CONTRACT BRIDGE
By W. E. McKenney.

The negative double ployed to-day by the users of the constructive system of contract bidding la-the direct creation of that masterful player, P. ilal Sims. Ife has given more thought and study to this particular defensive bidding tactle than any other player in the country,
+
Many players to-day in contract bridge employ the negative double to show a definite number of high card tricks. Mr. Sime' theory,
however, is that the negative dan- le may be employed with soveral different types of hands, as follows:
First, a very powerful hand; second, a hand in which you wish only to interfere with the oppo- nonts' bidding, a sort of a nuisance double, as he terms it; third, double that may mean nothing more than a lead-directing double,
If you double one major suit you muat definitely have support for the other major. If you dou- ble a minor ault, you should have support for both majors, but sure- ly you must have at least one good major.
One of the most important points that he brought out was that it might be used to cement together a good partnership. For example, you might double on a hand in which the only information that you desired was whether or not your partner held four of one of the majora.. Finding that out, you bid

partner East also knows his doubled hearts and is therefore prepared for a spade take-out, so East responds with one spade; South passed and West jumped to four spades.

How would you like to be sit- ting in the East position when your partner went to four spades? You would-be ready-to-shoot him- at sunrise. However, you, with a complate Yarborough (and mumber this is the hand that the bet Duke of Yarborough would you a thousand dollars to a dol

You would certainly feel pretty proud of yourself on telling overy. body how you make four spades on a hand containing no card higher than a nine spot. During your boasting I'm quite süre you would not forgot to say, bidding, partner."--
