Opening lead—king of hearts. 1 am indebted to Mr. B. T. W. .’.Hoare of Johannesburg, S. Africa, for sending me this hand played in a tournament some 30 years ago. The deal highr lights the principle that in , choosing a trump suit it is not always best for a side to choose the suit in which it has the greatest combined length. The hands where this principle applies are relatively rare, but when the occasion does /, arise, the reward is usually worthwhile, as it was in this

' case.

Mr. Hoare (South) and his partner were playing the Cul-

bertson (1934) system, as were most of the other players in the event The two club opening was forcing to game and showed at least 5 Vi honor tricks. The two notrump response indicated less than 1% honor tricks, a method of denying strength still in popular use today. The cuebid of four hearts by South showed first control of the suit and requested North to choose between clubs and diamonds as trump, bearing in mind that South had more clubs than diamonds, since he had bid them first. North diagnosed the situation very accurately when he decided to bid five diam'onds even though he knew the combined club holding was longer than the combined diamond holding. He thought that South probably had 2-0-5-6 distribution, in which case diamonds was likely to be the better trump suit as the clubs could then be used for the purpose of discarding spades from dummy and thus avoiding a spade loser. And that was exactly how it worked out after South boldly contracted for a grand slam in diamonds. Declarer ruffed the heart lead, drew two rounds of trumps, cashed six clubs on which he discarded two spades from dummy, and then ruffed a spade to produce 13 tricks. This was one trick more than he could have made with clubs as trumps.

Great Plains. Long time residents called the onslaught the worst spring storm in more than a decade. At least five persons were known dead in the snow and cold. The same mass of cold air which brought the blizzard, spun off tornadoes from Texas to Michigan Monday, less than 24 hours after tornadoes ripped through Minnesota, killing 12 persons. A car that had apparently slipped off the road and became stuck near Porcupine, S.D., was found late Monday. Four persons Inside the car were dead. Authorities said the four, all Indians from the Pine Ridge reservation, apparently were overcome by carbon monoxide poisoning while leaving the motor running to ward off freezing cold. A Scottsbluff, Neb., man wandered away from his home Monday in the middle of the

storm and was found dying In the snow. High winds piled snow into 10foot drifts in South Dakota, hitting the Black Hills area hardest. More than three feet of snow fell in the area. More than a foot of snow was on the ground across southeastern Montana, northeastern Wyoming and southwestern North Dakota. The rare May Day storm forced the Wyoming state highway department to close down all roads in and out of Sheridan, Buffalo, Gillette, Newcastle and Casper. Schools were closed. Winds rose to 7T m.p.h. and the temperature slid to 21 at Goodland, Kan. The collision of the cold air with warm, humid air over the Mississippi Valley touched off another round of tornadoes Monday but damage was relatively light and no deaths were reported.
