Interactive: It's the buzzword of the moment, describing electronic devices by which people can respond to their television and computer screens. For half a century, New York Times readers have interacted the old-fashioned way, in writing. Every day, the crossword puzzle turns Times readers into Times writers. Every day, one on one, thousands engage the puzzle editor who, sometimes devilish and sometimes pedantic, becomes a friend. A few days ago, we lost such a friend. Eugene T. Maleska, our puzzle editor since 1977, died in Daytona Beach, Fla., at the age of 77. His death followed by only three months that of Will Weng, his predecessor and fellow cigar lover, at the age of 86. Will served as puzzle editor from 1969 till 1977, succeeding Margaret Farrar, who started the Times Sunday crossword in 1942.

Newspaper executives say the industry has begun an evolution toward a handful of national electronic networks that will offer local "brand name" newspaper services. For instance, one of those networks, America Online, now carries "Chicago Online," the service of The Chicago Tribune.

A large number of deals focus around the queen of trumps: can the declarer guess where it is? Even when it is located, it may still prove to be a thorn in declarer's flesh, as witness the diagramed deal from the Life Master Pairs Championship in Washington last month. The declarer was Lenore Server of River Vale, N.J., and her admiring partner was Leonard Karp of Tenafly, N.J. He was revisiting the scene of a triumph in the Markus Cup at his first Nationals almost 40 years earlier. The partnership was playing the fourth-suit bid of two diamonds as game-forcing, an idea that is now popular although theoretically dubious: There are many hands with about 11 points that need to use a fourth-suit bid at the two-level to invite a game without guaranteeing one. The alternative is to use it as forcing to two no-trump or until a suit bid is raised.
