GAME j It'8 a whole new ball game ".'nthe final. There'8 no carryover from the previous'six sessions ' everyone starts from scratch. The only thing the. first aix sessions determined waa whether or not you qualified to play in the last four. Moving to the foxe in last night'8 opening session were Eric Kokish and Peter Nagy, two Canadian stars from Montreal. They put together a 63. 8' game to take the lead by 16 points over France'8 Jean-Mare RoudjLnescoand Jean. Louiia Stoppa. Top on a board was 19. The other Canadian paix in the finale Toronto'8 Ted Ho~g and John Stevens, were in third, with Americans Ron Andersen and Hugh MacLean next.

LEAD THAT SINGLETON TRUMP WHEN YGU DOUBLE t That seemed to be the theme running through the two hands Open Pairs leaders Eric Kokish and Peter Nagy brought to the Daily Bulletin in the wee hours this morning. In each case the opening lead by Nagy waa his singleton trump, and in each case the result was a clear top 19 matchpoints. They talked about Board 18 first, so here it is.
