Mémento Du Bridge Moderne. Les Annonces Et Le Jeu De La Carte
MÉMENTO DU BRIDGE MODERNE OUVRAGES DE J. LE DENTU Le Bridge pour tous (Fayard). Mémento du bridge (Fayard). Bridge à la Une (Fayard). Mémento du jeu de la carte (Fayard). Bridge facile (Fayard). JOSÉ LE DENTU MEMENTO DU BRIDGE MODERNE FAYARD @ Librairie Arthème Fayard, 1971. INTRODUCTION ET MODE D'EMPLOI Ce Mémento est l'analyse, sous une forme schématique et très complète, des Enchères Naturelles et des conventions les plus modernes. Ce n'est pas un livre à lire d'un trait, mais une petite encyclo- pédie dont l'ordre logique, qui apparaît immédiatement dans la table des matières (p. XI), peut servir de guide à tout enseigne- ment. C'est aussi un véritable dictionnaire auquel un index alphabétique permet de se référer. Ce Mémento du bridge moderne, fruit de dizaines d'années d'expériences et d'analyses, est le résumé le plus perfectionné qu'on puisse trouver. Aucune convention valable n'est omise. Même lorsque son usage est à déconseiller, il est bon de savoir qu'elle existe, ne serait-ce que pour pouvoir se défendre contre elle. La plupart des grands principes qui régissent les enchères ont été créés et développés par Ely Culbertson et par Pierre Albarran, deux grands pionniers du bridge moderne. Mais tout évolue et il était indispensable d'apporter des améliorations, même aux règles les plus courantes. Ce petit ouvrage est donc la synthèse de tout ce que chacun de nous, débutant ou champion, peut avoir besoin de connaître s'il veut progresser dans l'art des annonces et du jeu de la carte. -

Sdinburyk, WARRENDER LETTERS CORRESPONDENCE OF SIR GEORGE WARRENDER BT. LORD PROVOST OF EDINBURGH, AND MEMBER OF PARLIAMENT FOR THE CITY, WITH RELATIVE PAPERS 1715 Transcribed by MARGUERITE WOOD PH.D., KEEPER OF THE BURGH RECORDS OF EDINBURGH Edited with an Introduction and Notes by WILLIAM KIRK DICKSON LL.D., ADVOCATE EDINBURGH Printed at the University Press by T. and A. Constable Ltd. for the Scottish History Society 1935 Printed in Great Britain PREFACE The Letters printed in this volume are preserved in the archives of the City of Edinburgh. Most of them are either written by or addressed to Sir George Warrender, who was Lord Provost of Edinburgh from 1713 to 1715, and who in 1715 became Member of Parliament for the City. They are all either originals or contemporary copies. They were tied up in a bundle marked ‘ Letters relating to the Rebellion of 1715,’ and they all fall within that year. The most important subject with which they deal is the Jacobite Rising, but they also give us many side- lights on Edinburgh affairs, national politics, and the personages of the time. The Letters have been transcribed by Miss Marguerite Wood, Keeper of the Burgh Records, who recognised their exceptional interest. Miss Wood has placed her transcript at the disposal of the Scottish History Society. The Letters are now printed by permission of the Magistrates and Council, who have also granted permission to reproduce as a frontispiece to the volume the portrait of Sir George Warrender which in 1930 was presented to the City by his descendant, Sir Victor Warrender, Bt., M.P. -

Newsletter July 2005
Newsletter July 2005 Message from the Chairman I am glad that we are able to resume issuing a Newsletter to members of the Club œ thanks to Chris Lamb who has nobly volunteered to take on the role of editor. Sadly, my first task here is to mention the recent deaths of two of our long-standing members, John Durden and Gillian James, to whose families we extend our sympathies. A short appreciation of both of them appears later in this Newsletter. Looking ahead, Club events through to August next year are set out in the 2005/2006 programme which accompanies this Newsletter. Its contents largely follow the pattern of previous years, but there are two points which I should like to draw to your attention. First, for a few days around Christmas, Bromley Mytime (the new managementspeak name for that part of the local authority which deals with public hall lettings) has denied us access to our usual playing accommodation. Fortunately, we have been able to arrange for the Club meetings affected to be held in the Methodist Church hall just along the road, which you will remember we used for several weeks some time ago when the Public Halls were closed for alterations. Second, the Sam Russell Championship Pairs competition will again be held over two sessions, in June 2006. Your Committee is, however, considering some change to its format in view of criticism from some members that the entry for a major Club competition like this should not be restricted to a maximum of 24 pairs. The reason for the restriction was to enable the competition to be on an all-play- all basis. -
