get heart opening.
West, unfortunately, chose to open a
small spade, and after capturing East's
king, Mr.. Langdon could see seven sure
tricks. He promptly ran off his four
tricks in clubs, East discarding a spade
on the fourth round. At this point
Mr.. Langdon was certain that the
opening lead had been from a three
card suit, inasmuch as had East held
only two spades, he would hardly have
discarded his only remaining one.
This proved to be the case, and when
Mr.. Langdon played small spade and
both opponents followed, he made
his double contract. gathering in four
clubs, three spades and one heart
trick.

West responded with one no trump
The bidding then reverted to Mr..
Langdon, and he bid two no trump

Steady Recession
In Meat Prices
Is IsDeclared Ahead
BY the Associated Press.

by lile hsSOClAlcu f-JeSs.
BLACKSBURG, Va, October O.
Dr. j. L. Maxton, assistant agricultural
economist of the Virginia Agricultural
Extension Division. predicted today a
steady decline in the prices of meat
until they are more in line with con-
sumner demand.
DR.. Maxton said the drop in price
during the past week was not unex-
pected. High prices of the past few
years have not been based on scarcity,
he said, but on wide margin of profit
for the middlemen.
Prices are up about 40 per cent, he
asserted, although about the same
number of hogs have been slaughtered
this year as compared with 1884. and
added, the price comparison was gen.
orally true of beef, sheep and poultry
Large meat supplies and consumer

~ bid of one are divided into
N two classes;
\ l. Limiting responses. which
include all no-trump responses and
raises Of partners suit, and which
Immediately tell our partner the
limits of strength of our hand
2. Exploratory responses. or bids in
a new suit, which in no way define the
maximum strength of our hand, but
do define the minimum strength in
accordance with the level at which
the exploratory response is made
These exploratory responses are all
temporarily forcing bids, and the
opening bidder is required to bid again.
When our exploratory response is
made at the level of one (the one
over-one), it allows our partner to
make his rebid at the one level also
Hence, the minimum strength nee
essary for a one-over-one is no more
than that necessary for a one no.
trump response. When the exploratory
response is made at the level of two
(such as two clubs over an opening
one-heart bid, we are taking the
bidding past the one-level, and hence
must have certain definite values in
our hand.
The delicacy involved in the one

scientific bidding that puzzles many

We reply, "One spade We are now

holding
Spades AKxxx
Hearts Xxx
Diamonds A Xxx
Clubs XXX
Again our reply is, "One spade"
Now our questioner says, How can
the original bidder possibly tell which
of these two hands you have?"
The answer is as follows: He should
assume we have the first hand or one
of equal strength until we show him
otherwise. For instance, suppose he has
a minimum or near-minimum bid with
a balanced hand. Over our one-spade
he simply rebids to one no-trump. Now
with the first hand we simply pass and
he knows we have little strength; with
the second hand we show our great
strength by now jumping the bid.
