Daily Crossword
Dear Ann Landers: When I
was in junior high I read your
column for laughs. Now that
I'm a grown woman, I find
myself turning to you for help.
I'm 31 years old and have a
wonderful husband and two
beautiful children. We have
been married for seven years,
and he gives me everything I
want. I' really must be crazy to
-be taking such chances, but I
can’t seem to break out of this
pattern.
I don’t know how to describe
my problem except to say I find
myself going to bed with every
man who pays me a com-
pliment or shows the slightest
sign of affection.
This has been going on for the
last three years.
My last affair was with a man
my husband works with. If he
knew, he would throw me out
and take the children.
My husband is as straight as
an arrow. He has no tolerance
for infidelity. I know I have
been very lucky, and I simply

Jacobys on Bridge
Point count origin shbwn
By Oswald Jacoby
and Alan Sontag
" In the American card game
known as Pitch, you count
four for the ace, three for the
king, twS for the queen and
one for the jack. This doesn’t
show the value of These cards
in your hand but rather the
points they .represent in tricks
you have taken.
Back in 1915, Bryant
McCampbell of St. Louis
wrote his friend Milton Work
suggesting that the Pitch 4-3-
2-1 count be used for notrump
bidding. Work wrote about it
and lots of players used it.
But other writers did not.
When contract came in during
the late '20s, the public fol-
lowed Ely Culbertson and
honor tricks, which valued
combinations of honors.
In 1932, Oswald Jacoby
married tennis champion
Mary Zita McHale. He wanted
to teach her bridge in a hurry
and decided it would be sim-
pler if she gave each ace and
face card a point value, tt
didn’t take long to find that he'
could bid better with her than
with his regular expert part-
ners and they also started
using point count.
Later on. Charles Goren
added short-suit points for use
in suit bidding. The count was
three for a void, two for a sin-
gleton and one for a double-
'ton.
Here is a simple distribu-
tional point table.
A. Each void (blank
auit): three points.
Each singlston (one-
card suit): two pointa.
Each doubleton (two-
card suit): ona point.
B. Add one point lor
each card over tour in
any auit that ia ao
strong you don't need
partner's support to
establish it.
C. Subtract one point
for 4-3-3-3 distribution.
This .is overlooked by
other writers but is
- - most important.
D. Count distributional
points for suit bids
only.
Key Numbers:
Grand slam (all 13
tricks): 37 points.
Small slam (12 tricks):
33.
Minor-suit game (11
tricks): 29.
Major-suit game (10
tricks): 26.
Notrump game (nine
tricks): 26.
Point count is accurate but
not perfect, As the bidding
develops, you must realize
that some points become
worthless or nearly worthless,
others increase in value,
It is impossible. to make a
'grand slam with only five
high-card points in the com-
bined hands or to be unable to
make any game with 38 high-
card points.

Lady Is A Tramp *
Dear Friend: Your story is
pathetic — and I’ve heard it
many times before. It sounds as
if you grew up without the
paternal love you needed as a
child. You’ve been filling in the
voitj by latching on to shoddy
substitutes.
You need professional help,
and I hope you will get it at
once. Now that you have a fine
husband you must learn to get
your fulfillment from him
exclusively. With proper help
you can do it — and you must.
The stakes are mighty, high.—-
Dear Ann Landers: 1 have
arthritis of the eyes. This was
not my diagnosis. It was my
doctor’s. The problem is very
painful, but worse than the
disease is the reaction of my
friends. They think it is simply
hilarious. I get no un-
derstanding or consolation
whatever.
A relative who is a
physician’s assistant told me,
emphatically that I could not
possibly have arthritis of the
eyes because arthritis is a
disease that affects only the
joints.
Will you please publish my
letter and verify what I have
said? Your word will mean
something. Mine doesn’t mean
a hoot, obviously. — No
Laughing Matter In Georgia
Dear Georgia: My word
won’t carry any more weight
than yours, but my consultant
in this matter is a most
distinguished ophthalmologist,
and what he says should count
for a great deal.
Dr. David Paton of Houston
says arthritis can be found in
the eyes. The explanation is
much too complicated and
clinical to go into here, but you
are right — and your friends
should stop laughing, for more
reasons than one.
Dear Ann Landers; I’m a
girl, 17.1 used to .be crazy about

Jeff but he treated me so rotten
I finally told him to get lost.
Guys always want what they
can’t get so he began to hang
around a lot. Now I really can’t
stand him.
Mom thinks Jeff is the living
end. He keeps coming over and
she has been trying to sell me
on him. Last night he sat in the
living room for two hours
talking to Mom. I read the
newspaper and watched TV. I
know it was rude but I don’t like
the jerk. ,
How can 1 get Mom to stop
being so nice to him? It’s just a
plot to get me interested.
Jean
- Dear Jean: Since he's your
mother’s guest you have no
obligation beyond saying hello:
After that you can excuse
yourself and go to another
room. Jeff will get the picture
soon and give up.
