Nineteen out of tAventy of the Avorld’s foremost bridge players are men. ’ ’ Mrs Culbertson stated that men Avere bad losers, Avhich Avas fatal in bridge. She continued: “You rarely hear a Avoman complaining like men about cards or partners. The colossal conceit of men is responsible for most of their faults. They Avill not admit that anything is wrong Avith their game.”
