But why hadn't Mr. Sharps bothered to bid luur no trump and find out for sur how nuuiy aces Mr. Dale had? The answer is easy. Mx. Sharp is one of those 'know-it-air players who disdain the use oX any artificial conventions. These people think tliey are so good they don't need to check up on aces. There are lots of such "great men of bridge." Sharpe knew very well that Mr. Dale had a sound opening bid but to save lace he had to lash out at somebody, so he sub ject Mr. uaie to considerable abuse. Mr Dale remained silent. But he thought. "This Sharpe can surely dish It out but I wonder If he can take it! Hmm or ""jc u nvc a tnance io iuv out before the night is" over." Ray Reflects and Reminisces stores closed.

Two compression chambers were employed. From one cham ber air was exhausted to stimulate atmospheric conditions existing at 60,000 feet.
