We looked forward to start playing again when we retired down here. We mentioned it to a friend and she said we'd find plenty of players here^i The first time she asked us to a bridge patty she put #us w ith three gals who had all won master's points. We ' , went into shock and vowed never to play again. We have played at the Senior's Fun Nights and regained a > little confidence since. ^ This week a friend called I and asked us to fill in tor , one of the usual eightsome / who play together regularly. Even a dingaling beats

an empty chair for a part ner. so we accepted fearful Iv Our host got us off to a giggling start with BloodyMary's. Dottie Kvoy and your reporter missed a grand slam on the first hand we played. Marie Spence played a short club bid with a singleton in the trump suit and the fun was on From that point you couldn't hear the bids for the giggles.

Jim Busha. | On arrival at Resorts we I went immediately to the ' Wedgwood Room for a | superb buffet lunch. Our ! timing was perfect . had we been 10 minutes later we'd have had a half-hour wait to get in.

Kean was } introduced to the hundreds of guests " Almost Vhki senior citizens attended the one-day assembly He in formed the audience of his proposed rebate plan to return approximately $90 million of the state's surplus to taxpayers by increasing homestead rebate checks Naturally this news was enthusiastically received until he said 'There is one hitch."
