The Unusual No-Trump

The Unusual No-Trump
The unusual no-trump" is a
way Of asking partner to bid a
minor suit diamonds or clubs) i.
For example:
South West North East
10 Pass 2A Pass
Pass INT
West does not want TO play
the hand at any level of no
trump. He is asking East to
bid clubs or diamonds. Typi-
cally, West would have I'VE
cards Of each minor suit, with
only moderate strength. with
a really strpng hand West
would have bid at his first turn
instead Of passingD West hopes
to push the opponents beyond
their depth or to land his part
ner in some REASONABLE part
score contract in clubs or dia-
monds.
To put it another way. the
unusual no-trump is a takeout
double-asking for q response
in a minor suit.
How to Recognize
When is a no-trump bid I'M
usual. and when is 1t q normal
bid with a natural meaningP
All opening bids in no-trump
are natural bids. If you open
the bidding with one, two or
more no-trump, you have a
strong balanced hand. If your
partner passes, you are willing
to play the hand at no-trump.
With very few exceptions the
same is true Of responses. If
your partners opens the bid
ding and you respond in no.
trump. you are willing to play
the hand there; you are not
asking your partner to bid a
minor suit.
In short. the side that opens
the bidding makes normal bids
In no-trump. In general, un-
usual no-trump bids are made
only by the side that has not
opened the bidding.
An overcall Of one no-trump
Is q normal bid, showing bal
anced distribution and is to 10
points. Even q player who
opens the bidding with MT
with only IL to IA points still
needs q strong hand Of Is to
10 points If he bids MT over
an opponents opening bid.
A Jump overcall Of 2 Mt is,
however, unusual; partner is
expected to bid his better
minor. For example:
South West North East
Ia INT
West wants his partner to bid
q minor suit. If West had a
very powerful balanced hand
he would double one spade and
would bid no-trump at his next
turn.
When q player is known to
have a weak hand (if. for ex-
ample, he has passed origi-
nally), any no-trump bid he
makes is unusual rather than
natural.

INDEPENDENCE, Mo.
1t is melancholy fact of American history that US.
Presidents for the most part, are long out of Office
before they are appreciated February is a reminder
that most revered Chief Executives Washington
and Lincoln gained most Of their regulations for great
ness only after they were safely laid to rest.
And Harry S. Truman believes there is handful Of
former Presidents who have been properly hon.
ored at ALL In the years of his retirement Mr. Truman,
of two living exPresidents, has more taken
up his lifetime hobby, the study of American history.
Characteristically, he is shaking it up bit!
In his book-lned Office in the new Truman Memorial
Library near his home in Independence, he told us
this: 1.-THE best way to make history exciting and
meaningful through study Of the lives and deeds Of
our great leaders, Yet, although have had 80 Presi-
dents since 1889. it's rare adult or child today who
can reel off the Of more than dozen, let alone
say whether they were any good and why!
Even George Washington, Mr. Truman believes, is
often moderated Although he served two terms in
Office, most of usually think of him as general on
a big white horse. Few know what he did at all as
President except be first!
But Mr. Truman has his own ideas about the most
overlooked and moderated Chief Executives. He thinks
we ought to re-evaluate the following four.

NEWS WHILE 1T is NEWS

"The friends of this paper will
please hand us in news items when
they are fresh. We prefer not to
publish birth after the child is
weaned, a marriage after the hon.
eymoon is over, or the death of a
man after his widow is married
again." With these words from the
hand of some unknown fellow
struggler in the newspaper field,
we begin a few comments on the
subject of news when it is news.
Only this week we had to send
back to one of our correspondents
an article about birthday party
which happened over month ago.
This is not news. Nor is it news
as a robbery and breaking in of a
church holds his usual weekly OF
monthly service at a church.
One of our favorite correspond
ents in peaceful community is
good at many things, but consis-
tently omits such sensational news
as a robbery and breakin of a
home, automobile wreck, etc.
Sometime back, woman in an
other state, who thought someone
would be interested in the wedding
of a daughter who had dwelled
briefly years ago in one of our
communities, sent long account
of the wedding four weeks old
and a two-column picture of the
bride. We were urged to print it
all, and the writer would be glad
to pay the bill. She probably didn't
care that it cost us 81 to print
this picture, for she never paid
any attention to the bill we sent
her.
Every month someone sends in
accounts of weddings three weeks
to three months old. We do not
print them of course. Such waste
of money it would be when all the
facts of interest in the case are
long since known to those who are
really concerned.
We could do a lot better by the
news of the villages if all CORES
pondents would take note of i'm
provement they could easily make
in their writing. Much could be
learned by reading their copy after
it appears in print. In writing VI
