There is nOt1ceaple IN many play.
ers the tendency to overapproach
In the bidding. Involved sequence
figures lead to confusion and there
is little doubt that straightforward,
direct bid, which gives a complete
description in one call, is invariably
the superior call. Sometimes a COM
plete description of ones hand can
not be given in one bid because the
hand is of the "in-between" variety.
In such cases temporizing bids may
be necessary.
When partner opens with one

If your hand Is just about the equal
of an opening bid, you should Jump

preaching with some other suit.
In today's hand I see no merit in
North's bid of two diamonds. He Is
convinced that the final contract
should be in spades and he has the
equal of an opening bid (l3 points,
counting high cards and dstribu-
tom. Proper procedure would,
therefore, have been jump to three
spades, forcing to game. This COM
pletes his duties toward the hand
and would, in the actual instance,
have blocked East out of the auction
with his lead-directing call. Casts
bid, to be sure, does not have the
sanction of this department, though
1t must be conceded that It did work
out well for his side0
The queen of hearts was opened

his downfall. He had resigned him.

and placed his faith in the chance
that the queen and jack Of diamonds
would both fall by the third round,
establishing the ten for a discard

materialize he was defeated a trick
Declarer could have made the
hand. When the queen Of hearts
was played and East did not over
take there was no dnager in duck
ing. Surely East had at least five
hearts and If West could be stripped
of the suit club trick could be
established by leading low toward
the jack. thus providing for the
discard of a losing heart out of
