Explanation: Dr. Curtis Null, Superintendent of the Conroe Independent School District, along with the Board of Trustees will begin the annual District-wide initiative, "Read for a Better Life." Conroe ISD promotes a culture of reading by calling to action all adults within the Conroe ISD community to devote at least 30 minutes a day to reading aloud to children of all ages. Success in reading is a gateway to success in other areas. Research has shown that reading to a child will have a tremendous impact on a student's success in school. Our goal is to educate all members of our community on the importance of reading aloud to all school-aged students. Reading aloud is a regular practice in our schools, and the District is encouraging this activity on a larger scale. “Read for a Better Life” is a simple task that requires few resources and results in many benefits to students. The District is committed to this project and looks forward to the continued involvement of all members of the Conroe ISD community to read aloud to students.

South passed; director required change of call After my 2h overcall, North thought a long time before doubling. South then passed smoothly. I called the director, just to be protected. Ascertaining that North-South were playing negative doubles, as marked on their card, the director took one look at South's hand, and told her to pick again. We set the resulting 3S contract one, +100. After the play, discussion made it clear that neither opponent thought she had done anything wrong. North said she wanted to try for penalties, planning to show her 3-card spade support, if necessary. South's pass of the negative double (a takeout double by responder), reading the slow double, was blatantly unethical. The slow pass is not unethical, assuming no intent to use the slowness to communicate to partner. Here’s an old story about social bridge, totally against the rules: when opening a short club, the player says “a club”, but with a real club suit, it’s “one club;” finally, with a big hand, it’s “I’ll start with a club.” Any mannerism, inflection, or timing of a bid or play may communicate information to the rest of the table.
