MOOSE JAW REGIONAL - <strong>2006</strong><br />
By Edwin (Ed) Anderson – Club President<br />
<strong>JUNE</strong><br />
It's time, I believe, for a bit of good, old-fashioned back<br />
slapping, and (dare I say it) maybe a bit of bragging about our<br />
Club and its members.<br />
<strong>2006</strong><br />
The recently concluded Moose Jaw Regional gave ample evidence that <strong>bridge</strong> in<br />
Saskatoon is very healthy, indeed. Each and every daily winner's list contained a high<br />
percentage of Saskatoon names. Of course, we've come to expect great performances<br />
from a number of our top players, and once again they didn't disappoint - Joe and Sandi<br />
Kerger, Andy and Curley Anderson, John Pulles, and Len Racette were among the top<br />
performers in the tournament as usual, and we congratulate them all. In addition to<br />
these performances, there were other bits of truly great news that may be even more<br />
significant for our <strong>club</strong>.<br />
It was wonderful, indeed, to see that some of our intermediate and several of our new<br />
and enthusiastic players also came through with great performances.<br />
Eleanor Kennedy, Alf Keating, Genevieve Salamon, Ursula Jugnauth, Dianne Moore and<br />
Bev Prokop had exceptional tournaments, and were well rewarded in master points for<br />
their efforts. Moe and Gloria Hnatuck both achieved Life Master status as a result of a<br />
strong performance in team games, and the foursome of Maxine Cromwell (new LM),<br />
Lynn Goshawk, Lorraine Lalonde-Mahy and Pat Dickson played at a high level throughout<br />
the entire week with each of them scoring in excess of 20 master points.<br />
All in all, our players represented us very well, and, as President of the Saskatoon Bridge<br />
Club, I am pleased to give some long-overdue recognition to some very deserving<br />
people. I realize that any message that names names is running the risk of making<br />
serious omissions. It is my hope that I will be forgiven for any such unintentional<br />
oversights and that the main point of the message will not be obscured. We are proud of<br />
all of our players and their achievements.<br />

Education Coordinator<br />
Lessons are winding down for the season. Verla and Shirley have<br />
completed their ACBL courses and workshops; June and Ken are<br />
progressing through Beginner Bridge 3. Please note that<br />
although the Thursday morning BB group does not run over the<br />
summer, the Monday evening game will continue for players<br />
under 50 MP.<br />
To reinforce the learning experience, students know that lesson materials are always<br />
worth a re-read. In addition, the <strong>bridge</strong> <strong>club</strong>’s library contains a wealth of books on a<br />
variety of <strong>bridge</strong> topics. All members of the <strong>club</strong> are invited to borrow (and return) these<br />
books.<br />
The teachers will be meeting soon to discuss plans for the Fall session of lessons. It<br />
would be very helpful for us to have as much input as possible from the <strong>club</strong> members<br />
with regard to the current and future Education Program. We aim to please! Feel free to<br />
share your comments and or suggestions with Verla 373-6144.<br />
Have a wonderful summer!<br />
Note: All of the information pertaining to our teaching program is posted on our<br />
website; and for this, we give great thanks to our talented Webmaster! Check it out at<br />

EXPANSION AND RENOVATION - DREAM TO REALITY<br />
By June Ogilvie<br />
These days, every time I walk into the Bridge<br />
Club I am overcome with the feeling of how<br />
spacious, bright and airy it is. The membership,<br />
the Executive, the Building Committee and many<br />
others created this wonderful atmosphere.<br />
The first step towards having the Club as it is now was the amalgamation of the three<br />
Clubs, namely The Club (evening), The Branch (afternoon), and The New Horizons<br />
(Monday morning seniors). Through collaboration and information sessions a new<br />
Constitution was written and approved by the membership in July 2003. A new<br />
Executive was elected. To work as one Club it was necessary to complete financial<br />
statements for each <strong>club</strong> for the period October 1, 2002 to July 3, 2003. Another<br />
financial statement was completed for the period ending September 30, 2003 to show<br />
the financial position of the Saskatoon Bridge Club and was presented to the Annual<br />
General Meeting in December of 2003. It was at this meeting the Membership requested<br />
the Executive to proceed with the process for an expansion.<br />
In January and February, 2004 the Executive worked on identifying our needs and<br />
outlining the steps required to reach our objectives. A Building Committee was<br />
appointed. The Committee included Barry Prokop, Rand Burlingham, Doris Hassel and<br />
Lew Heuchert. They were supplied with the Terms of Reference and things were<br />
underway.<br />
In the early stages one of the major realizations was that we not only wanted to expand<br />
the Club to meet our growing needs, we also needed to renovate the original structure,<br />
particularly to insulate the walls and ceiling.<br />
June Ogilvie – Past President<br />
In the spring of 2004, an architect was selected, preliminary<br />
plans and a budget prepared. During the late summer we<br />
held several information sessions to inform and to get input<br />
from the membership. On October 17, 2004 we held a Special<br />
Meeting to request approval to go ahead with the Project and<br />
to obtain authorization to spend up to $400,000. on the<br />
project.<br />

We had an excellent turnout of members at the meeting and the motion was<br />
unanimously approved. This was definitely a highlight.<br />
The next steps included preparation of final drawings. We went to<br />
Tender early in 2005 and received several bids with a relatively<br />
small difference between the high and the low bids. This was<br />
probably a real low for us because even the lowest bid was more<br />
than we had budgeted for. All parties involved spent a lot of time<br />
reviewing the bids and our needs. Finally the Executive, The<br />
Building Committee and the Architect held a special meeting. The<br />
Engineer also attended this meeting. We reviewed everything and<br />
cut many items. We stayed with the mechanical, electrical costs<br />
because one of our main considerations was good heating and<br />
ventilation. However, even after the changes we made, we were<br />
still over budget. Our only option was to call another Special<br />
Meeting for February 20, 2005. We put a Motion on the floor requesting authorization to<br />
spend and additional $160,000. The Motion was approved (121 in favor, 4 against).<br />
Finally everything was GO! We had a Preconstruction Meeting on March 18, 2005 with<br />
Architect, Dunmac Contractors, Building Committee, Executive representatives, and<br />
Mechanical and Electrical Contractors. Things were about to actually begin. In April and<br />
May some work was started and initially there was some discomfort to members<br />
because of dust and noise. Because of this, Al Robb and myself started looking for<br />
somewhere to relocate our games during the construction period. We had planned to<br />
finish the expansion first and play some games in there and find a space to rent for our<br />
larger games. It now seemed apparent that we should just find a spot and move<br />
everything for the duration of the construction. After phoning and checking many<br />
possibilities we lucked out and found space at Market Mall. The size was O.K. and the<br />
rent was reasonable. We made the decision to make the move and even this went<br />
smoothly thanks to Al Robb. We played in Market Mall for June and July and two weeks<br />
in August. Dunmac Contractors paid for the<br />
rent so even that was in our favor.<br />
We moved back into the Club as scheduled in<br />
August 2005. There have been a few things<br />
that have had to be looked after since that<br />
time but all in all I believe we are all very<br />
happy with our new Club. A special THANK<br />
YOU to everyone involved.<br />

NS BUMP VS EW SIT-OUT<br />
By Claire Jones – District 18<br />
Saskatoon Bridge Club Newsletter<br />
"The following message outlines reasons<br />
for using a NS Bump rather than an<br />
EW sit-out wherever possible".<br />
I'll use the example of a 10 1/2<br />
table game, but the principal is the<br />
same in all situations and technically<br />
superior and worth the little effort it<br />
takes.<br />
10 table bump:<br />
� 30 boards in play<br />
� all boards are played 9 times and have a top of 8<br />
� 3 board sit-out so players play either 24 or 27 boards<br />
10.5 table sit-out:<br />
� 33 boards in play<br />
� some boards played 9 times (8 top) and some boards played 8 times (7 top)<br />
� 3 board sit-out so players play either 24 or 27 boards<br />
Disadvantages:<br />
I may get a top board and score 8 while another player's top is worth 7. The computer<br />
will factor the scores so they have equal value but my top was harder to earn as I had to<br />
beat 8 pairs while you only had to beat 7 pairs.<br />
The 2nd is that as players we will have fewer boards in common. With 33 boards and I<br />
play 24, there are 9 boards I miss. If you also miss 9 boards we only have 15 boards in<br />
common. With a bump there are only 30 boards in play and we will have 18 boards in<br />
common.<br />
In duplicate you want to play as many of the same boards as<br />
possible and you want the boards to have the same value. It<br />
is for these 2 reasons that a bump is a superior movement.<br />

IMPORTANT BRIDGE PLAYERS - Terence Reese<br />
Terence Reese (born 28 August 1913 in Epsom, died 1996) is British <strong>bridge</strong> player, regarded as one of<br />
the finest players of all time, and also as one of the most influential and acerbic of <strong>bridge</strong> writers with a<br />
large output including several books which remain in print as classics of <strong>bridge</strong> play.<br />
He was one of the designers of the Acol bidding system (named after the Acol Bridge Club in north<br />
London) which has become the prevailing bidding system in Britain and many parts of the world.<br />
He played many times for England in the Bermuda Bowl, but his final appearance was marred by<br />
accusations that he and his partner Boris Schapiro were communicating illegally - in fact cheating. The<br />
outcome of an enquiry was not clear, and Reese wrote a book Portrait of an Accusation about the affair.<br />
He did not play international <strong>bridge</strong> again, but his career as a <strong>bridge</strong> writer continued unabated.<br />
In his later years Reese played little competitive <strong>bridge</strong>, enjoying Backgammon as an alternative.
