10 the situation. 1t is developed on
the heart that south was not calling
fol trumps, barring the chance of him
having no more and west, leading
fourth best spade, shows that he can
bold no combination Of high cards,
hence north infers that spade is strong

with the spade five, south with the
spade eight
