Name

[edit]

Did she eventually compete under the name Edith Freilich rather than Edith Kemp Freilich (and earlier names)? Does anyone know when?

Perhaps that isn't the right question. Was she ever a member of the ACBL (or a WBF player) under the name Edith Kemp Freilich? Or did Daily Bulletin and monthly Bridge Bulletin editors report her accomplishments under that name by editing her official name, as a succinct way to help numerous readers recognize "them" as one person?

I suggest the longer article name as for Dorothy Hayden Truscott. Anyway, I made Edith Kemp Freilich a "printworthy redirect" for some listings under K someday. If the other decision is reversed, the same should be done for Edith Freilich under F.

(Her NYTimes obituary and USBF death notice both use Edith Kemp Freilich. Dorothy Hayden Truscott, however, published books under that long name and libraries catalog her so.)

The World Bridge Federation player database one major appearance to "Edith Freilich" (1985) rather than "Edith Kemp" (1981 to 1988) so we have two External links templates {{WBFpeople}}.

verbatim copy of part of Talk:Helen Sobel Smith#Sources -P64
  • Regarding the "greatest woman player", it has been said of both Helen and Dorothy Truscott so much as, ahem, that each is/was universally considered the best ever. Judy Kay-Wolff is one example regarding Helen (blog 2010-12-26). In Comment later that day, Kay-Wolff "far from qualified" herself, paraphrased remarks by Bobby Wolff on Edith Kemp, Sabine Auken, and present gals, and remarked herself on Sally Young.[1] (Those 3 of 200 recent new player pages are sure to survive here.)

That one is generally valuable and not foremost concerning Helen MWSS. I readily found this seeking an obituary by Truscott, who was the NYTimes bridge columnist from 1964.
