No score, first game. z dealt, bid one
no-trump and all passed. A opened the
four of spades. Y played low spade, B
the jack and z won the trick with the
ace. How should he plan the play of the
combined hand2 z must lead the deuce
of clubs from his hand and play the
queen from dummy. If this card forced
the ace, he can finesse against the jack
on the next round. A good player, how
ever, would not play his ace on the first
round, so, in that case, Z is up against
difficult problem. He must set his
club suit at once before the queen of
diamonds, his only possible reentry
card, is taken out of dummy. For that
reason, z must make one Of two plays:
(a) he can lead low club, hoping that
the ace is now single or (b) he can lead
the king of clubs, hoping that the jack
is single. Either play is a guess but one
or the other must be made for the only
hope for game is to set up the clubs. AS
a matter Of fact, the king of clubs would
have been the correct play at trick
three for B originally held the jack and
four of clubs.

You will at once notice the rich,
fragrant aroma of Camel tObacoOS
not found in the other.
This marked difference is even
more apparent when you ''taste the
smoke" 1t is solely because of
the quality of the tObaccOs and the
skill of the blending that Camels
never tire the taste, never leave a
cigaretty after-taste.
Camels are SO good that we know
you will like them. Give them every
test known and you will find Camels
the highest quality cigarette made,
regardless of price. Have d Camel!

In a recent article an analysis was
made of the take-Out Of partners no
trump when second hand had passed.
One of the points emphasized was that
if the original no-trump bidder didn't
like the take-out, he should bid two no.
trump. Since that time the writer has
received several inquiries as to the type
of hand that would justify two no.
trump bid over a take-out of one no.
trump by partner with a bid of two
hearts or two spades. The easiest way
to answer that question is by asking
one. Suppose your partner bid one spade
and second hand passed, with what
kind of hand would you bid one no
trump Answer that question correctly
and you will know when to bid two no
trump over partners take-out of two
hearts or two spades. The object of all
correct bidding is to arrive at the best
bid of the combined hands; that is, the
best bid of twenty-six cards, not of thir-
teen. For example, suppose your part
ner bid one spade, second hand passed
and you held the following cards:
Hearts A, O.,
Clubs-K, ], 10, Z
Diamonds @, IL
- Spades %, 8
The correct bid is undoubtedly one no
trump. Why9 Because experience has
shown that when your partner bids a
suit and you have less than three cards
of that suit, you will have a better
chance for game at some other suit or
no-trump. This is one of the steps in the
process of finding out the best bid of
the combined hands. If you don't deny
help for partner's suit bid, how can you
tell him the kind of hand that you have.
Learn to "mirror" your hand to your
partner, that is, tell him plainly and
clearly by your bidding just what kind
of hand YOU have. For that reason, sup
pose you bid one no-trump with the
following hand:
Hearts "A, Q,4
Clubs X ], 10, 7
Diamonds o, J,T,2
Spades %, g
Second hand passes, your partner bids
+wo spades and fourth hand passes.
Don't you think you ought to bid two
no-trump for exactly the same reason
that you would bid one no-trump with
that hand over a one spade bid by part
ner1 The principles are exactly the same
hl each instance
In the following hands, there is no
Ocore, you are the dealer and have bid
enc no-trump. Secoad hand has passed,
your partner has bid two spades and
fourth hand has passed. What would
you now bid2
