By OSWALD JACOBY THE bidding of today's hand

was very simple for players who use the point count. South showed a count of 19 to 21 pointa by opening the bidding with one of a suit and then Jumping to two no-trump at his second turn, North had a count of 19 points, and knew that the combined count was 34 to 36

points. This was enough for a amall slam, but not enough for a grand slam, so North wasted no time in bidding the slam,

You usually hav in adequate play for a slan e ract if you have a count of 33 points in the combined hands. This doesn't mean to say that you can always win 12 tricks with such a count. The cards may break badly, for one thing. For another, the slam may be there for the taking only if you play your cards skilfully.
