McKenney on Bridge Old methods fall to modern play
A bridge column notes players now rarely rely on psychic bids or hope opponents misstep as in the past. It observes that the era of tricks being blown by errors has faded and modern play demands solid technique.

A bridge problem discusses whether to double a hand facing Souths bold four heart bid with vulnerable status. West overcalls two clubs and fears of trapping the king of spades. A sacrifice to five clubs is suggested, or leading clubs if North-South counterplay occurs, noting likely four hearts by South. A separate Clark’s Chapel social announces an ice cream supper on Friday July 23 at 6 p.m.
