LENZ AND JACOBY HAVE 1715 LEAD (Continued from Page One) was nothing sensational ln: handling of cords after the dummy was down. There were no brilliant feats such as end elimination plays- or squeezes.. The neutral referee. Lieutenant Al fred M. Gruenther, U. S. A., believed the play lacked lustre because of ner vousness: Experts noted no mlsplays worthy of Bpeclal comment. Twenty-three hands were played: First rubber, eight; second rubber three: third rubber twelve. At the end of the first rubber Lenz and Jacoby were 920vpolnts In the lead. This plus score Increased to 1610 when the sec ond rubber ended. The third rubber added 105 to the lead. Ienz Takes the Lead Lenz, who Is the "ace" of hi sys tem and Is acknowledged to be with out a superior as a player, led the quartet In fulfilling contracts, five of them. Jacoby and Mrs. Culbertson "made It" three times each and Cu bertAon once. Much argument developed over the second hand In which the Culbertsons contracted for five diamonds and Mrs. Culbertson was Bet four. The hand: Lenz (north). Spades A J 9 3 Hearts K Diamonds 10 8 ft 0 3 Clubs 8 5 3 Culberteon (west). Spades Blank ' Hearts A 9 8 3 2 Diamonds Q 4 2 Clubs K Q 9 8 7 Jacoby (south).

Culbortson one diamond; Jacoby ono spado; Cul berteon two spades; Lena pass; Mrs. Oulbertson three diamonds; Jacoby pass: Culbertson three hearts; Lcnz three Bpades; Mrs. Culbertson four hearts; Jacoby four spades; Culbert son five diamonds. Foiled to Double Lens explained his failure to double by fear that the CUlbertsons would revert to hearts, in which four could havo been made, but suggested the Culbertsons could havo gone little slam In clubs which they never bid. Lenz regarded Culbcrtson's overcnll In spades as a bit risky and Culbertson's rebldding of diamonds as. wholly un justified. In answer to the two spade bid of her partner, Lcnz thought Mrs. Oulbertson should have bid no trump. Which might have resulted in bidding of the clubs by her partner. Culbcrtson's followers regarded the fourth hand of the session us typical of the danger In . the predellctlQn of the "official" system for no .trump. Lenz played it at a contract of four no trump and was Bet two. Culbert- sonltes averred they would have ob tained a little slam in diamonds. They said the Intermediary two bid of the "official" system was at fault. The hand:. Lenz (north). Spades A 6 Hearts A Q , Diamonds A Q 40 0 G 3 2 Clubs 9 4 Culbertson (wost, dealer).

Mrs. Culbertson f holding Ja coby's hand would have shown the clubs and later assisted the diamonds and Culbertson finally would have bid six. BIG NAVY AND ARMY HELD AS I JOBLESS AID BATON ROUGE.
