CONTRACT BRIDGE
WRITTEN FOR CENTRAL PRESS
By E. V. SHEPARD
Famous Bridge Teacher
RUBBER AND DUPLICATE
DIFFER
PRAYERS, unfamiliar with both
rubber bridge and duplicate bridge,
must be unaware of many of the
finer distinctions between the bidding
strategy, also sometimes the play, of
the two. Duplicate bridge has two
different methods of scoring: cumu
lative scoring includes the values of
honors held, as in rubber games,
while match point scoring does not
include honor values. With the deal
shown today, provided my partner,
C. E. Norwood, could win as many
tricks at no trumps, as I could at
one or the other major suit call, he
would play no trumps, to obtain the
added 10 points for the tirst no trump
trick. With cumulative scoring he
would play the hand at diamonds,
because the added honor score would
more titan counterbalance the greater
trick score of a major suit call. Be
cause we were playing match point
scoring it was his duty to help me
to play a major suit call, if the same
number of tricks could be won as at
diamonds.
Os course there are many other
differences between rubber and dupli
cate bridge, such as bidding for a
very small score in the latter game,
or doubling when able to defeat a
low contract even a single trick. More
than in rubbers, duplicate urges bold
tactics when behind and conserva
tism when ahead. When the deal
shown appeared, we were pushing
hard for top scores on deals. Later
we were far enough ahead to take
no chances on doubtful iiands, mere
ly playing for safe averages, to win
top score for the session.
Diet for Maintaining
Reducer's Weight Given
By LOGAN CLENDENING, M. D.
I DISCUSSED yesterday once more
the subject of emergency diet for
rapid reducing. After that is accom
plished, however, there is a second
dtage-t he

diet. Os fa r
greater impor
tance than the
initial reduction
Is to hold the
Ideal weight.
This mainte
nance diet is a
much more dif
ficult thing to
plan than the
emergency re
ducing diet. In
the first place.
It requires skill

clal diet over a
long period of time and still keep It
balanced. And in the second place,
the tradition of cooking has for years
been built up in a direct antagonism
to reducing diihes. There is hardly
a recipe in the ordinary cookbook
that does not use fat in the form of
either butter or cream, and flour for
sauces. Olive oil for salad dressing
is another instance. All the vege
tables and meats which are listed as
of low calorie, non-fattening nature,
are the very ones for which the cooks
have instinctively thought up a rich
butter sauce or gravy,
The reducer, in eating his favorite
foods, must insist that if they, are
cooked in fat. they must be rinsed
for a moment In hot salt water be
fore serving. He must also insist
that sauces be made without the
large amounts of butter, flour and
cream ordinarily ordered. The cook
will say that this cannot be done;

Bidding went: North, 1-Diamond,
third hand; South, 1-Spade, not
knowing whether or not partner
sought a part game score; North. 3-
Diamonds, urging more bids from me,
if able: South, 4-Hearts, showing ’wo
fair suits passed; North, 4-Spades,
to shift to the suit first shown, vvhidh
might or might not be better; South,
5-Spades; North, 6-Spades, as both
of us were pushing for tops. West
doubled.
The opening lead was the K of
ciu'os. Dummy’s Ace won. The Ace
and K of diamonds won the nest two
tricks, enabling mo to rid my hand
of its second club Then T was for
tunate enough to make the play
which gave us our contract and top
on the hand, nobody else having
bid or made a small slam on it. The
2 of spades was led. East played the
8. showing the probability that part
ner held the 4 and 7, with the only
chance for a slam to finesse the J.
Then the Ace of spades flicked up
East’s K. Dummy’s Q captured
West’s 10. All we had to lose was
to the Ace of hearts.

and it must be acknowledged It !■
not as delicious as the rich sauces,
but still is palatable.
Example of Diet
As an example of a Lucullan one
day maintenance diet of low calorio
value, I submit the following:
BREAKFAST: (1) Grapefruit. toaAt
and black coffee: or (2) toast and a
cup of coffee with milk and sugar.
LUNCHEON: One cup clam juice
(hot or cold); ham jardin (as per
recipe): glass buttermilk: lettuce sal
ad with mineral oil dressing.
Recipt for Ham Jardin: Take a*
many slices of cold boiled ham, sliced
very thin (the round ham makes a
more attractive dish) as needed Sep
arate the floweret tes of a cooked
cauliflower, and some diced beets,
diced carrots, shredded string beans.
Toss all the vegetables in mineral oil
mayonnaise. Place the mixture on
the slices of ham and form into cor
nucopia shape and fasten with a
skewer or toothpick. Serve on a let
tuce leaf.
DINNER: One cup beet soup fas
per recipe): One-half broiled chicken;
asparagus (golden spread in place of
butter); prune whip (as per recipe).
Recipe for Beet Soup: Take the
juice of a small can of beets, and an
equal amount of hot water, and twice
the amount of beet juice of consom
me. Cook together. Add a few diced
beets. Garnish with a spoonful Os
whipped sour cream
Recipe for Prone Whip: One-half
pound prunes, cook and put through
a grinder to pulp; one-half cup
ground almonds; one-half teaspoon
lemon juice; five egg whites, beaten
very stiff; two grains saccharin
crushed. Mix all together. Put mix
ture lightly imo a buttered baking
dish and bake 20 minutes.
