Mr Muzzy won the first trick with the king of clubs. Paying no attention to his partner's play of the deuce, he continued with the ace of chubs, which Mr. Abel luffed. Now, from the bidding, it appeared to Mr. Abel that the ace of spades was probably on his left.. When Mr. Muzzy won with that card, he might return a diamond or a club. NO DIAMOND LOSERS A diamond return would go right into the ace-jack. A club return could be ruffed in the closed hand while a diamond was discarded from the board. In either case there would be no diamond losers. So at trick three Mr. Abel led a spade and put up dummy’s queen. But it was Mr. Dale who showed tip with the ace and he won and returned the jack of spades, driving out dummy’s king. With two tricks already lost and another spade loser there for the taking, there was nothing left to try but the diamond fin-

nesse. Mr. Abel took two rounds of trumps, ending on the board, returned the queen of diamonds and let it ride. Mr. Muzzy won with the king and managed to return a spade to his partner’s good ten. THINKING FUZZY Mr. Abel’s thinking was fuzzy. True, since Mr. Muzzy had open- ' d the bidding, he must have ome high card outside of the dub suit. He might have both he king of diamonds and the ace >f spades, but surely he had one ir the other. The best play was to take two •ounds of trumps beginning at rick three, ending in the closed •'and, and then to lead a small liamond toward dummy's queen. 'f Mr. Muzzy ha-d the king he vould have to play it or go with■ut any diamond tricks. And vhen he did, two spades could be liscarded from dummy later on, on the third and fomth rounds of | diamonds. If Mr. Dale turned up with ;he king of diamonds, then the !

ace of spades had to be In Mr. Muzzy’s hand and successive leads up to the king-queen in
