Los "jobbers' quieren mayo

dicese que algunos fabricantes
les han ofrecido rebajas para

 Many players make the mistake of attempting to apply a system to hands that need no system. The following interesting hand came up during the play-off for the con- tract challenge team -of-four cham pionship:
 The Bidding
 South was the dealer and opened the contracting with one diamond. West was not much interested and passed. It is an easy matter for North to read his partners hand. The least he could hold would be five diamonds headed by the queen, jack and the ace and king of hearts or the ace of hearts and ace of spades. There are no other missing cards that would make up the two and one-haIf tricks required for an opening bid. If South should hap pen to hold five diamonds to the queen ten, he would then be re- quired to hold out only the ace of hearts and the ace of spades, but would also have to hold either the queen of hearts or the king of hearts.
 With this Information North can see only one losing spade or one losing heart. and therefore jumps tho contract to six diamonds, East passes and now South must do a littia reasoning. Ills partners bid Of six diamonds assures South that he holds at least four diamonds to the ace king. and be further must hold the king and queen of spades and the ace and king Of clubs other wise his bid Of sIx diamonds would not be justified. South has ons full quick trick more ihhB re. guired ta make aB opening bid-- ths ace of spades or inc king Of hearts. With either of tbesa cards missing, south would still be lusii, fted in bidding one diamond, 70
