BY W. E. M’KENNEY Secretary American Bridge Leagne A NEAT strip play is the clew to the solution of the contract problem printed in the last issue. Charles A. Hall, one of Cincinnati’s outstanding players, made the hand in a recent tournament. He arrived at the six heart contract, with his partner, as follows: Mr. Hall in the South bid one heart; West passed, and North went to three hearts. This is a forcing bid demand that the original bidder bid either four hearts or three no trump if he holds a minimum. Any other bid would be constructive and would be treated as a mild slam try. Mr. Hall responded with four diamonds. This was all that North needed to carry the contract to six hearts. West’s opening lead was a club, which Mr. Hall won with the king and led the ace and king of hearts. West's queen dropped, but the good jack still was out. Mr. Hall then led a small club, won in dummy with the ace, returned the queen and discarded the eight of spades. As the jack of hearts was located in the East hand, Mr. Hall now started ~to lead diamonds, not car--4 A 7 V 9 7 6 6’ ♦ J 10 6 f 4A Q 5 495321 4 K 10 6 4 VQ4 w * E * J32 ♦ 942 a m 475 410763 4 J 9 8 2 4Q J 8 V A K 10 8 4 AK Q 8

ing when East trumped, and also not fearing the location of the king of spades because if East trumped the third diamond he would be forced to lead a spade, in which case Mr. Hall would not lose a spade trick. a a m WHILE if East refused to trump and discarded two spades, Mr. Hall himself would lead a trump and throw East in the lead. If East returns a club, Mr. Hall will trump In one hand and discard the losing spade from the other. By employing a strip play he had made his contract of six hearts.
