The Play
 West opened the king of clubs which Judge Richards in the South won with the ace.
 Summing the hand up, 1t now looks as though he must lose a diamond and a spade trick, even finesse. However, seeing that there was one possible chance of making the hand, Judge Richards pro- ceeded in the following manner:
 He won the next trick with the ace of spades and then led the three of hearts, winning in dummy with the ace. On dummy's king and queen of hearts, he discarded his three and eight of clubs. He then led the three of spades and finessed the jack.
 Vests ten spot fell, warning him, that East held the queen and eight of spades. Judge Richards then when Vests jack dropped, contin- ued with the king, West discarding a club.
 Judge Richards then led the nine of diamonds and was careful to pay the teu ITOm OuIuulys GdSL won the trick with the queen cf diamonds.
 East then made the serious mid- take of returning the jack of heartus, which MT Richards trumped with the five of spades. Judge Richards led the deuce of diamonds which was won in dummy with the eight spot, and all he had to do was to lead g. club from dummy which East wac forced to trump with the eight of spades.
 Judge Richards overtrumped with the nine of spades and won the last trick with the king of spades, thereby successfully mak- ing his contract of six spades dou- bled.
 Giving your opponent an oppor- tunity to make an error. and being quick to take advantage of the breaks, is what makes a good bridge player.

 Here is an interesting coinci- dence. While in St Petersburg. Fla, had the pleasure of meeting Judge Ralph E. Richards of Clear water, Fla. Upon hearing his name, I was naturally interested to learn whether or not he played a good game of bridge, as 1t was MT Ralph R. Richards, now of California, who was my partner when we won the national contract pair cham pionship in Chicago in 1929.
 During the evening, Judge Rich- ards brought back memories of some of the masterful plays made by my former partner when he suc- cessfully executed coup play to make his contract in the following hand:

 The bidding was very optimistic. Judge Richards in the South opened with a two spade bid, and as a result found himself playing
