Cribbing and clues in a bridge crime puzzle
A NEA bridge puzzle describes a hand where South faces a four spades contract. West doubles, signals and plays lead to a sequence that risks the declarer, while East and South are entangled in misplayed cards. The piece identifies the criminals as South and East, with miscaptures and leads allowing West to profit. The narrative then shifts to other brief items about a church anniversary plan, San Francisco mint closing, a flying saucer sighting near Dickerson, and a Phi Beta Kappa note.
