Pope Pius XI appeared publicly in Vatican City amid prayers for peace.

Passive Bridge Defense Signals Trouble For Declarers

Oswald Jacoby explains that passive defense in bridge often means sitting tight, yet sometimes you must act to avoid trouble. The sample hand shows a collapse when East allows difficulties, and West gains by not opening a spade. A diamond lead would have helped defenders against the declarer’s game.
