' After spades were set is th" trump suit, the next four bi'V; were absolutely forcing Mi. Meck's bid of th-ee cll'imon'it promised first-round control of that suit. Mr. Abel could not, pass it. Even if he lnd sirclch-ed a bit to bid two spades h was expected to go bick to th it uit at the three level. Actually, Mr. Abel was glad t have the opportunity to bid again. He slipped in a three heart bid to show good h ?h-card strength in that suit. Air. Meek could not logically pasj here. Both he and his partner had now made strong, forward goins bids and ccrtu.nly th to was no sense in either of tliom stopping jinder game. ' The foilr-f !ub bi'l was a slam suggestion, showing first-round rontrnl of that suit. The following four-diamond call showetl second round control of diamonds (the king or a singleton).
