CONTRACT BRIDGE

By W. E. McKenney

I don't believe that you can count up that number of high card tricks in one hand, add it to the number In partner's hand, and in that manner determine whether or not you can make a game or slam. I have soon too many hands hold-: ing six or seven tricks between tliem have difficulty in oven game, while many hands that had only two to four tricks between them mado a game and even a slam."

The Bidding...

South bids one heart and West who is vulnerable, should not over call with two diamonds. North bids ono spade-this is a one over one force.

If South held a doubleton dia. mond, I believe his next bid should be two clubs. However, he is vold of diamonds, and has the jack and one of his partner's suit, therefore I believe that he should make a slam try bid of three clubs. This is n forcing bid, assuring 'game,

North should bid four clubs to show the fit in clubs. South's TRY OUR BRITISH, FRENCH & RUSSIAN FOOD TAKADA

next bid should be five hearts. While North holds only a double- ton heart, South's bid has clearly indicated to him that the heart Nuit is practically solid.

South is not afraid of making five hearts, oven though North holds a singleton, so that the ten and x constitue bood support Iti Is true that North has a doubleton diamond, but he has two aces and the South is inviting a slam, so correct response by North is seven hearts-not six.

West should not make the mis- take of doubling simply because he holds the ace of diamonds. If he can win his ace of diamonde, ho can rest assured that he will have a very good score on the board, while it his ace of diamonds is trumped, as the bidding has in- dicated It will be he is sure to receive a poor score on the board.
