BOWSER IS RIGHT

There is no ieeiing that is quite so: good as knowing you are right. -Bowsar the Hound.

Reddy had done. The truth is. Red- dv had expected him to. It was a sort of game they were playing, a game they had played many times. It was a game Roddy had always won in the end, but sometimes he had been a very, very tired Fox before the game ended. Each lime

Then Bowser had guessed just what had happened. and had started to lol- low the back trail to u-yin: find the place where Reddy had leaped aside and so broken his own trail.

”That red rascal thinks he has fooled me. but he hasn't," thought Bowser. ”I'il find his trail again if it takes me all day. It I keep circl- ing on both sides or this back trail.

Before we get around to the point-count requirements ior rais- ing partner's opening suit-bid we'd better have a. brief review ol how the responders should eval- unto his hand.

As in all cases, he counts up his honor cards. applying 4 points to each ace. 3 'to each king, 2 to each queen and 1 to each Jack. (M- ter short practice, this can be done almost at a glance.) Next. ass ' that responder has ade- uete trump suppo for a raise. he adds 1 point to very card in every suit excess at three cards in that suit; he adds 2 points more it his trump length runs to 6 cards or more; and he adds 1 point more it he has a void in a side suit or two slngieton side suits. He de- ducts 1 point if his trump support is only three cards long; and he also deducts 1 point it his hand pattern is 4-3-3-3.

For a single raise or partner's suit-bid, responder must have 6 to 10 points - neither more nor ie

A higher jump-raise of Dart- ner's opening one-bid - as, a raise or one spade to four spades - is as always a shut-out bid which does not announce a very strong hand. It will contain more distributional points than the double raise. but very rarely should it be based on more than 6 points in high cards.
