We had 15 tables for this regular Friday morning shuffle-deal-and-play duplicate.
 This is two tables short of enough for two sections, so we played in one large
 section with twelve 2-board rounds.  Top on each board is 11.

One small problem on Board 11 was brought to my attention at the club, and was
 corrected with minimal changes to any rankings.  My rechecking of all scores 
 found one more problem:
  Board 9  NS 3 v EW 1  +140 not +110  very faint hand writing
This change gained 1/2 MP for NS 3, just enough to break a 1st/2nd tie in their
 favor!

Congratulations to Marlene Keliher and Marina Polestra for the best score in the
 room, above 68%, and 8 MP ahead of Len Aberbach and Howard Siegel who had been
 leading with one round to go.  The N-S winners were Bruce Greenspan and Stuart
 Whittle by 1/2 MP over Patricia Hanna and Dottie Nelson.

With only one section, I award Free Plays to only two pairs, the section tops.

I will be going on vacation beginning next Wednesday and not returning until
 Labor Day.  In my absence, Saul Agranoff has graciously agreed to direct three
 Friday morning games.

I got the connector fixed on my computer and am again able to post Preliminary 
 Recaps, and did so today.

Thank you all for coming !
