At one of the downtown corners. amid a clangour of street car bells and whine of hastily applied brakes she alighted and began swiftly to walk east. It seemed good to be alive and young this morning. The sharp breeze off Lake Michigan leased her hat brim and blew her skirts. Susan walked very rapidly. Miss Allen was sure to deliver a scathing rebuke if she should ar- rive late. The clock in the bank on the corner said 10 minutes to g. Susan fairly ran the last few yards. and crammed herself into an ,al- ready packed elevator.
 She said Excuse me" to san un- seen male as the car shot upward. Her elbow had damned into a vest front and she flushed scarlet with confusion as she heard a muttered and quite involuntary "Ouch!" at the impact. As she stumbled cut at the 11th floor she turned to find young MT Dunbar at her heels.

: Z :

No score, rubber game. z dealt and
bid one no trump and A doubled. What
should Y now bid at either Auction or
Contract? In case Y passed, B passed
and Z sid two spades, which A doubled,
what should Y now bid?
From the foregoing discussion it
should be obvious that Y should bid
two hearts over the double. He has six
hearts and therefore an obligatory
take-out of the no trump. After making
the mistake of passing, however, the
right thing for him to do is not SO
obvious. When B also passed the
double, it was evident that he did so
because he was certain of defeating rs
one no trump bid. In other words,
both A and B have indicated strong
hands. rs subsequent bid of two
spades merelyindicated that he realized
his 10 trump bid would probably be
defeated and that he figured he had a
better chance to get out of trouble by
bidding spades.
AS double of two spades indicated
Re could defeat that bid; so Y was
confronted with a difficult problem.
The fact that he had three spades was
an argument against bidding three
hearts, but his outside hand was so
weak that there was little or no chance
for Z to make two spades. On the other
hand, Y had a strong heart suit and, if
his partner had high cards in the other
suits, he would have a good chance to
make his bid. For these reasons, the
writer is of the opinion that Y should
bid three hearts over the two spade
bid at either Auction or Contract. 1t is
close question and shows the value Of
bidding such hands at once over the
double. Then you don't get into trouble.

ARTICLE No. 10
Author Of PRACTICAL AUCTION BRIDGE"

The informatory double is still an
important factor in Auction and Con.
tract, and presents some interesting
and puzzling questions of bidding. For
example, suppose the dealer bids one
no trump and second hand doubles
Gnformatory), with what type of hand
should the dealer S partner make a bid
There is still considerable difference Of
opinion among the experts as to the
proper procedure in this situation, but
the writer has very definite ideas in
regard to it. There are four distinct
types of hands at either Auction or
Contract which should be bid by the
dealers partner over an informatory
double of M no trump. First: with a
hand as good as an original no trump,
dealers partner should redouble. For
example, with a hand of this type:
Hearts Il 49,
Clubs TX, ia
Diamonds = ], 10, 80
Spades = K, 10, 9
The redouble is a powerful weapon
when properly used and the source of
many big penalties. After a redouble,
partner should double any bid made
and try for penalties.
Second: If the dealers partner holds
as good as an original bid in a suit, he
should bid two in the suit over the
double. For example, with a hand of
this type, bid two clubs:
Hearts - 10, 4, 80
Clubs "A, K, ], ~
Diamonds - TO-,
Spades 80
By so doing, you give the exact in
formation to your, partner that you
have as good as an original bid in that
suit. 1t is the only way you can give
this exact information and for that
reason the opportunity should not be
lost.
Third: If the dealers partner holds a
set-up minor suit, he should bid two
no trump over the double. For example,
with a hand of this type, bid two no
trump:
Hearts - I, 81
Clubs - 10, A.
Diamonds "A, K, 9, IT.
Spades -,4
Here again you have the opportunity
to give this exact information to part
ner and you can only do SO by bidding
the two no trump.
Fourth: If the dealers partner holds
a hand which justifes a major suit
take-out of the no trump irrespective
r Of the double, it should also be bid over
the double. For examine with thia
type of hand, bid two spades:

Spades j, 10, T., 6, 49, :
When you hold six or more hearts or
spades, it is obligatory for you to bid
that suit over partners no trump and
the obligation is just as strong when
the no trump has been doubled. Such
a bid gives partner exact information
that you have a justi6able take out
and that information may be very
valuable.
