1 , N !■ — I 1 Modern Contract I ; Bridge By Lelia Hattersley 11 No. 5 Distributional Values WHEN your hand indicates that a suit take-out is the best policy, but the sum of your honor-tricks is below the yardstick measurement for game, you should declare only a sufficient number of tricks to cover your partner’s bid. In taking out with a no trump, use the yardstick measure'ment, bidding one br two no trumps according to the indications of your partnership holding in hdnor-tricks. In short, whenever you are taking | out and it is gtill uncertain whether your partnership hands will prove congenial at your new bid, you must tread gingerly unless the sum of your honor-tricks spoils “GAME.” Oftjen however, when your partner j has made an original suit bid of one, • there may enter into your response a factor which justifi.es you in totally j disregarding the yardstick measurement of honor-tricks, so important in j most responses. This factor is ’ distribution of your hand. If your i hand is so favorably distributed as to show great length in your partner s suit, length in a second suit and complete absence of a third., as for example : S-Q 10 957 6, Ila. D-none, CI 1098653, when your partner has bid i a spade, you could ignore your Jack ' of honor-tricks and jump immediately • into a game bid. Such a proceeding ' would be’justified, by the fact that your spade strength would so solidify your partners trump holding as to | promise ho losers in that suit; your length in clubs offers the probability ■ of setting up some end cards or givp.ing your partner repeated ruffing opi port unities; and most important of all i in compensating for your deficit of .honor-tricks, your short and missing suits would enable you to trump off your opponent’s defensive strength in I honor-tricks. lc is certain that no 1 more than one honor-trick in hearts Could be cashed you, and none at ; 1 in diamonds. So that even though your partnership total of hon-or-tricks sunist up oply to the L’' 3 , which your partner’s original bid guaranteed, your practical certainty of breaking down the opponent’s de? tense.is equivalent to a strong honortrick holding when reckoned for its I assisting value to you F-. partner; ■-■ Playing Tricks As a rule the last thing that a contra ct player learns is the most imi jHjrtant thing he should know. That : is, how to count the playing tricks | in bis hand. Playing tricks' are the general 1 tricks your ow n hand may be expected rto take, if your declaration or your partner’s declaration becoihes final. • When making ah opening bid at no trumps, it is rarely possible to locate playing tricks,, other than, hpn-or-tricks, because you have iio definite , strong suit to establish. (With J a biddable 'suit, you would not de['cla.re iio trump.) Put the count i. .: ricks in the hand wii! auto-inaih-aPy inelu-le- n proportionate, . . rd tricks. . . Wi.eu sldfting into a no trump, or ' entering .a later stage of .the bidding with 'a no tfuinp dei’laTtjtion, it is often possible to count definite playing tricks according to the location | bf strength, shown by. others bitls or by the fact, of a strong minor suit in your own 4 or yoyr partner’s hand ; which can be set up. F.ut for opening ' no trump bids and no trump raises and rebids, there 'is no better- guide than the wardstlyk count of honorl tricks. The direct and sitpple method of i counting honor-tricks, so helpful in valuing no trumps, will not answer ' for raises and rebids at declared trumps, which must be played under totally, differept conditions, as a matter of fact, the difference in play of no trump and suit hands creates two almost 'totally different games; so j that a separate system of valuation Ist necessarily be used for each. The count of playing .tricks' at a suit bid- is an. easy i ; r r a pfayI er of long, experience and judgment. 1 ortunateiy for the average player, i in the' apptoach-forcihg' System what ; is an unconscious mental process with i the expert has been translated Into I a concrete form known as the distributional count. The distributional count may-*be mastered in ha'lf an hours study, and once clearly comprehended, enables any; team of players to value their hands at suit bids with the precision of-experts. (< 1332. tv I,- tta Hattersley.) ' - (W.xu Service) > Angling Pro and Con Izaak Walton said: “We may say of angling as Doctor Boteler said of strawberries: ‘Doubtless God could have made a better berry, but doubtless God never did’; and so, (If I might be judge) Cod never did make a more calm, quiet, innocent recreation tl>an angling. I'ut Doctor Johnson, a much more erudite man,, defined a fishing rod as “a stick with a hook at one end and a fool at the other.’ Civilization Built on Coal Today’s civilization requires more work than hqjnan labor can -perform. The dominant source of brain replacing energy is coal. We are today using 20 times as much coal per capita as we did'in 1850. Coal is the most important source of energy in our modern industrial civilization and has made our national life into a complicated network of Interdependent groups with duties to each other. i Faith and Hope We live by faith in the winter time, and faith is a thing of will power. When things start to grow In the spring, hope supersedes faith in our lives. Hope feeds on faith but it la born of the sunshine. —Exchange.
