not conventional because neither partner had bid a suit. But Mr. New, who is a better kibitzer than a player, did not figure it that way. He blandly showed his one ace. with a bid of five diamonds. Now Mr.' Abel realized ftiat two aces were in the hands of the enemy and six-odd was out of the question. Couldn't Bid Five Strangely enough, five diamonds can be made, owing to the very favorable distribution of the cards. But Mr. Abel made a desperate attempt to reach what he knew to be the best final contract, five no-trump. He could not bid five no-trump himself because New would construe this as asking for kings. He would show his kings at the six range. Using a device which is a part of the Blackwood convention. Mr. Abel’next bid five in a previously unhid suit hearts. That bid comifianded his partner to close out the auction by bidding five no-trump. Mr. New wasn’t familiar with this gadget either. After some thought, he passed ami the opponents took two aces and a trump trick t^ down one. Mrs. Abel’s Humanies were not too good. Playing with an expert partner his fom notruu*p call was all right. Playing with Mr. New, he should have been satisfied with game. TV-TONIGHT
