CONTRACT BRIDGE

By W. E. McKenney

Editor's Note: This is the oighth of a serice of articles by Mr. Mo Konney explaining the one over one system for contract bridge.

To raise original bidder's suit bid of one to two, partner's minimum requirements are, first, normal trump support.

Due to the fact that four-card sult bidding plays an important part in contract bridge, trump requirements for normal support aro four small trump or threo trump headed by the ace, king or queen.

Second, ho must have some rat- fing possibilitios, holding either a singleton or a doubleton, and at least a side ace or king. With only three trump headed by an honor, the aido strength should be olther a singleton and a sido king, or a doubleton and a side

aco.

A raise from one to two can hardly be construed да и соп- atructive bid. It is in reality a weak bld. It is quite true that it has some substance, or body, but the original bidder must govern the future bidding on the basis that partner may have held a minimum response. It io also classed as one of the sign-off bits.

* *

To raise an original sult bid of one to three la another of the Im- portant bids in the one over one aystem. First and most impor- tant, it la a forcing bid. For partner to make this bld, ha in re- quired to hold at least normal trump support and two to three high-card tricks on the side.

The quick trick requirements do not play an all-important part in supporting bids. Distribution, rufing possibilities, the length of a side suit, and how quickly it can be established must be given equal consideration in valuing the haud.

In a prevous article I explained that with normal support in the original bidder's suit, and tenace positions in the side suits, partner could bid two no trump to show that his hand could play the no frump.

By jumping an original suit bid

of one to three, you now force the original bidder either to bid three no trump or four of his original suit.

It seklom, pays for the original bidder to show a second suit, es- pecially if the first suit agreed upon is a major, unless he is do- ing so for the purpose of trying slum contract; to arrive at a therefore when partner supporta the original bidder's suit to three, he in stating that if the hand is to be played at no trump, part- ner's hand cun safely become the (lummy,

However, the jump from one to three does not necessarily mean that partner is going to allow the hand to played at ne trump. If the original bidder now responds with three no trump and partner feels that his hand is better played at a suit than at no trump, ho should take the contract to four of the original bidder's suit.

This brings up the question as to why partner does not Imme- diately take the contract to four of the original bidder's suit.

A raise to four over an original suit bid of one shows tremendous strength and is a slam invitation bid. It may be made only with a hand containing three and one- half to four high-card tricks. In than addition it requires more normal trump support-the sup- port now required is four trump headed by a queen, three headed by king queen, or five small.

Breathe Freely! Use MENTHOLATUM

Don't wait for a second sneeze! When that snuffy, stuffy feeling in the nose tells you a cold is com ing, put MENTHOLATUM in the nostrils. Its cooling freshness quickly clears the nasal passages.

Rubbing the throat and chest with MENTHO LATUM often averts the danger of other com plications. Insist on MENTHOLATUM and always carry it with you. It comes in jars, tins and convenient, tidy tubes.

IT is with the greatest pleasure P. & O BRITISH-INDIA APCAR AND

that write to testify to the benefits have received by taking Phosfering during my training for the 1931 Malayan Weight-Lifting Cham- pionships.

As I had to reduce some seven or eight pounds off my normal body- weight in order to enable me to compete in the 9-stone class, I had to go into very strenuous training, and with the help of Phosforine, I not only won the championship of that class, but also the Individual Championship, and, in addition I broke a British Record.
