Pass your partner's opening bid ef ono unless able to improve it There are two important ways of improving partner's bid: naming another suit at which your joint cards can win more tricks; shift ing to a declaration requiring fewer tricks for scoring game.

For the present, at least, it will bo wise to consiaer tne no-trump as probably showing less strength uin a suit, sjuiu Shift partner's 1-Heart to 1-No Trump on the next hand. If he rebids his hearts you may bid 3-Hearts, allowing him to decide whether 4-Hearts, 3-No Trumps, or allowing the bidding to die will be best.
