Fragmented OCR notes mix terms, names, and figures including Chevalier Ernest d’Erlach, Fresch Huguenot, and scattered trade and livestock terms.

Complex bridge bidding and missteps amid slam talk
The column discusses Blackwood conventions and hand evaluation with emphasis on control of suits, aces, and slam prospects. It notes partner support, doubletons, and risks when facing opposing bids, then shifts to market summaries and grain statistics from Baltimore and New York reports with assorted prices and stock figures.
