_ . , . .v, o of Fredrick Smith,

Opening lead — V 9 sy who was convicl

the queen of spades. shooting two cl West won with the king of ooy an spades and shifted to the five pie S fon, s< uth o of diamonds. Now the defenders got their two diamond tricks, Smith. 1 and West ruffed a heart to de- the “bah. feat the contract. ; derer,” scrambled South’s trump finesse was foot v, courageous, but it wasn’t wood Scrub P bridge. He could afford to lose one trump, but not two. South therefore had to play in such a way as to prevent a heart |;,'

ruff.

TAKE ACE The correct play is to take • the ace of spades at the second trick. If nothing unusual happens on this trick, South gets back to dummy with a club to lead another spade through

East.

This play will limit the defenders to one trump trick if the four missing trumps break ^ 2-2 or if East has any three of them. Nothing can ever be done if West started with K-J-

9 of trumps.

As the cards lie, West gets his king of spades on the second round of trumps and can therefore never ruff a heart. The defenders take one trump and

two diamonds.

The correct play would work also if West had the singleton king of spades. Then South could take the ace and queen of spades, giving up one trick to the Jack. If South lost by ■ finessing the queen to the singleton king he would have to give up a second trump trick to

the jack.

The play of the ace of spades costs one trick if East happens to hold K-6 of spades, but South still makes his contract. A good player does not worry about overtricks if he can safeguard the contract. DAILY QUESTION Partner opens with one heart, and the next player passes. You hold: Club K 9 Heart 9 Diamond K 8 6 5 3 spade J 7 6 4 3. What do you say? Answer; Bid one notrump. Your hand is strong enough for a response, but not strong enough for a bid of two diamonds or two clubs.
