Hands to pass a holiday

A little work is
fitting for a long Labor Day weekend, so I offer you a summer bridge quiz. No
ultramodern conventions are involved. Sound, simple bidding will produce a
satisfying score for you. If your total is 60 or less, brush up on your game.
If it is 70, you can hold your own in most company. A total of 80 means you
will do well anywhere. If you get a perfect score, why don't you call me
sometime?
