It is undoubtedly true that North might have started the ball roll- ing a little faster by jumping to three hearts over West's one spade. ‘The state of the score, however. and the possible difficulty of later discovering whether South could at t-he same time stand a heart contract and provide spade con- rol. impelled North to bid, only t/wo hearts.
