Contract Bridge

By Josephine Culbertson CK£Q3QL ACE-SHOWING RESPONSES

One of the prime reasons that "ace-showing" responses to two- bldS 8TB not imrl; 0f the Culbertson System. is s-Xem-nllilcd in the follow- ing deal:

Bouthxdéaler. . .. Both side: vulnerable.

‘QQJIOBG 105

East Pass s Pu: Pass Pas: North and South vlere using ace-showing responses, therefore North's bid of three clubs was automatic.

(Another tenet of this ace-show- ing system (alter tum-bids) is that the opener himself remains the supreme arbiter of the final contract; i.e.. the responder is in e. sort of Strnltjacket throughout the auctlon- he must nnswer nil “question? that are put to him. but he must not ta-ke final action on. his own responsibility.)

That the ﬂCE-ShUWlIlg convention is at best a mixed blessing is proved by the fact that West was tolri which suit to open against six spades! Knowing‘ that North had the club ace, West quickly selected a heart, and that choice in itself was enough to defeat the slam. As a matter of fact, South was in a desperate position, he tried to save himself by inking a club finesse to his own jack. hoping to discard a heart on dummy! third club.‘ but this merely resulted in a two- trick defeat!

It should be observed that if West had hot been given -such excellent. truthful information, he would have had to "toss n coin" between hearts and clubs for his opening lead! Surely. it would be better from the declarer‘s poini- orf view to hnve this 50% chance for the contract. than virtually no chance at all“ What is more. it the partners hnd not been saddled with the ace-showing convention, they could have easily reached the same six-spade contract without reveal- ing too much. and with North as declarer. Then East would have had quite n problem-to select the only lead. hearts. that could delcllt

the contract!

when others may be hungry Am] that happiness is the gteﬂtﬂg happiness of all, though they may not know it. Happy Jack the Gray Squirrel rgvas working lrom sun- up to sun-down, with a little time out for rest during the miqdlo o! the day. Perhaps he didn't res: vcry comfortablely then, tearing others would get moro- than their share of the nuts and acorns. 1t was just so with his cousins, Rusty the Fox Squirrel, Chatterer the Red Squirrel, even Striped Chipmunk, 1 As long as they were harvesting ‘Ln different places all was quiet, but whenever the Squirrel cousins .were at work under or in the same itree there was much quarrelinz. "They quarreled over whose tree it lwas ivlwh of course it didn't be- .long to any oi’ them. They sc- \cused each other o! taking more [than their share. They scolded lone another. They called each other names. When their mouths were not full their tongues went almost as fast as their busy, scur- rying feet. They tried to drive each other away and couldn't. pi course not. Thai: was a- waste of time and time was precious. Every minute wasted that way was a nut or acorn lost to some one elso So they quarreled more with their tongues and tails that with teeth and claws. You didn't know they could fight with their tails? Well. perhaps they don't exactly tight with their tails, but neither do they with their tongues when it comes to actual fighting. But no sell- respecting _Squirrel would think he was doing himself jus- tice in a quarrel if he didn't add a Jerk of his tail to every wag o! his tongue, It sometimes seems as it tongue and tail must be joined so that when one moves the other must at the same time. Now all this scolding and quar- rellng by the Sulrrel cousins was part o! the joy of the harvest. Some folks are made that way. They are happiest when quarrel- ing, or even fighting. It seems queer. but so it is. we folks never are happier than when the?! are scolding. It is so with the Squirrel folk. Perhaps it is sim- nly that they love the sound o! their own voices and lust as some folks love to sing while they wont the soulrrcl cousins love to scold while they work. The harder thev work the. more they scold. or so it seems. This was especially true oi‘ Haplpv Jock vand Chatterer. es- pecially the latter. He slwsvs seems m be trying to make up will‘. his tongue for what he lacks in size. He really is a very small DH- son. although to hear him you wouldn't think he knows it.
