clubs the trumps and four diamonds
in each hand. no, discards would be
possible.
Mr.. Work, at this point, bid four
hearts, hoping his partner could go
on either with spades or hearts. No
harm could result from the bid as
his partner, IL weak In hearts, could
return to spades without increasing
the contract.
Five Diamonds Hold
Mr.. Whitehead passed. Mr.. Stan.
ley bid four spades, simply as q
denial of support for hearts. Mr..
Needham said five diamonds. He
reasoned that In view Of Mr.. Works
strong support for Mr.. Etanley's
spade bid, and his own holding Of
three spades, Mr.. Whitehead could
not hold more than one shade, He
also figured on the discard Of his
two losing hearts on Mf. White
heads long clubs. He thus felt that
game, or even g Small Slam, was
most probable. Five diamonds held
the bid.
Mr.. Stanley opened with his single
ton jack Of hearts, hoping to find
Mr.. Work. who had bid hearts, with
the ace, In which case Mr.. Stanley
would have been able to trump the
suit on the return lead.
At first sight Of Dummy, Mr..
Whitehead, the Declarer, saw that
Il the outstanding trumps were
divided 81 his contract was assured,
as he could draw the trumps In three
rounds, leaving one In his own hand
and one In Dummy's. These two re
naming trumps could then be made
separately by rqffing, giving him
five tricks with trumps, five in clubs,
and the ace Of hearts--a total of
five-add, and game. II the adverse
trumps did hot fall in three rounds,
he could not make his contract. In
any event, Mr.. whitehead had to try
out the trump situation first. He
played the ace Of hearts from
Dummy; Mr.. Work played the q;
Mr.. Whitehead the 8.
