Modern Contract
brl0ge BY Leila HsasrsIey
No. 10
Responding to High,
Strength-Showing Bids

.NIHEN your partner makes an
w opening bid of three in a ma
jor or four in minor. he tells you
that he has a powerful trump suit
needing no support and outside
strength as well and that his total
of playing tricks count within two
OF game. In short, he says, that
with very little assistance in either
honor or playing-tricks, he is prac-
tically sure of his game. Such a
strong plea for assistance should
rarely go unanswered. One support
ing trick plus isa sound raise for such
"a dynamic bid. Unless your raise
is based on ruffing values, you need
not bother about your trump hold
Ing. Even a singleton will do.
When you find yourself with three
supporting tricks of which two at
least are high honor-tricks, you may
give your partner a ISLAM sugges-
tion," by jumping his major SUIT
three-bid to five.
A bid in another suit is classed
as an indirect raise. Such a declara-
tion does not necessarily show a
long suit. 1t is not really offered
as take-out, but rather to reveal
to your partner where your support
is concentrated. He may be able to
use the information for a slam bid.
Unless the opponents should over
call your partners opening game
bid, you would rarely need to consid-
er a response. In such a situation
slam bid should not be contem-
plated unless you held three or four
honor-trlcks with, perhaps, other
suDDOrt
The Coolidge examiner., 1932-09-30
The Triple Valuation of a
Hand

The danger Of driving your Op-
ponents into q successful slam bid
is always present In high competi-
tive bidding. And. at lower stages
of the bidding we are frequently
called on to consider the danger OF
pushing the opponents into a sue
cessful game contract.
With such a possibility in mind,
as well as when you must consider
penalty double. your hand must
be viewed from an entirely new an
gle, you must appraise 1t defen
sively.
Hitherto we have discussed only
aggressive valuations, that is the
appraisal of bidding and assisting
hands. But as a matter of fact. dur
ing the course of the bidding the
same hand often has to be valued
from three different angles.
First-At your own bid Count
honor-tricks and long suit tricks
both in trumps and side suits.
Second-In support of your part
ner's bid: Count honor tricks, long
suit and short suit tricks.
Third-Against opponents bid !:
Count honor-tricks and trump
tricks only. Count no long suit
tricks or short suit tricks except
rarely a singleton or void.

LEGION MEN OF
 NEW YORK BACK
 BONUS DEMAND
Eviction of the Bonus Army at Washington Has Stirred Up Senti= ment in Favor of Cash Payments

New York, Aug 26-(U. P) = Eviction of the E. E. F. from Washington has swung sentiment of the New York State American Legion in favor of immediate pay ment of the bonus. delegates to the state convention said to-day. Strength of the bonus advocates has greatly increased, according to State Adjutant Maurice Stember, who explained, however, that he was expressing only his personal opinion. "Also there is a great deal of resentment over the forcible expul- sion of the bonus army from Wash ington," Stember said. That has caused a crysta llization of senti- ment for the bonus, among both service and non-service people. l know any number of Legnionnaires who were opposed to the payment of the bonus who have shifted their position since the bonus riot at Washington" Several state legions have voted since the eviction to demand the cash bonus payment in December.

Names Of Democrats May Be Erased From
 Party Voting List
Many of Them Signed the Communist Party Call Did It Unthinkingly, for They Were Told It Was Petition for Unenl- .ployedGre Scram-
 ble to Get Names Off

Of the 300 names signed to the socialist ia Dor party petition filed with Town Clerk Dora A. Egan two days ago, checkup to-day showed that only 167 of those listed are eligible to be represented as peti- tioners.s The checkup was com pleted shortly before noon to-day. The town clerks office was be- sieged, also, with many persons seeking to have their signatures removed from the communist par tvs petition filed yesterday with Miss Egan.
 However, Miss Egan explained to-day, she is powerless to remove from either petition the names of any persons who themselves signed the petition. Ineligibi1ity to sign is being based entirely on the ques- tion of whether or not the address es credited to the signers are the same as those on the regular voting list on file in the office of the registrars of voters.
