CENTRALLY LOCATED-- - - Close to th& Court c|i,C •^*r; Your vote and support will be appreciated at the . Republican Primary--April 12, 1932 * -Vol 'fur *v'; Probably the. most difficult thing for player to decide is when to bid, and frequently the player will hold a hand that requires some thinking before Waking a bid. Sometimes you hold cards that would justify a bid from J*>u if you knew the cards in your '^(artner's hand, but as you are not a "•Bind reader and your hand does not *-..^guitain a thoroughly sound original . |£id, the best thing for you to do is to .. -.pass. Bridge »s a game of high cards, ficcs, and kings, and if you have no ace .» pr king, no matter what oth^r cards u hold, you should pass if it is your j open the bidding. If you have •in ace and king and three other small •:«ards of one suif, it is advisable to bid • that suit once. It isn't much of a hand ct course,, but your partner must have Something to Shoot at. You must tell Tpm something about your hand. You •re playing a partnership game and it is your duty and part of your contract to inform your partner at your earliest (Opportunity the nature of your hand. It is perfectly safe to assume that Nearly all of the best players play alike. There is very little difference in the (lay of the best players and the bidding therefore is doubly important. Make apund bids originally or pass, There is Bo middle course here. The original bid (iust- have a meaning and if you bid jBriginally without high cards, without Cftrds that will take tricks, your bid is "Ifiisleading and is known and rccognized tts the Boob Bid. < Practically all Ruction and Contract Mayers who have played these games " fbr any length of time realize that it is bad policy to make a bit! with a hand that is too weak to justify the bid. They realize that such bids are unfound but cannot seem to resist the temptation to bid. Their theory seems be that the dealer runs nq risk by becanbe his opponents are sure to take turn oat. That theory would be all right if the partner of the weak bidder always could tell whether the bidder was bidding on a strong or weak hand; but that, of course, is impossible. Players who persist in making weak bids end up by losing the confidence of their partners and as a result lost many a game and rubber that they should have won. Don't let the bidding mania" get you or you will soon live tq regret it. Lie low when you do not hold the cards. There is a policy ot masterly inactivity which, at times, i$ most effective. Try it out and you will's be surprised at the results.

Z dealt and bid one spade, A two diamonds, Y two spades and B passed. What should ~K now bid with the foregoing hand antfc why, at either Auction or Contract? • -< In the opinion of the writer, Z should now bid two no trump over the tw<& spades. He knows that his spade bid il a four-card bid and that only very good support by his partner will enabl*« him to score game. He also knows that1 he has a double.stop[>er in the diamond suit which will probably be opened a(t„ no trump. For these reasons, it look» like a better chance to score game at no trump than at spades. The following are the hands held by all four players?
