NAQUAIRE obviously reminded some of you of lacquer, as we had 3 defs
based on that meaning. I thought they were sufficiently different not
to have to combine them.

The real meaning is 2: a kettledrum, which four players guessed.
Efrem Mallach takes the next deal with a natural 6 points for his pile
of snow, leaving Johnny Barrs, Chuck Emery, Mike Shefler, Dodi
Schultz, and Steve Dixon trailing in his wake with 4 points apiece.

Tkae it way, Efrem!
