A narrator recalls learning bridge after being pressed into a seat at a party, enduring mockery as a novice and observing the game’s fierce culture. Separately, notes recount Abraham Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address preparation, debunking myths about its drafting before detailing officials who read the manuscript. The Iowa State Daily editors propose a cross-state basketball game between Iowa and Iowa State with proceeds aiding Hungarian relief, urging renewed intra-state rivalry.
