BY OSWALD JACOBY
THERE'S nothing like a team
of four match' to show up errors in bidding and play. When the same hand is played more than once, under con- ditions that come close to rub- ber bridge, the differences in results will usually reflect
differences in skill.
Today's hand revealed glaring bidding error in one
mom.
South aldn't really have a chauce for his contract in the first room. He was bound to lose two trump tricks (as long the sult broke unfavour- ably), a club, and a diamond.

This bidding showed very strong pre- ference for hearts, but allowed North to have a word about the selection of a trump suit.
