Diamonds Are Best Friend In College Bridge Hand
North opens seven spades against Q11093 and 19. The overcautious South leads a trump to dummy, cashes diamonds, ruffs hearts, and draws trumps until exhausted. South cannot regain his hand after a diamond finesse, eventually down two. The bidding suggests two clubs with a plan to raise spades later, signaling 11 or 12 points.

John Goldfarb Please Come Home at Palace Theater
A caustic review condemns John Goldfarb Please Come Home at the Palace Theater as tasteless dull and vulgar. It singles out Twentieth Century Fox producer Steve Parker director Lee Thompson and writer William Peter Blatty while praising Leon Shamroy’s color photography and Jaye P. Morgan’s song finale. The piece argues the film harms Notre Dame’s reputation and mocks performances by Shirley MacLaine Peter Ustinov Richard Crenna Jim Backus Scott Brady Fred Clark Harry Morgan Wilfrid Hyde-White and others. It also notes the comedy’s implausible plot about a Jewish U2 pilot in a mythical Arab kingdom and ends with a biting joke about pursuing the Nobel Prize.
