Re-‘3i>9nding properly to partners preemptive bids is not the great problem that many players seem to consider it. Responder simply adds his probable quick \vinners in those announced by p:irtner—and acts accordingly. For example:

South dealer. North-South vulnerable

The bidding: South West 3 5 Pass

North gave long (and obviously wistful) consideration to his partn- er's three-spade opening, but con- cluded that with only one low spade in his hand, he did not have quite enough "outside" strength to contract for game. As North later argued: "Suppose the ace-queen of clubs lay over my king-jack. -15 they did——tl1eri only my_ two aces would produce tricks. and even ii

He was still Wearing the pure white coat he always wears in winter. Peter looked at it closely tosee it there were any brown spots. if there were any brown spots in that white coat Peter would take that as a spring sign, for in summer Jumper dresses in brown and the change is made through the spring. not all at once, but little by little. He was a little disappointed. He couldn't see a single spot oi brown. "I'm looking for signs that winter is about over. Have you seen any?" replied Peter. "No," replied Jumper. "What is more, it you will take my advice you will do your looking somewhere else and keep away irom this part oi the Green Forest." "Why?" asked Peter. He looked at his big cousin in surprise. "I don't see any reason wclw I shouldn't look around here it I want to." “You haven’t been over here late- ly. have you?“ said Juniper. "Not for quite a while," admitted Peter. “What 01 it?" “Then you don't know about Hotty the owl and Mrs. I-iooty, do you?" replied Jumper. He hastily looked all around and moved 8 little farther back under a big overllangirig bough or a spruce tree. “What about the Hootys?" asked Peter. He moved in under that bough liimseli, though why» he didn't really know. “They are nesting just a little way from here. "I! I were no big~ ger than you I wouldn't reel sate a minute around here. I don't (eel too sale myself although I am much bigger than you." said Jump- er. Peter crowded a little farther back under that brand bough. “Do you mean they have begun building a nest?

That North should not have "hung" one trick short oi game was proved when south made iour-odd, simply by finding the trump queen on side, singly guarded. Even if South had had to lose another trump trick. however. he might have been luckier in the placing of the ace-queen ol clubs.
