North stayed out of the bidding
since he was afraid his hearts were
useless: and aside from the long
heart suit. his hand was not much
good And South didn't see how he
could bid four spades all by himself
when he might take only about six
spade tricks and the heart ace.
After the match, the other two
pairs suggested that South's best re-
bid is a double rather than three
spades. But one South player said
he was afraid of four club response
by North: and the other South play
er said he wouldn't have known
what to do even if North bid three
hearts in response to the double
Can you straighten us out on
this?"
We sympathize with the two South
| players but have to agree with the
other players We think South
should double rather than bid three
spades. This is, of course, a take
out double. With the actual hand
North should bid not three hearts
but four hearts; and then South
could pass without any problem at
all.
If North bid only three hearts. as
would be proper with weaker hand
South should pass. If North bic

there was a single British soldier

Gen. Sir Archibald Wavell a most
unlnformative person.
But we have the British official
announcement that the British have
withdrawn from Bengazi. What
does this mean? Gen. Wavell must
concentrate his strength elsewhere.
The taking of Bengazi added Its
quota to make up the total OF
100000 Italian prisoners captured IN
the Libyan campaign and the
amount of italian war material cap
tured and destroyed. 1t served the
purpose Of a raid at little cost 1or
the British and disastrous cost for
the enemy.
Withdrawal from BengaZi turther

of their ability TO prevent the trans

troops from Italy to Libya. With
