The term reverse" in modern
contract bidding Is one that has
gained considerable currency but is
an unfortunate choice of express
sions, because it has led to such
| widespread confusion. Reduced to
simple terms 1t is this: The bid of
a higher ranking suit after lower
ranking suit has previously been
shown (such as bidding hearts first
and then showing spades, or, as in
the above hand, bidding clubs first
and then diamonds) is technically
known as a reverse" Why, I do
not know.
However, it is agreed by all parties
that such bid shows very strong
hand, for the simple reason that it
gets the bidding up so high. There
fore, when your partner opens with
one club and subsequently bids dia-
monds, you know not only that he
has five clubs and four diamonds
but that he has very strong hand
in addition.
Since a preference for his first
suit will require your bidding at the
range of three, instead of using the
misleading term reverse" it would
be sounder policy to state that any
time you force the bidding up to
three of something you ought to
have very fine hand. II you
haven't such hand you ought to
deliberately deceive your partner as
to the exact number of cards in the
suits in order not to get the bidding
too high with an indifferent hand
so that holding
AAK95 0KJ953 o52 &64
it is better to open the bidding with
one spade (making believe that you
have only four hearts,, so that the
hearts can be shown at the range
of two and a preference made at
the same level.
The North of today should rec
ognize what an enormous hand he
has opposite a partner that could
afford to bid one club and then two
diamonds. (Such a bid denotes a
holding of at least four honor
tricks) South should be given every
inducement to bid a slam and the
Jump of five clubs is such an induce
ment, except for the players that
have some peculiar notion about a
jump to game being a shutout.
1t will be noted that the Black
wood convention is not available to
North since a response showing
even one ace would automatically
land the partnership in slam.
Then, too, had tSouth's hand been
A6 VASE oAQ82 +AQ1 1865
slam would have been just as easy
to make but North would have no
way Of ascertaining that South had
singleton spade, yet it would be
easy for South to bid slam on the
bidding suggested in the diagram
above.

that North Cardinals highly-gear-

pay, received two more bills af-
fecting the public school structure
of North Carolina.
One measure, in line with a
similar one already before the

Matheny of Rutherford to raise
the compulsory attendance law
from IA to Is. The measure has
the blessing of Governor Cherry
