a good rule never to lead an honor to take. Q hnesse unless you have something behind it to establish.
 The correct play is for the de- clarer to lead the three of hearts from the dummy and go right up with the ace in his own hand. He should then return the deuce of hearts and when West plays the ten should play the queen from dum- my. Now the small heart is re- turned and West is forced to win with the king. D.
 West leads Q club which the de- clarer wins with the king. Declarer West will discard the five of spades and the declarer will win the trick with the nine in dummy. The six of diamonds is returned to the de. ciarer's ten and the seven of dia- monds played back to dummy's queen, This, puts the declarer in q position to take the spade finesse if he so desires. The jack of spadeA should be led from dummy and when East plays the eight the fin7 esse should not be taken, because if West happens to hold the good diamond as well as the good club with the king of spades, the de1 ciarer's contract will be lost. De- clarer should go right up with his ace of spades and grant his oppon. ents the last two tricks. .
 By leading c small heart to the ace and e small heart back to the queen the declarer has made his contract of three No Trump.

 The opening lead by West Is his fourth best club, the three spot, East wins the trick With the ace and returns the seven of clubs which the deciarer wins with the queen. Deciarer then plays the jack of diamonds which West covers with the king, North, the dummy, winning the trick with the ace. -
 Declarer can now count three diamond tricks, two club tricks, the ace of hearts and the ace of spades. If the spade finesse is successful, 1t would only give him two odd. He must try for break in the heart suit. If the deciarer were to lead the queen of hearts from dummy and East held the king he would cover and the declarer would be forced to go up with the ace, while if East does not hold the king, West will win the trick.
