Second of Two Quick
Tricks May Be in An
other Suit,
BY MILTON c. WORK
he pointer for today is;


When the fivc-card suit does not
contain two quick tricks il should
not be bid unless the hand contains
compromising strength.
A fivc-card suit seaded by an Ace
or by a. king-Queen, contains one
quick trick. The King Queen suit
is a shade stronger than the Ace suit
from the standpoint Of general value
but from the quick-trick standpoint
is rated on the same basis. Neither
should be bid unless the hand also
contains one other quick trick. or
more than the equivalent thereof
Taking up in order the illustrations
given yesterday:
1. Sp.: Ace-Queen-X-X.X. 1t: Ace
x-x Di: X-x-X. CL: X-X.
IT will be noted that in this hand
the five-card suit contains more than
one quick trick, but not two quick
tricks; therefore it should not be bid
without a side quick trick or the
equivalent. The Ace Of Hearts is
quick trick and the hand having
more than the minimum two quick
trick requirements, is unquestion.
ably a bid of one Spade. 1t would
be equally a bid OF one Heart, one.
Diamond or one Club If the Act
Queen-x-X.x were i'm either Of thosSN
suits, and it would be just as much
Spade bid if the support We're
either the Ace Of Diamonds or the
Ace of Clubs.
., Sp.: Ace-X-X.X.X. 1t; Ace.X.X.
Di.: xxx. CT: Xxx.
This hand represents the minimum
in suit-leading. For many years bid
ding a five-card suit headed Only by
an Ace, with a side Ace and no other
strength, was not advised by the
leading authorities unless the suit
named contained at least one other
honor; but it has been found that
passing with a hand like No. ? (con-
tanning as it does two quick tricks
and five-card suit which may be
established is apt to result disad

8. Sp.: Ace-x-x.x-x. 1T: King
Queen-x. Di.: Xxx. CT; Xxx.
This hand unquestionably should
be bid because it is stronger than
No. .. As was stated yesterday, a
King-Queen, while rated as only one
quick trick, is more valuable than
an Ace.

are best adapted to each service. On
the subject of separations the board
recommended that separations from
the active list of the following classes
be continued without material moditi-
cation: Ia Retirement at age of 81,
and for physical disability; tb) volun-
tary retirement after 80 or more years
of service: (c) separations incident to
inefficiency, misconduct, etc, and td)
resignation. With reference to the
method and rate of promotion, the
board arrives at the conclusion that
"a standardized method of promotion
is for the present impracticable. The
promotion rate can be and should be
approximately standardized among the
three services" In conclusion, how
ever, the board was of the opinion
that the most satisfactory co-ordna-
ton will he accomplished by each of
the services working in its own way
toward the common end, and the rec
concentrations made by the board were
predicated upon such foundation.
