peculiar and unusual situation. Should

The two-spade bid by Y practically
decided the question, for that bid in
dicated at least six spades in US hand
and therefore four losing spades in As
hand. Even if the hearts should drop,
A would be unable to go game in case
he should lose four spade tricks. He
therefore passed and his judgment
proved to be good as his partner made
five odd in diamonds. opened a spade
and B obtained two club discards, one
on spades and one on hearts. All he had
to lose were one club and one diamond
trick. 1t is most interesting hand and
illustrative of the value of ANALYSIS of
the bidding and the consequent dis
tribution OF the various suits before
deciding upon the final bid. Very few
players could or would have failed to
bid four hearts with As cards and by
so doing would have lost the game.
