- , one is going to step on you Just jump out 01 the way," said he.

"With only one loot?" asked the little Snail.

Peter suddenly felt very ioolisii. “Oh. I forgot," said be.

"And with my house on my back?" added the little snail.

Peter looked still more foolish and, Mrs. Peter grinned. “Peter is good at-forgetting." said she. “You needn't iesr being stepped on here We'll be careful, and-.there is no one else in the dear old Briar Patch big enough to step on you. Have you.'any otho; worries?"

"The weather," replied Stalk- eye. "I don‘t mean I worry about :i. all the time. I don't. That would be ioolish. But in dry weather, the kind oi weather we often get in summer. I do worry. I can't help it. Do you worry about the weath- er?"

"Sometimes, mostly in wint-.r," admitted Mrs. Peter.

"I don't worry then. I don't know anything about winter. Sensible

folks sleep through the winter. Why don't you?" said Stslkeye. '

"sometimes I wish I could," rs- piied Mrs. Peter. 1

“Huh! Don't be iooiish." exclaim- ed Peter.
