Today A Wednesday : ITS GREAT SYLVIA SIDNEY WM. COLLIER JR. In DISCUSSED Suit Take Out - Is Important By MRS. WILLIAM H. QUINN Culbertson Associate Mrs. William H. Qnlnn, Cul bertson associate, today outlines the suggested bidding and play on board 17 ot the recent Statesman tournament: No one vulnerable. North dealer North ft A Q x AKQ Q 10 9 xx X X West East ftKx ft J 10 9 xx V J x x x x V x x AJx TKxx ft Q 10 x ft J 9 x South ft X X I V X X X XX ft A K x x x The bidding: North East South West lft(l) P.(2) tft(S) P.(4) 3N-T() P. P. P. Analysis of the bidding (Cul bertson system). (1) North has 3H honor tricks and a shaded biddable suit. The use of the shaded biddable suit here is appropriate because of the added value in honors. When you use a shaded biddable suit, there must always be a compensation for the weakness ot the suit. (2) East would like to make a defensive overcall if possible, but his hand is too weak. A bid of two would promise about five playing tricks, Including one and one half honor tricks. (3) South makes a suit take out. There are three kinds of suit take outs: (a) a "few over one" take out (b) a minimum take out in a lower ranking suit, (c) Forc ing take out. A take out in a lower ranking suit necessarily places the bidding at the range ot two. IVt honor tricks must be held aand usually a five card suit. The minimum take out ot two clubs Is an encouraging bid. It is a step forward in the bidding. (4) This pass is evident. (5) North feels that three no trump is the shortest route to game. Several of the teams were left in a two no trump contract. North must bid three no trump. It he bids two no trump. South will pass. Their score will be: 70 2 N-T 30 Extra trick 60 part score 150 They should score: 100 3 N-T 300 game bonus 400 Discoverer of Pollen Secret Dies at Dalles THE DALLES. Ore.. Jan. 15 (JP)Tt. G. E.
