Highly distributional hands
are potentially explosive.
Fiercely competitive auc-
tions often precipitate guess-
: Ing at game and slam levels.
Which side is bidding to fulfill
and which is sacrificing?
Here experience is precious
coin.
Even without competition
danger lurks. Fits are diffi-
cult to assess. Primary and
secondary controls - aces,
kings, singletons and voids -
are mandatory. There are
other considerations as well.
The opening lead may be dev-
astating. With a choice of two
suits available, side suit
vulnerability may determine
which is selected as the
trump suit.
Today's freak hand illus-
- trates the difficulty of reach-
ing the maximum contract
~_'without interference. It came
"up at a rubber bridgeF game
.where strong two -bids were
in use. North's two-diamppnnd
:response showed some valhes
Atm) no-trump would have
been the negative reply).
South could not cope with
his • bidding problems. He
wanted to know whether to
stay out of slam, bid six or
seven. The Blackwood
inquiry (four no-trump)
which he employed was un-
likely to provide the neces-
sary information. South was
searching for three key
cards. For a grand slam
' North needed the ace of dia-
mq�onds and either, the king of
diamonds orthe queen of
spades. •
The • diamond ace or the
spade queen would suffice for
a small slam. Additionally, a
doubieton spade would take
the place of the queen if North
held a cuffing value.
North-South were hand-
cuffed in their bidding style.
What they required was some
form of asking bid alien to un-
practiced partnerships. With-
. in the given conditions at the
rubber bridge table a 'series
of cue bids would probably
- have kept declarer out of
seven clubs.
There is only one legitimate
way to set the grand slam.
An opening lead of the king
of diamonds destroys all hope
- for- declarer by cutting com-
munications with dummy at
trick one. A spade must even-
tually be lost. West should
give serious thought to this
_ lead! With diamondsbid at
his left and an obvious heart
void on his right he may be
caught in a squeeze if he must
protect both red suits. Be-
sides, if dummy holds the ace

and queen the king is finess-
able.
Success for declarer will
crown the lead of a trump.
West must hold three spades
and the heart ace pitching
both diamonds as declarer's
clubs are run. East keeps the
jack and another diamond
and discards his hearts.

On the last club West
throws the diamond king,
East and North low spades.
Now West will be squeezed in
hearts and spades when
South plays the diamond
queen.
When the hand was played
West led the diamond six
hoping to stampede declarer
into refusing the finesse.
After considerable delibera-
tion declarer let it ride to his
queen. A low club to the ten
allowed him to discard a
spade on the ace of diamonds.
Declarer's alternative, at
trick one, would have been to
play for a doubleton spade
queen. ' This would have
failed.

ONTARIO SMALL TOWN
AMBITIOUS TO BE
ANTIQUE HEADQUARTERS
The picturesque town of Carle-
ton Place (pop. under 5,000) could
become the antique Mecca of On-
tario if the local antique dealers
have their way.
According to leading dealer
Barbara Angell, it has several
points in its favor.
"It's very quaint," she says,
"and there are a lot of heritage
homes here ... the area has deep
roots."
She believes there's an ever -
rising demand tor antiques be-
cause of the high quality and good
workmanship built into the furni-
ture of long ago - particularly
among young married couples
setting up their first homes.
Price appears to be no object:
At a recent public sale, a pre -
Confederation bird's-eye maple
table was sold for $885, a shelf -
stand of the 1820s for $425, and a
"mourning brooch" circa 1786 for
$350. The brooch contained a lock
of hair from the woman in me-
mory of whom it had been made.
Carleton Place has eight flour-
ishing antique shops - and they
do not compete with one another.
"You're not going to see some-
thing in my shop that's also
somewhere else," Mrs. Angell
points out, "and if people like
something, they usually buy it, no
matter what. If you want some-
thing I haven't got and I know
who does have it, I'll tell you
where you can get it. We help
each other out."

If you're really good at it, you
could get an award for blowing
your nose these days! Or so it
seems! Last Friday night, in an
attempt to be funny, Roger Miller
sarcastically remarked that the
Academy of Country Music
Awards was joining all 'the other
award shows'. He may have been
referring to the fact that the
country music awards were
already in Nashville last month.
If you are waiting for an
•explanation, forget it! Yours
truly is as much in the dark as
everyone else about all the aiivard
shows. I would guess that the
Nashville awards are perhaps
based on sales throughout North
America while the Academy
awards are voted by members of
a special academy and are thus
treated more royally, a la Holly-
wood .
The proceedings all took place
in Tinseltown with Miller as host.
A host he ain't, let's face it. You
can take the boy out of the coun-
try and put a tux on him and
make him look citified, but you
shore cain't take the country
outta the boy! The show got off to
one slo« start Vl ith t picas coun-
try corn that I thought was going
to be the run-of-the-mill for the
entire show. Thank goodness it
wasn't!
Unlike the Academy of Motion
Picture Arts and Sciences, which
gives you hardly a glimpse of the
motion picture stars you so badly
want to see, the Academy of
Country Music. showed the
country music stars --- people like
Loretta Lynn, Donna Fargo,
Marty Robbins and Johnny Rod-
riguez. They showed so much of
them, in fact, that they only had
time to present five awards.
Again this year, Loretta Lynn'
was named the top female vocal -

ist, defeating Donna Fargo, Anne
Murray, Olivia Newton -John and
Dolly Parton to win the honor.
Top male vocalist of the year was
Merle Haggard. His competition
came from John Denver who
should have won, Cal Smith,
Ronnie Milsap and Conway
Twitty. Denver did win, though,
for the best album, "Back Home
Again".
The Song of the Year was a
toss-up among "I Can Help" by
Billy Swan; "One Day at a Time"
by Kris Kristofferson; "Back
Home Again" by Denver;
"Things Aren't Funny Anymore"
by Merle Haggard and "Country
Bumpkin" by Don Wayne.
'Bumpkin' was named the win-
ner.
Mac Davis was named the
Entertainer of the Year and took
the am and away from Milsap.
Haggard, Loretta Lynn amtRoy
('lark.
I thought they had some odd
choices in the list of presenters.
People like Adrienne Barbeau of
"Maude" and Christopher
George and his wife, Linda Day
George, do not really have all
that much of a connection with
country music. But then, they
didn't ask me!
Anyway, if you're a country
music fan, the show was probably
a highlight for you with Lynn
coming across with the tear-jerk-
ers, Fargo slapping her thighs to
the tune of a revival gospel song
and Robbins emoting through all
the nominated songs. Through all
the phases of music - rock and
roll to the present day, country
music is one of the few brands
that has remained intact -- har-
mony and melody with a
message. And I guess that's what
- most people want from their
music.
