Then? are five major changes lu scoring and many changes In penal ties for Infringement of the rules un der a code promulgated today by the Whist club of New York, the Portland club of London, and tho Commission Francalso du bridge. A committee of representatives of American bridge or ganizations Indorsed the changes, but If the commonts of some of them are any Indication, moves to havo a rep resentative American body make fu ture changes will bo Intensified. Here are the scoring changes: Undertrlcks 50 points penalty per trick not doubled and not vulner able; doubled and not vulnerable, loo for the first undertrlck, and an lit crease of 50 for each successive un dertrlck; vu!norablo and undoubted, same as doubled and not vulnerable; vulnerable and double, twice tho vul nerable underfilled.

Little slam pre miums remain 500 and 750. , Overtrlcks If onj is not doubled and makes more tricks Chan con true t eel for tho premium Is tho num- per or ovcriricKa multiplied by the suit value. That is if one contracted for threo spadea and made five, 60 would bo scored above the line In stead or tho 100 under tho old sys tem, Tho old premiums for doubled and redoubled overtrlcks aro retained. Premiums for exactly fulfilling doubled or redoubled contracts thebo aro abolished. The old rules provide 50 pointa premium for fulfilling a doubled not vulnerable contract, 100 for a doubled vulnerable contract, and 100 and 200 for redoubled con tracts. The new scoring for doubled and redoubled undertrlcks 1b golnrf to cause tho most difficulty for players to learn. Said Ely Culbertson: "Many players will object that It Is too diffi cult to remember and compute. I feel sorry for the hundreds of thousands of women who with the old (scoring got along pretty well with tho count on ten fingers and who now with tho new scoring will havo to take off their shoea to count on their toes aa well." Herewith is a formula for reason ably easy computation of tho total penalty for any number of doubled not vulnerable undertrlcks. Tako 2 and keep adding successive figures until one pa-Jt the number of tricks set. Multiply tho totul by 50. Tho re sult Is tho total penalty. For instance five down doubled and not vulnerable: 2 plus 3 plus 4 plus S plus 0 equalo 20. Multiply by 50 equals 1.000. the ATER. TH penalty for five down doubled and, not vulnerable and also for five dpwii vulnerable. , ,', Tho penalty for any particular -undertrlck doubled and not vulnerable ia 50 multiplied by a figure computed! by adding l to the number of xn trick. That is the penalty for the1 third undertrlck is 60 (3 plus 1) or 200. V ' The Wlilst club In effect upheld; psychic bidding by deciding notto ln crease the not vulnerable undoubted pcnaltlcj. To remove tho psychic pos sibility completely from, the game says its announcement, would take zeat and variety and make it too cut and dried. ' i Penalties for Infringements of the. laws, In tho view of the Whist club, havo been considerably ameliorated though Ely Culbertson thinks aomo of such penalties are a little blood thirsty. Heretofore tho partner of ft player who bid but of turn was de- barred from the auction. Now the op-i pouents of such-an offence may ball for a new deal. Players must have better memories In ono respect. No longer can on havo a frco look at a quitted trick. Also thcro Is a penalty for looking at one's cards while they aro being dealt. ( 111!
