PASTE aonnnananai I 'J. THE OTTAWA JOURKAU 23 (kMlmmMSm ASKING BIDS PROOF AGAINST INTERFERENCE. "THE new technique of slam bid-1 dir.g through the use of ask-inf bid ha so deadly accurate that it has induced a mad scramble on the part of slam defender to find effective interference methods. As a matter of cold fact, the asking bid system is aided rather than obstructed by opponents' attempted interference. In-tead of shutting out the correct responses, opponents' bid often ssve a round of bidding for the side approaching the slsm.

I have yet to see a hand in which the de-tenders could have interrupted successfully the flow of information conveyed by asking bids. South, dealer. Both sides vulnerable.

South now makes an asking bid. Without West's double. North having ru? ace would have to sign off. at leat temporarily, with four spades. The redouble, however, shows merely second round control of the asked suit.

ISouth now investigates how many heart tricks must be lost, by making his second asking bid. I Exactly the same situation as before. North show second round heart control by redoubling. ISouth now knows that only one heart can be lost but stilt is uncertain about the club situation. North may have the x.

To find out South makes a repeated asking bid in clubs. Inquiring about third round control. zNorth shows third round club control by means" of hi third redouble. IIThe six spade bid now is made in almost absolute safety, as accurately as though North and South had seen esch other's hand. Obviously, the only thing that could have defeated the beautifully todayl shining white teeth sre vitally So switch to Ipana and massage, never a Uxmry RtS oxn rIAOt JN CAXADa7 bid slant would have been a fantastically bad adverse lay of cards, such as an opening lead of a heart and immediate ruff.

As it was, the declarer had a winning the opening king of clubs lead with the ace, ruffing a second round in dummy, ruffing a diamond into his own hand, and ruffing a third club with one of dummy' high trump. Since the club suit broke 4-3. only on more club had to be ruffed, but even against a 8-2 division there wss no danger. Without the opening lead of the heart ace. declarer, of course, could have mad an overtrick, but this would have involved a slight risk and he wisely considered only hit small slam TODAY'S QUE8TION.
