CONTRACT BRIDGE
By W. E. McKenney
Do the good players, who are successful in winning champlon- ships, always strictly adhere to the syutem they are playing? I think the nnsver given by Willard 8. Karn of New York, one of the Ave outstanding bridge players of the world, to this question is worth repeating.
He said, "Does a good football team play mechanical football ?" He further.asked, "When the sig nals are given for a certain play,
suddenly | and the ball-carrier realizes that the defence has the hole plugged, but sees another opening on the other side of the field-isn't it good football for him to dodge through this weak spot and gain five or ten yarda?" in con- And so, he says, 'it tract. Bid with your partner, but at times, when you are opening, have the courage to do the unu sual..
He gives the following hand which he played recently in

Mr. Karn knew that the West player in this particular hand did not apen on weak first or second hand bids. With a pass from his partner, he reasoned that possi- bly top score on the board would be no trump, therefore he wished to stop a no trump contract.
Buth sides were vulnerable, and generally to overcall, when vul nerable, you are required to hold a five-card suit and about two and one-half high card tricks. Here he was with only one and one-half tricks and a four-card Liddable suit.
It is true he might be subject- ed to severe penalty to overcali, but as he could overcall the West hand with a bid of only one, and this hand WAS
weak, he put in a bid of one spade. If dou- bled, he could get out in hearte.

It was surprising to note, after looking over the scores of the 14 tables which played the same tray, that not another vulnerable North player in the room put in the overall of one spade.
Mr Karn, in explaining the hand later, said he realized that West was not going to play the hand in clubs-that they were go- ing to find a better declaration-- and, in his opinion, he thought no trump would give them' top on the board..
If he could get in a cheap lend directing bid, or a bid that might prevent them from arriving at n no trump contract, he would re ceive a good score on the board. At every other table in the room a small olam

If the opponents had doublet one spade, Mr. Karn would have bid two hearts, which would also have been doubled, but the hand can be played sq us to go down only three tricks doubled for a minus score of 900, which would
