McKENNEY America's Card Authority Written For XEA Service Little did I realize when I published a series of articles on the point-count system last August, that I was going to cause a national controversy among bridge players. The articles based on the book.

"The Point-Count System of Bidding in Contract Bridge," by Fred -L. Karpin. I always have felt that some mathematical bidding system could be worked out. and from the many manuscripts that I have received. there are many people who have the same idea.

A. Moyse. editor publisher of "The Bridge World." America's only bridge jiagazine. wrote an article recent- entitled. Why I Dislike the t-3-2-1 Count." "Sonny" is a firm believer in the honor-trick count.

He does not claim that it is flaxv- Icss. however, and he objects to the fact that the advocators of the point-count system flatly state that it works automatically. Under the point-count system, an ace counts four, a king three. a queen two and a jack one. If you have a minimum of 16 points, you open with one no trump.

Mr. Moyse gave the East and West hands shown today in his article, and I have taken the liberty of filling in the North and South cards. I have filled them in so that East and West cannot make three no trump, because Mr. Moyse states in his article that under the point-count system. East and West -will not arrive at three no trump.

East has only a count of 5 and. therefore, should not raise his partner. Moyse says. "I might be persuaded to try for three no trump from the West position, with a side wager of, say. a million rubles." Undoubtedly in many cases he would be able 10 make three no trump, but with the North and South hands as I have set them up.

that contract Is doomed to defeat. The point that Moyse brings out is that in the point-count system, when a minimum hand is oppo- a maximum supporting hand, the right contract may not be reached: while a maximum apposite a less than minimum hand may miss a game. I hold no brief for either the honor-count or the point-count systems. However, most of the ex- oerts today are using the poini- for no trumps It will be to advantage to learn it.
