Lucky hand in bridge by Oswald Jacoby
A Milwaukee correspondent recounts a very lucky bridge hand. East covers with queen of clubs, West continues with a club, dummy ruffs, and the declarer cashes diamonds, finesses spades, and twice uses high cards to establish the dummy. The observer estimates the jack of spades becoming established in about ten percent of similar layouts, noting the South player’s aggressive bidding and risky play.

Fragmented OCR yields wartime puzzle and war talk
A mixed OCR fragment shows a word puzzle list with numbers and hints, then shifts to a rapid summary of a chess like bridge play and a report about Sweden gifting stone for a Soviet monument, with pricing and ownership notes, followed by a Korea front guerrilla tactic note about women refugees aiding supply lines.
