Victim of Bridge Game Had Good Hand
Kansas City October 1 P The bridge game which led to the fatal shooting of John G. Bennett by his wife was a one tenth of a cent per point affair. The hand that sparked the quarrel left the Bennetts losers by 20 cents over three hours of play. Bennett, western sales manager for a New York perfume firm, was shot after his wife called him a bum bridge player. She retrieved a gun from her mother's room and fired twice after he struck her. Witnesses recalled the set when Bennett bid four spades with an intervening bid of five diamonds and notes suggested he held six trumps including two honors. Police treated the case as a domestic tragedy with no further details released.
