Mistletoe and a Bridge Lesson in Old Fashioned Style
In a page oddity mix, Oswald and Jim Jacoby discuss a rubber bridge hand where East misleads by a club and South overreaches. The notation includes a bridge diagram and a brief temperament note on a misplayed overtrick. The column then shifts to botany trivia about mistletoe Phoradendron flavescens and Druids.

Real estate exam passers and Spitzig’s career milestones
Four members of the class trained by Frank Spitzig of Strasburg passed the Virginia State Real Estate examination for salesmen. Spitzig also passed the broker exam on his first try and launched Strasburg Realty in March, later guiding local real estate ventures while serving as a veteran architect with a long resume. Joseph A. Allen and his wife issued bonuses totaling over 25000 dollars to about 150 employees at Duff’s Restaurant and related Kentucky Fried Chicken stores. The piece notes a local fish fry origin of hush puppies served with fried fish.
