Static Bothers Play In Radio Bridge Tourney
The bridge tournament with the University of Wisconsin to be played by short wave radio struck another snag last night when weather conditions made it impossible to play the entire match.
Play began about 7 p.m. in the Memorial Union lounge but storms between here and Madison prevented the completion of the first hand until 8:30 p.m. Signals for each play had to be repeated several times. The portable transmitter which was to bake communication between the Memorial Union Lounge and the home of Ed Price, c'42, amateur operator who transmitted the plays to the Wisconsin operator, broke down and connection had to be made by telephone.
After the first hand the players moved to the home of Price where the second and third hands were completed. At the end of the third hand the Kansas team at the first table was down 120 points while the team at the second table finished the second hand 870 points to the good.
The remainder of the match will be played in the Memorial Union
Three Parties---lounge Wednesday night with play beginning about 7 p.m. Although the players were originally scheduled to play 12 hands, it has been decided to cut the number down to 8 so that the tournament may be completed Wednesday night.
