of Ca - ATS* implj 'i • >m ’ ii t ertuin s ei ii be • a- to lead it himself. However, if a defender leads that suit, declarer has the advantage of playing last to the trick and untold numbers of ontracts are made because uelarer was unnecessarily given his opportunity. SERIOUS PENALTIES Today’s hand is an excellent example of the serious penalties suffered by the defenders when they break a new suit every time they get the lead. Mrs. Keen and Miss Brash got oo ambitious and landed in an unmakeable four spade contract. Assuming that Mrs. Keen has to break all the plain suits herself. -De has two losers in diamonds, Jiree in clubs, plus a possible 'ioser in hearts depending on her ability to guess the location of the queen of that suit. “HOPELESS” HAND WINS Mr. Abel’s best opening lead was a trump but he chose the trey of diamonds. Mrs. Keen played low from the board and Mr. Muzzy won with the ace. This eliminated one of Mrs. Ceen’s losers in the suit. At this point Mr. Muzzy had two safe leads—a trump or another diamond. But he chose to break a new suit. He led the 'ive of clubs. Mrs. Keen ducked md Mr. Abel won with the king This play cut Mrs. Keen’s club losers from three to two. She now had only three losers outside of hearts. And Mr. Abel ook the guess out of that situaion by breaking still another new ?uit. He returned the nine of hearts and the queen fell to the "king. Mrs. Keen’s “hopeless” contract was now a laydown. ^
