BRIDGE NOTES

TWO WAY THREE RID

By Ely Culbertson.

The new two-way three bid has all the effectiveness of a masked or camouflaged battery. The enemy has no means of de- termining its power or scope until it is too late to set up the proper defences. Whether the shell it throws turns out a dud for a high explosive, its menace.

remains real.

The fact that the three bidder's partner, as well as his jopponents, cannot know the true implication of the bid until the second round, works little or no hardship on the users. The partner can afford to in- Įvestigate the meaning by hold- ling the bidding open. At the worst he will increase the con- tract only one trick. But the adversaries

are in a pretty dilemma indeed: Bid, and risk being slaughtered; pass, and risk losing a lay-down game.

Known from his youth-as a pathfinder and Indian scout, Daniel. Boone was a natural choice to lead the expedition of settlers from Carons to a new Western frontier beyoud the Cumberland Moon- tains. And George O'Brien, favourite screen hero of outdoor drama, was a logical choice for the role of the great pioneer.
