DO YOU MAKE
THESE COMMON ERRORS?
l. - -


listen at him singing" There
are two mistakes here: Cd One may
look at, point at, smile at another;
but one always listens to. % 1t Is
better usage to use The possessive
pronoun "his" since 1t places the
emphasis logically on singing, rather
than on him. Correct: Listen TO his
singing.
"I have no doubt but what he will
come" But what" Is awkward,
ambiguous, and out Of date, though
some writer's still use it. Note the
Improvement in this better con-
struction: I have no doubt that he
will come.
"I read in the paper where a ship
was sunk" This Is nonsense, for
it states that ship was sunk in the
paper. Do not say, "I read where.
I saw where, I heard on the radio
where" etc. Correct: I read in
the paper that a ship was sunk.
I heard on the radio that a ship was
sunk.
"He was hung for murder" In
good usage, only objects are hung,
as pictures, flags, decorations. Per-
sons are hanged" Better say: He
was hanged for murder.
IT thank you kindly" This is g.
common misuse that should be
avoided, especially in business cor
respondence. Il thank you kindly"
says literally II am being kind in
thanking you" Better say: thank
YOU very much.

Opening lead: King Of diamonds.
1t Is difficult enough, in many
cases, to reach a sound slam con-
tract when partner is putting up
the best possible bidding, but when
the ultimate Is reached, despite
partners effort to becloud the Is
sue, laurel wreath Of special splen-
dor Is in order. North assumed the
role of Jekyll and Hyde. His first bid
of four spades does not have our
sanction, but he changed his per-
sonality in time to make very fine
bid the next time 1t came his turn.
The hand illustrates point which
we have recently been stressing:
That the singleton Is the deciding
factor in multitudes Of slams. Note
that If North's hearts and diamonds
are interchanged there is no slam
because of the loss Of two diamond
tricks. Possession Of the right SIN
gleton makes hundreds Of points
worth of difference.
We object to North's first bid OF
four spades because there Is no oc-
casion to crowd the bidding with
hands of this type. The splendid
trump support, the singleton Of the
adverse suit and the good side suit
are all factors that should make
North bullish about the hand and
he should allow himself plenty of
bidding space to describe these var
ious features. Possession OF three
aces by South Ga holding which In
this case is by no means remote)
will make the slam an odds-on fav-
orite. The hand, therefore, lends it.
self ready to treatment in the
Blackwood manner.
In the methods we eSpouse the
recommended bid Is a one round
force of three clubs. South will then
show his second suit and North may
then follow with jump in spades,
fixing that suit as trump. with
spades as trump South should make
an effort toward slam by bidding
five clubs. This should be Interpreted
as a cue bid rather than an attempt
to play the minor suit when North
has raised spades SO violently. At
this point North holds the key to
the success of the slam in the form
of the singleton diamond and
should bid six spades.
On the actual bidding when
North leaped to four spades, South
was willing to take his chances on
a slam if North could protect
against the loss Of two diamonds.
What was the logical way to find
out? 1t was pointless to show one
of the aces because it was perfectly
evident that North would be able
to do no more than return to flve
spades. Since there was no time to
show both aces, South concluded
that he would imply that he had
them both, in this sequence, by
bidding five spades. This in plain
language was intended to say:
Partner, everything else Is under
control but the diamond suit, which
the enemy has bid. If you can take
care of please bid slam. North de-
coded the message properly and
contracted for six spades. To repeat:
A sudden step beyond game to five
in a major, when nothing has pre-
yiously been said about a suit the
opponents have bid should be taken
as requet to partner to bid slam
If he has only one loser in the ad-
verse suit.
