It is a vivid and colorful drama of Russia just previous to and following the revolution. The theme is developed from a human interest angle relating the adventures of a prince who loves a girl of the lower classes. The fortunes of the revolution make these two change placeB, and when the girl gets the upper hand she makes life miserable for Lady the prince, who she believes has wronged her. Lya de Iutti has the role of the revolutionist, and in it she rises to great heights. Her love scenes with Don Alvarado as the prince are exceptionally well handled. Alvarado is every inch a prince and a perfect lover. Warner Oland has the character of a revolutionist in love with Lya and suspicious of the prince.

ARTICLE No. 6 It has been said of a sound preemptive or shut-ou- t bid that if defeated it saves game at small expense by preventing the opponents from showing the suit that would have produced game between the combined hands. This principle is well illustrated by the following hand: Heart Q, J.7,6,2 Clubs none Diamonds 9, 7, 3 Spades A, 8, 5,4,3 : t A i T Hearts A, K, 9, 5 Club K.J.9 Diamonds K, Q, J K, Q, J Spades B Z No score, rubber game. Z dealt, bid to defeat the five club bid more than a trick or so. five clubs and A and Y passed. B was in a peculiar position. The bid of five clubs undoubtedly indicated a freak hand, particularly in view of the many apparent tricks m Bs hand. He was hardly strong enough, however, to bid five hearts and yet his hand was too strong to pass. The five club bid looked Hire a trap, but B had no option except to double. Z passed and A should have bid five hearts. He should have made this bid rather than five spades, so that he could shift to five spades if the five hearts were doubled. His hand is badly distributed as a trick taker, particularly in view of Z's five club bid. Therefore A should have figured that if B had a sound double, they would stand a good chance to make five hearts or five and rubber. nodes and so score On the other hand, couldnt hope Unfortunately, however, A didn't properly consider these facts. He passed. Z played the hand at five clubs doubled and made a little slam. His hand was as follows: Hearts none Clubs A, Q, 10, 8, 7, 5, 3 Diamonds A, 10, 8, 6, 5, 2 none Spades All that he lost was one club trick as his partner, Y, had a singleton diamond and three trumps. Be on the lookout when your oppobids and nents make these shut-odont let them save game at a small expense or prevent you from bidding your suit if you feel justified in doing so. A B could have made five odd in no trump or a little slam in hearts, so Zs preemptive bid, in this instance, was a big winner. ut Answer to Problem No. 8 Hearts K, 7, 6, 2 Clubs Q, J, 9, 6 Diamonds K, 7, 4 Hearts Q. 9.4 Clubs 5, 3, 2 Diamonds J, X0l 8, 6, 5 8, 3 Spades Q, Spades J Y Clubs K, 10,8.7 Diamonds A, Q, 9, 3 B Z Hearts Spades- -7, T, 5 or Z can lead a club and make two club tricks in Ys hand. Z can now force B in the lead by playing the three of hearts from his hand and the seven of hearts from Ys hand. B must win this trick with the ten of hearts. After B plays the ace of hearts, he must lead clubs up to Y's hand, thus giving Z game and rubber. Note that B could have foreseen this force play and prevented it by discarding the ten of hearts. As nine of hearts would, therefore, have prevented Z from forcing the lead in Bs hand. This problem was given to show how to take advantage of an opponents mistake. Some of the best plays made are possible because an opponent gives the opportunity; so if you get the chance, take advantage every time.
