He is a league director, has played at most of the Jeague tournaments, s one of the commit- teo of seven experts to determine the best method of play; his team won the champion. snip in 1893, and he has held the Hamilton trophy. “Whist-players are to be congratulated that Mr. Bunn has consented to appear in print. His srticles are tull of matter of interest and helpful to all lovers and students of the noble game. His analyses of and comments upon hands played are very-complete and clear. “He gives the latest and best thought om the game, and presents the arguments on both sides with unusual clearness and fair- ness.
