Unless you are quite adept in

ANY opening bid of three Of a
suit demands partners re-
sponse. Novices may fear start
ing contracting so high, but ad-
herence to their rules soon will
assure them that there can be
no danger in such bidding. At
any time they feel dubious about
having sufficient strength to
force a response from partners
they should utilize the semide-
mand opening bid Of two, re-
serving the three bid for hands
that unquestionably assure
game if partner can furnish one
quick trick plus three trumps,
or four trumps without the
quick trick.
An opening bid of three of
