Show THE OGDEN POST EASY LESSONS IN AUCTION BRIDGE 6I By PAUL IL SEYMOUR Author el 'Highlights m Auction Bridge Copyright hy Hoyle, Jr. Article Six. Original No Trump Bids (Continued.) a no tramp bid IN CONSIDERING ere s few restrictions which should be mentioned: Frequently s band will meet all of the requirements of a no trump bid d end also contain a suit with ample support for a bid of that suit Either a no trump or a suit bid "may be made; which shall It be? All of the rules of Auction hare been determined from the mathematfive-car- ical law of averages by trying a large number of experiments, and It has d been found that a good suit bid Is much safer than a no trump, especially when the hand contains a worthless doubleton. Therefore, If all bids had equal game-goinpossibilities the suit always would be chosen, but because of the various counts the no trump has the greatest game-goinpossibility. It requires but three odd tricks to make game In no trump while four odd are necessary In a major suit and five odd In a minor. Taking these differences Into consideration it has been found that most hands of the type will produce game oftener at no trump If the long suit Is a minor, but that the chances tor game are better with the suit as trump If that suit Is a major. Therefore, we obtain the simple rule that when holding a hand from which a bid of a suit or of no trump may be made, to bid the suit Jf It is a major but to bid no trump if the strong suit Is a minor. Another matter of Importance In a no trump declaration Is the distribution of the cards In the various suits The most favorable distributions for 44-3-a no trump bid are 4 54-2-4 while and are and Increasingly more dangerous In other words, two doubletons are very undesirable unless both are protected suits; a singleton Is decidedly objectionable; and being void of a suit prohibits a no trump bid. The reasons for this are easy to see. If the bidder Is very short of a suit some one at the table la probably very long in that suit, and If the opponents open l and dummy does not have it stopped (he opponents are quite sure to take fife, or six tricks In It before the declarer can get the I lead. It is not wke t&gyndon a good no trump becausa of holding a singleton Ace or Klng,Vnce even. If that suit Is led, the declarer could expect to stop It by taklfig the first trick. However, If the hand has a worthless Singleton much more heed should be given to IL A major worthless singleton Is not nearly so dangerous as a minor, because If second hand holds a powerful major suit he Is quite sura to bid It while he would Invariably pass when holding an equally strong minor suIL A hand which contains two suits of at least five cards, either of which Is strong enough for an original bldt " and Is conIs called a sidered the strongest possible hand at Auction when played with that suit for trump which best fits the partner's hand. A no trump should not be bid when holding a We find a slight difference between an original bid by third hnnd and one by dealer or second hand because third hand's partner, by passing, has Informed him that he does not hold four sure tricks Therefore, third hand should have 2H quick tricks In order to make an original bid of one. When we reach fourth hand this same condition exists but there Is another reason why fourth hand should have added strength before making an original bid. After three players have passed, unless fourth five-car- g g above-mentione- d Hand has an especially strong holding the Indications are that the cards are very evenly divided, and that fourth hand could not make garnet which should be the goal aimed at by every bid. If fourth hand passes, the hand Is not played, but If he bids, It opens up a new round of bidding and the opponents may start a secondary bid upon which they may be able to help each other sufficiently to go game. Therefore, unless fourth hand has at least one quick trick more To Freshen Furniture GLADYS LEONA WILSON Equal parts of olive oil and turpentine, epplled with a flannel cloth, form an Ideal polish to keep the shine on Service for Gladys Leona Wilson were held on Wednesday afternoon in the Thirteenth ward chapel, with Bishop E.
