Contract Bridge

RY WM. E. M’KINNEY RerrMary Amfriran Rridgr Lracue DO you realize that the hardest contract to make is in no trump? Your opponents need but few high cards, if they have a long suit that can be established on one round and a re-entry to set you, at no trump, while at a suit contract, their long suit many be worthless you can ruff it. Still some players will persist, even when vulnerable, in opening the bidding with one no trump on a weak holding. You must remember that you can lose more points on one hand in contract bridge than you can gain in an entire evening’s play, by just one bad bid. One of the strongest weapons with which to combat those who open with a weak no trump is the deductive double. When North makes the original bid of one no trump. East does not need to step in—he can pass. If his partner has two tricks, he will double, realizing that, with North using a system whereby he can 4 KQ 9 VQ 8 5 ♦Q J 2 4 A Q 10 2 445X4 A J 10 7 VJIO W EVAK973 ♦AK6g4 10 9 8 3 4 K J 7 5 Dealer 4 None 4S 5 2 V 4 2 ♦ 754 498 6 4 S Rubber bridge—N. and S. vul.

make an original weak no trump bid, and with South passing East must have the high card tricks. North passes, expecting East to take out the double, but East simply passes. The hand is trapped Os course, in this case, if South were to bid two clubs, the slaughter would not be so great. tt u tt F' AST will open the king of hearts and then shift to the jack of spades. North might as well win with the queen. Now the question is, how to play the club suit. North should cash his ace of clubs, because if he should underlead the ace, that is, play low first, he would never make the ace. Suppose he leads the ten of clubs. East will discard a diamond and West will W'in the trick with the jack. West's best play is to show his partner an entry card by laying down the king of diamonds. West then leads the jack of hearts, North will not cover, and West will continue with the ten of hearts. When North’s queen goes on, East will win the trick with the ace. He then will cash his nine and seven of hearts. West will let go a club and a spade. North now is being squeezed and has to discard the queen and deuce of clubs. East leads the ten of diamonds, West wins with the ace and returns a spade, through North's king-nine, making East’s ace-ten and seven of spades good tricks. If North foolishly retains his ace of clubs instead of his queen of diamonds, he will lose even the last trick. Here we find the declarer going down five tricks at one no trump doubled, for a loss of 2.000 points. iCopvrifrht. 1934. bv NEA Service. Inc.i

The interior of the tent that had been pitched for Zora and La was illuminated by a paper lantern, in which a candle burned dimly; and in this subdued light the two sat talking in La's newly acquainted English, it was the only pleasure that the two girls enjoyed.

This night they were speaking of escape and planning to cut a hole in the back of their tent, through which they might sneak away Into the jungle after the camp had settled down for the night and when their sentry should be dozing at his post.

While they conversed, the sentry before their tent strolled away, and a moment later they heard a scratching upon the back of the tent. Their conversation ceased. They sat with eyes rivited upon a point where the fabric of the tent moved to the pressure of the scratching.

“Do not cry out. I am Bukula. I can help you to escape," a voice whispered. Zora at once recognized Bukula as one of the blacks that Abu Batn had forced to accompany him from the base camp. “The sentry has gone away. I will tell you my plans," whispered the black.-
