While the pre-emptive bid is pri-

attacking weapon. After all, when you
have seven playing tricks in your own

THIS last statement brings us to one
more phase Of the four aces pre-
emptive bid; such bids should be made
only when your hand is not above
average in high cards. When above
average in nigh cards, you can afford
to open with bid of one and let things
develop normally. Once in while, a
one-bid will permit the opponents to
enter the bidding where pre-emptive
bid would have shut them out, but for
one adverse game that an improper
pre-emptive bid will shut out, there
will be a half dozen slams which you
will miss.

that Gray offered to bet him on the
high spade the next five hands.
THE above is somewhat fantastic,
but it is what happens even in
the beSt-regulated poker games, and
is one of the reasons We prefer bridge.
However, to our horror, We recently
heard of an innovation in bridge which
is supposed to have become popular
somewhere in China. Undoubtedly it
was invented by bandits. The idea Is
as follows:
Each rubber of bridge Is separate.
You play for certain stakes, but any
time hand is passed out, the stakes
for that rubber are automatically
doubled.
Suppose, for example, that North
and South start out by bidding and
making a grand slam, and have 1000
points above the line and 210 below.
On the next deal, North, in fourth
position, holds a tremendous hand.
The other players have all passed.
Normally, North would bid and win
the rubber. Instead, he passes the
hand out, thus doubling the stakes.
On the next hand, East is fourth.
He has jack high. There are three
passes, and he realizes that North
and South are again sitting back,
hoping to double the stakes once more.
He must bid, even though he knows
that he is heading for a terrific set.
We have not played this game as
yet, but it certainly has possibilities.
THE object of contract bridge is to
win as many points as possible
when holding cards and to lose as few
points as possible when holding poor
cards.
With hand such as the following

 West returned a club; South won with tho acc and ruffed his last club in dummy.
 The stage was set for the final play, and now South did not care about tho location of the missing spade honors. He led the 10 of spades and, when East did not cover, permitted West to win.
 West was helpless. A spade return would Do into declarer's aces Jack; Q club or diamond lead would permit 6 ruff in dummy, and discard of the jack of spades.

West had ono of those hands which arouse hope of defeating the adverse contract as soon aS the dummy goes down. He could see three apparently sure tricks and another that looked fairly certain; but in bridge you never can tell whether Q "sure" trick in tho hand will be there when tho cards are played.
 Today's hand was played at rub- Der bridge and when the declarer, South, surveyed his dummy he was not too confident of game. Lots of things could happen either way.
