Learn how to play bridge this fall

If you're like me and don't play bridge, then you are probably just as bewildered as I am when you read in the games section of the newspaper about the bridge hands that have been dealt to the compass points. Bids, passes, raises, trumps, tricks ... what could it possibly all mean?

Now is your chance to satisfy your curiosity and find out what this bridge playing is all about. Starting Monday, September 14, a bridge class will begin at the library, taught by Joseph Hendon. Mr. Hendon is a retired chemist and educator and an avid bridge player. He will conduct classes for beginners for 8 weeks.

• Where: Library Multi-Purpose Room
• Cost: $30 (due before the first meeting)
• Deadline: Friday, September 11
• Included in the cost of the class is a book, Bridge for Dummies, and various handouts.
