A 10 R, A5 x a AKQxx The partner's response is two Do trumps. The opening bidder must now think carefully how to ascertain the slam g:b-hmuu without bldding be- yond safety limit. In this situation, you should visualize the weakest hold- ings which your partner may have for his raise. Assume that he has no five- card suit, but has raised you on the absolute minimum ible in & short-suited responding hand—three kings or the equivalent spread over three suits, or a trifie less because there is something in every suit. Attribute to him, for example, ) A S 0 x“atf ®) & 51 5. & XX [0} 2 3 . K x x B8 h%a A5 and you will reslize that though all three are minimums of about the same strength as far as your partner knows. thelr probabilities vary widely.

Quietly slipping out of their sight for & visit to the 2 Ellis for water, the President gave the reporters a few thrilling moments be- fore they located him. One can almost hear the President's chuckle when they finally found him. More than once he has had them guess- ing by such antics. It was T. R. who was fond of pull- ing such things on the newspaper men assigned to cover his movements. Frank B. Lord, formerly Washington corre- spondent for half & dozen or more met- ropolitan newspapers, and now busy at a Government job, recalled a similar joke that T. R. pulled on the news- paper men of his day. “We had made the swing ’'round the circle,” says Lord, “and brought up in Memphis to attend a two-day session of a convention. When the had been concluded, the schedule call for the departure of the presidential y late the next afternoon for the cane brakes, where T. R. was to spend 10 days hunting. “We retired late and very weary— traveling with Roosevelt was strenuous business. When we awoke, we learned, to our great dismay, that the President had played a joke on us. Instead of waiting for the train to which his private car to be attached he had ordered a special engine and left the city before we were up. There was no train making conn on which we could follow- for eight hours. “There we were high and dry in Memphis, with our charge . away to the wilderness. To add to our distress, there was a Nation-wide telegraphers’ strike and it was difficult to get dispatches through under any conditions. “By chance I happened to think of & good friend of mine at Lake Providence, La., where the President was to embark and strike out for the hunting grounds.
