TP*' Contract f Bridge ■e: Bidding Quiz Your right-hand opponent bids One Diamond, both sides vulnerable. What would you bid with each of the following five hands? 1.6AQJ10 VKQJ9 9 8 6Q732 2.6KQ83 VKQ4 ♦ AJ4 6K95 3.6Q8 VA 9J8543 +AJ762 4.6 AQJ6 V AJ97 ♦ - * KQJ84 5.6AK985 VK83 9 7 6AQ76 1. Double. Two main purposes are served by the informa tory double. One is to announce the values for an opening bid; the other is to try to find the best trump suit. It would be wrong to bid z heart or a spade. Instead cf trying to guess which suit will serve best as trump, it is better to elicit this information by asking partner to designate his long suit. 2. One notrump. Here there is no need to look for a trump suit because the hand is clearly a notrump type. Furthermore, you have the proper point count for a notrump bid. The best way of showing the balanced distribution and the high-card content (16 to 18) is by bidding a notrump directly. Partner then carries on as though you had bid one notrump as dealer. A double would suggest interest in a suit— which is not what you are looking for here. 3. Pass. There is little to be gained by bidding two clubs, but much to be lost, it partner lacks club support you may wind up badly mauled, for you have diamond and club losers galore and may suffer a ghastly penalty. Overcalls should be based much more on playing tricks than point count, and a sound overcall is therefore marked primarily by length and strength in the suit you bid. 4. Two diamonds. A cuebid of the adverse suit is a glorified form of takeout double. It is usually based on a void and proclaims immediately that there is a strong probability of game in partner’s best suit. As a matter of fact, the hand shown barely makes the grade for a cuebid. That’s how strong a call it is! 5. Double. The double is preferred even though you have a good suit of your own. A spade overcall, while sound enough from the standpoint of safety, would not begin to express the all-around promise of the hand. In competing against an opening bid, the main emphasis is on the degree of strength you hold. An overcall in the one level generally denotes less than opening bid strength; a double indicates at least an opening bid; a cuebid announces much more than a normal opening bid. Tomorrow: No way out.

DEAR ABBY: Ever since I became an adult my mother has been pushing poor Dad around. She interrupts him to correct his grammar, tells him what to say, what to wea: md what to do. And when he talks on the telephone she literally stands beside him and prompts him as if he were three years old. Dad doesn’t like to be treated this way, but after a lifetime of fighting with competitors in business, all he wants now is peace at home. Occasionally he tries to assert himself, but it’s such a hassle, he gives up and Mom wins again. I’ve tried getting Mom interested in volunteer work, especially working with small children to satisfy her urge to boss somebody around, but she finds destroying Dad’s manhood inch by inch more to her liking. Don’t tell me it’s none of my business. If I hadn’t grown up poor Dad wouldn’t be in all this trouble. He’s taking the heat meant for me. I wish I could help him. SORRY FOR DAD DEAR SORRY: Don’t waste too much sympathy on "poor Dad.” No man can be pushed around unless he surrenders his manhood. If you could convert some of your wishbone to "poor Dad’s” backbone, you’d both have it made. DEAR ABBY: I went to a charity luncheon as a guest of a friend of mine. One of the door prizes was a trip to Hawaii. I won it. Afterwards, one of the women came up to me and congratulated me and she said, “I hope the organization can expect a nice donation from you.” To tell you the truth, I hadn’t even considered such a thing. I don’t want to appear cheap. Should I send in the price of a luncheon ticket for a donation?

Mom’s treating Dad like a three-year-old

LOVELY HULA HANDS DEAR HANDS: It would be a nice gesture. |P. S. Why not be a sport and make it a little more than just the price of the luncheon?! DEAR ABBY: Recently I was in a drug store when a woman, who appeared to be about 60, came in grumbling about her “old age.’’ The druggist, a good friend of mine, pointed to me, and said: “This old gent is 87, and he seems to be doing all right.” The woman asked me how I did it, and I rephed: “I don’t smoke or drink, I attend church regularly and never fool around with more than one woman at a time.” She looked me in the eye, and asked: “Mister, what do you do for fun?” I told her that I wandered thru graveyards and copied unusual inscriptions from the tombstones. It’s true, but I’m sure she didn’t believe me. L. L., MORAVIA, N. Y. CONFIDENTIAL TO J. A. H., M. D. IN MINNEAPOLIS: The next time I come in for my checkup. I’m going to weigh YOU, doctor! For your health’s sake, watch that girth-control. So many people love and need you. Problems? You’ll feel better If you get It off your chest. For a personal reply, write to ABBY: Box No. 89700, L. A., Calif. 90069. Enclose stamped, self-addressed envelope, please. Hate to write letters? Send $1 to Abby, Box 60700, Los .Angeles, Cal. 90069, for Abby’s booklet. “How to Write Letters for All Occasions.”
