Gary and Kathy Edwards organized a Friday club game matching up a life master with a non life master at the Iowa City Elks Club on May 24th. It was a huge success with 6 1/2 tables. There were more life masters that would have played if there had been non-life master partners. Ardie Cushing brought her laptop with the scoring program and Rich Bailie did the scoring. I heard many of the life masters say it was fun and wanted to do it again. I know the novices appreciated the challenge.
Here are the masterpoint winners N-S and E-W. Life masters are identified with LM.
