ENLIVENED BRIDGE BIDDING EAPEGTED Spur to Sims-Culbertson Match Is Foreseen in New Rules. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, April 1.—New bridge rules reducing penalties led kibitzers today to conclude that a burst of lively bidding was in prospect as the P. Hal Simses and the Ely Cul- bertsons resume their 150-rubber match with 110 rubbers t;: go. s the new rules, effective hdl% be most welsome to the rtly P. Hal Sims and his wife- g:nmr. Dorothy. They finished the first week of play trailing the Cul- bertson husband-wife combination by 9,830 points and must put on the pressure if they do not want to fall too far behind. Spurs Higher Penalties. ‘The decreased penalties in the new rules should offer an incentive to higher bidding. There were fre- quent occasions in last week's games on which both sides failed to reach game or slam bids, and it is likely they will adopt different tactics from now on. A Kkibitzer with an eye to “batting averages” has produced figures which show that Culbertson and Sims are running fairly close in the matter of contracts fulfilled in the games played last week, although such fig- ures would hardly show any su- periority of one player over another. Of the 259 hands dealt last week Culbertson played 74, fulfilling 51 and going down on 23 for a ‘“batting av- erage” of .689. Sims also played 74 hands, making 46 and being set on 28 for an average of .616. Mrs. Sims in Third Place. Mrs. Sims was in third place with 574, making 27 contracts and losing 20. Mrs. Culbertson won 30 and lost! 24 for an average of .555. Ten of the 259 hands were passed out. . This week's program calls for fi\'e‘ afternoon and four night sessions, although this may be changed. as the match is running behind schedule.
