CONTRACT BRIDGE

NORTH was certainly justified in being very optimistic in the hand below. but his final call was the height of indiacretion.

South dealer.

Both sides vulnerable.

A mere glance at Wcsi.'s dia- Inond holdin is enough to prove that South didn't make the seven- diamond oontract. True, he went down only one trick, 100 points. but there wan also the little mat.- tar of n gruid slam that would have been ironclad at. spades or notrumpt

In the very natural (and rather warm) dis 'on thst. followed, North defended his own raise to seven diamonds in the most vig- orous terms. Pointing out that South had bid the suit. three times. Considering this (North argued), the diamond nee. single- ton though it was. should have been "ample solldincation."

South's rejoinder was simple and direct: he asked North what he would have bid on South's cnrda - originally, and over North's two spade and tour- club bids respectively. Norllfl case was badly weakened by the tact. that he had no answer.

The truth is, of couru, that North's conclusion About the com- bined dtsmond suit was simply wishful thinking. South's repealed reblda in diamonds did not. neces- sarily show the three top cuda. Thcpe rcbids were forced by the sitiiuion tiaouf

The ulient. point of Lhe hand was that North. having made I series of forces, should not. have attributed such high value to his own singleton diamond nce. In- stead of leaping to seven dia- monds. he should have made the far safer and equally construc- tive call of six notrump, and even if he missed the grand atam he would show a neat. profit.

Never drive in the country with. out watching all croal roads. It you see a car approaching from a erosii road, don't just keep the accelerator pressed to the floor board. The other driver may have poor eyesight. be drunk, or a moron. Never speed towhrds a red. light because you know its going to turn green before you get there. The cemetery is full of people who did that. 3
