The kids dlcln't mind FROM PG. 7 Bridge Norman. And those are just the points for club play. Points earned at higher levels of competition are even harder te corne by. Even so, Norman said there were players at the summer champion- ships with as many as 25,000 to 30,000 master points. In the upper ranges of the bridge ranks, however, Nor- man said the players are professional and make their living playing bridge. During the ten' day competition, ,,games were scheduled prac- tically around the dlock and in the open classes the competition is in- clined to get very inten- se. There's a treinendous amount of psychology involved. It's flot a game for pussy cats. Players are sometimes s0 engrossed in the game that they can of- ten be very rude. Bridge players can be a pretty egotistical lot," chuckled Norman.. The Brooklin Duplicate Bridge Club meets every Monday night at 7:30 and Nor- man said they are always looking for new members.

FROM PG. 9 Women, Revenue Canada obliges the employer to deduct for ineome tax, unemployment insurance, and' Canada Pension Plan fromn the ear- nings of an employee. However, if the home worker werehired on a con- tract basis as a self- employed person she would pay her own tax and her own Canada'pension when she filed ber return. She would not pay unem,- ployment. Although these are the legal requirements they are often not adhered to. Some women refused to give their names to Kent, fearing they would lose a portion of their at home already meagre earnings. The women who replied to Kent's letter ail would like to work at home. They want the responsibility of caring for their own children at home. Some need money; some want independance; some want another in- terest; some want to use home employment as a bridge to return to work outside their home. They see the provision of meaningful home em- ployment as a solution for them, for employers, and for society. The questions is, are em- ployers ready for this new labour pool?
