Editorial—
The Fortas Case
A number of people, including some who are sup-
posed to be knowledgeable about the Constitution, have
expressed shock and dismay that the U. S. Senate de-
clined to confirm Abe Fortas as chief justice of the
United States.
They have argued that the Senate, by rejecting For-

the power to appoint justices of the Supreme Court
"by and with the advice and consent of the Senate.”
Accordingly, presidential appointments to the court
hinge upon approval by the Senate.
Is it argued by critics of the recent Senate action
that this power should not be used? Do they believe that ^ ^ n om- government

Unfortunately, this is what has occurred in the recent
history of court appointments. We cannot recall a pres-

ate conducted a full-scale inquiry into the qualifications
of an appointee. The emergency has been to approve.
In light of this background, failure to confirm Fortas

chosen.

otherwise be an insoluble prob-
lem.
This deal occurred in the 1963
U.S. Team Trials. It wa3 played
at eight tables, but only once
was the excellent grand slam
contract reached.
As a matter of fact, at three
tables the North-South players
failed to bid even a small slam!
The lone pair to reach seven
were Californians Edwin Kan-
FAMOUS HAND
tar and Marshall Mile*, whose
bidding went as shown.
Miles began with a jump-shift
two spades to reveal the
promising nature of his hand
and followed this with a leap to
five clubs when Kantar rebid
his hearts.
This unusual jump was an
asking bid requiring North to
define his club holding, which
was South’s chief concern in the
hand.
A response of five diamonds
(one step) would have indicated
Q-x or worse; five hearts (two
steps) the king or a singleton;
five spades (three steps) the ace
and at least one more club; five
notrump (four steps) the single-
ton ace, the A-K. or a void in
clubs.
So when Kantar responded
five notrump, Miles knew his
club losers were taken care of,
and that the grand slam would
come marching home except in
the unlikely event that he lost
a spade or a heart trick.
According to the convention,
as played by Kantar and Miles,
there could be no confusion
about whether five clubs was an
asking bid. The leap to five
clubs (over three hearts) when
a natural and forcing four dub
bid was available meant that
South wanted to know North’*
precise club holding.
And Kantar, despite his mini-
mum opening bid, obliged by
telling Miles exactly wv- he
was hoping to hear.
