UMUC eyes office hours at Eastern
Shore Higher Education Center
WYE MILLS — The University
of Maryland University College has established office
hours at the Eastern Shore
Higher Education Center,
located next to the wind turbine on the Chesapeake College Wye Mills campus.
AD Adedapo, UMUC representative, will be in room
HEC 104A from 9 a.m.
to noon on the following
Wednesdays: June 14, July12
and Aug. 9. Beginning in
September, he will be available in the Caroline Center
on the Chesapeake College
Campus from 9 a.m. to noon
on the second Wednesday of
each month.
UMUC has partnered with
Chesapeake College to help

a bachelor’s degree through
the Community College Alliance program. Students
with an associate’s degree
from Chesapeake College
automatically are eligible
for a Completion Degree,
which will allow students to

fectly.)
At every table where the
contract made, West took the
second trick with his jack and
cashed the spade king, under
which East failed to unblock
the queen.
One East realized that
throwing away the queen
was safe. If South had started
with four spades, he would
have responded one spade,
not one no-trump.
TRUST PARTNER’S
CARD AND SOUTH’S
BIDDING
By Phillip Alder
George Eliot wrote, “There
are men whose presence infuses trust and reverence.”
If your bridge partner is
one of those, lucky you. But
regardless, you must be able
to rely on your partner’s bids
and plays. Trusting the opponents is a tad more dangerous because they might
intentionally be trying to
mislead you; however, most
of the time, they are dependable.
This deal was played at
Bridge Base Online last
month. It looks so easy to
defeat three no-trump, but it
made seven times and failed
only thrice. Why?
As a secondary issue, what
is the best contract for NorthSouth, and how do they get
there?
After West led the spade
seven, almost every East won
with the ace and returned the
spade two, low from three
remaining cards. (Two Easts
sensibly led back the spade
queen, which worked per-
complete their bachelor’s
degree for $12,000 or less.
The $50 college application
fee also is waived. Alliance
students also are guaranteed
admission to UMUC and
may transfer up to 70 credits
from Chesapeake College.

Integrace communities provide a continuum of services to support both residents and the
