SOLUTION TO PREVIOUS CON.
 TRACT PROBLEM

It is not difficult to teach the be- ginner at contract that an ace will take just one trick. True enough. sometimes 1t will help establish a suit-and is & handy thing to have around in a bridge game.
 But, as an ace will take only one trick, why will people rebid it? When you give your partner cer- tain raise or a certain bid and 1t takes a definite number of tricks to make that raise or bid. bear in mind on your future bidding no: to reuse those values. or your partner will find that he will be short an ace or king to make his contract.
 The Bidding
 North's jump to two no trump is a forcing bid. South's response of four spades is a slam try. North has a nice hand for two no trump. and when partner bids four spades. he is entitled to try for the slam.
 The Play
