INTERFERENCE hurts
WHEN BOTH sides have strong
iioliinss. in different suits, each
usually interferes with the bid
ijinj cf the other to such an ex
tent that neither pair gets into its
best contract. Most strikingly is
tiiis shown when one side has
peat length in two suits and the
mponents have length in the
other two. Otherwise good bid
kt; are likely to “miss the boat”
tj plenty in such situations.

with 1-Spade and East made the
mildest of all possible responses
except a pass, with 1-No Trump,
whereupon South doubled. West
forced with 3-Diamonds, East bid
3- South 4-Hearts, West
4- South 5-Clubs, West
5- and East switched to
5-Spades. This was passed all
around and the side made a small
slam. Probably North should have
cut in at that point with 6-Hearts,
since his partner had gone all the
way to four without ever hearing
from him, but he did not. He prob
ably thought his four little trumps
might make son a trouble for
East and West at spades.
Examination of the hand shows
that North and South can make
7-Hearts, due to the position of
outstanding cards, and that Eact
and West can make C-Spaoie3.
