It is interesting to note, however, after the foregoing bidding comment, that in the normal course of events, in order to make 4 Hearts, South must correctly guess the Diamond situation. In open room D.Rhodes made this guess correctly at trick 7. In Room 2 Gottlieb was saved this trouble as Domville obligingly led the King of Diamonds at trick 2.|pg||nt|It should be pointed out, however, that he had an extremely difficult lead. His reasoning must have been that there was no other method of saving the game. Had it succeeded it would have been acclaimed in all the papers on the following day.}|pg||nt||pg||

|pg||nt|Beasley: South made a timid bid of 1 Hearth and was, of course, left in to make three overtricks. This hand is given to show an occasion when a demand bid can be made without 5½ quick-tricks, but when there are no more than four losing cards in a hand. It is probably the better way, too, to decide when to make a demand bid-to count one's losing tricks rather than the winners. }|pg||nt||pg||

There is something to be said for both sides on this hand. The hand is so strong that Game may be made with virtually a " Bust " in partner's hand and the bid can be justified as a trap for opponents who may think that, like most original game bids, it is a pure shut out.|pg||nt|On the other hand an original game bid of this hand practically precludes any chance of a slam being bid by the partner even though holding the balance of strength. In Room 2 Lightner should have signed off with 6 Hearts the lower ranking of his partner's 2 suits. |pg||nt|Beasley: The feature of this hand is the excellent bid of D.Rhodes in the open room. She made no hesitation but bid 4 Hearts after three passes. In the closed room, Gottlieb, after three passes, bid 1 Heart and his partner went a No Trump. South's jump to 3 Spades immediately brought trouble. North was led into supporting that suit and they finished up in a slam bid that could not be made.

Lightner.There was a special reason for my Double. Fearing that the opponents had a good chance of taking a small Slam at Spades, I doubled in the hope that the Partners would become confused and try to rescue each other with a Grand Slam in Hearts or even Clubs.|pg||nt|I got just what anyone should get who underestimates his opponents-a snappy re-double that made me feel and look rather foolish. I led the 7 Clubs, and the play of the Dummy by D.Rhodes soon demonstrated her fine sense of distribution. She won my first trick with the Ace of Clubs, led the 2 of Hearts and ruffed in her hand with the 7 Spades. She then led the 8 Trumps,|pg||nt|winning it with the Queen in the Dummy and once more ruffed a little heart in her own hand. She now reasoned that the four remaining Hearts would be established, two rounds of Trumps, to take out my last two poisonous fangs and the small Slam was made lay-down. 
|pg||nt|Beasley This was an interesting hand.I was worried when I had to bid again at North after D.Rhodes had bid a Spade over my 1 Heart. My hand clearly indicated a slam and I wanted to say so without there being any doubt. I decided to bid 4 Spades on the singleton Ace over 1 Spade. I applaud D.Rhodes very much for seeing exactly what I meant. She bid 5 Spades, as much as to say "It is up to you now." |pg||nt|I went 6 Spades and then Culbertson doubled. I shall not forget the expression that came over D.Rhodes's face when she heard me redouble. Not often does she let the slightest sign escape her, but here she had a poor hand and I had forced her to her to extreme limits. The double did not worry me, though I thought for a long time before I redoubled. |pg||nt|I had an idea that Culbertson hoped to force me into 7 Hearts, but my hand and the bidding indicated freaks. When D.Rhodes bid Clubs I knew two things: she did not like Hearts, and she had nothing to talk about in Diamonds. When the cards went down it was plain to D.Rhodes that she had to establish the Hearts. |pg||nt|A study of the play will show how she did it, and if it may appear that she took a chance of being overtrumped on her second lead of Hearts, the distribution would have had to be very strange. }|pg||nt||pg||

Mrs. Culbertson's 4 No Trump bid shows Lightner the 2 Aces he misses, and a King, almost certainly the King of Clubs, Lightner's 5 No Trump response shows the Heart and Diamond Aces. After Lightner's original No Trump bid, Mrs. Culbertson displays nice judgment in only bidding 6. |pg||nt|Beasley: Here is one example of the 4 No Trump convention. Mrs. Culbertson and Lightner had decided that Clubs was the suit, and after 4Clubs by West, East showed her two Aces and King. Lightner, holding the other two Aces, had to bid 5 No Trumps; there is no exception to that rule and East could bid 6 Clubs with absolute safety. Neither has additional values and the call is left there.  
|pg||nt|It is true that the Spade lead helped very much, but as the cards are it is not very difficult to make contract. }|pg||nt||pg||

|pg||nt|Beasley: East and West failed badly. There is nothing much wrong with the opening bid of a Club, and East, holding 4 honours in that suit, should have quickly visualised honour tricks in other suits in his partner's hand. His bid of 1 Hearth over 1 Diamond from North is bad. He could afford to jump the bid to 3 Clubs and then West can show his strength. |pg||nt|But, even after the Heart bid, when West calls a No Trump, East could still show his exceptional holding in Clubs, he can still bid 3 Clubs. Throughout the bidding West was entirely in the dark as to where the honours in his original suit were. }|pg||nt||pg||
