Hand No. 8

Hand No. 8
 This had has a total count of 19 with only three suits stopped, but as the diamond suit has four small cards and the hand as a total count of l9, it is strong enough to justify an original two no trump bid.
 Hand No. 4
 Hand No. 4 has a count of only 17, but has all four suits stopped, therefore this hand should also be opened with two no trump.
 Hand D
 Here we find a hand that is prac- tically a bust outside of a five-card suit headed by an ace. Remember that in the supporting hand. when holding a five-card suit and it IS headed with any of the three top honors, an extra point is counted for each honor. Therefore in hand w we count foura fro the ace of diamond suit headed with one of the top honors. this gives us an txtra count of one-the total count of that hand. therefore, is five. In our previous article, we learned, however, that a two no trump bid should be supported with count of six or with any five-card suit headed by an ace, therefore hand D should jump partners two no trump to three no trump.
 Hand F.
 Hand F. has the minimum count of six and therefore if partner bids two no trump, holding this type of hand you should jump your partner to three no trump.
 THE TWO SUIT
 NO TRUMP HANDS
 DArH ha Ncf fNytN n bidding is what is known as two suit no trump hands. In all of our previous examples you will notice in three count inS8foltmaH lilo that the count has been distributed in three suits, and of course these are the better types of no trump hands, but occasionally we are dealt a hand that has a strong count. but with only two suits stopped, B.:

 Diamonds-A-k-J ........(S Clubs-A-k-10 ...........C CD
 The total count of this hand is 15 While the spades and heart suits are both practically wide open, the hand is too strong to pass, and it has no good biddable fourcard suit, there fore when holding a hand with count of at least IS anly only two suits stopped, the original bid should be one no trump. With hands counting less than Is and only two suits stoyyed, great care should be exercised in opening them with no trump. But when the count Is Is. many games and partial scores are apt to be passed out if they are not opened with one no trump.

decade there was decrease of 537,-
$50 whites, as against a decrease OF
nearly 100000 he ten previous
years. This loss to Manhattan was
practically accounted Tor hv the in
erease attributed to The Bronx, which

ed that when the Negro population

Camden and Elizabeth.
