RESULT CORRECTION: Wed Nov 20, 2019 - Too many errors folks!
  Board 1: 4 - Fischer & Aronson (NS) vs 7 - Goddard & Nolan (EW). The contract was entered to the wrong side. 
  The correct contract was 3N by E making 6. +490 for EW.

  Board 11: 2 - Nowill & Nettler (NS) vs 1 - French & Wroblewski (EW). The contract was entered to the wrong side.
  The correct contract was 4H by E down 2, not 4H by S down 2. +100 for NS.

  Board 14: 4 - Fischer & Aronson (NS) vs 4 - LaFlam & Sagor (EW). The contract was entered to the wrong side.
  The correct contract was 4SXS down 4, not 4SXW down 4. +800 for EW.

  Board 10: In the middle of playing, someone had taken the hands out and put them back wrong. As a result, 
  half of the pairs played the hands in the opposite direction, i.e NS played the hands that belonged to EW. 
  Because of this, three pairs who played the wrong hands had to be FOULed. This is very unfortunate!

The following is the corrected results:
