CONTRACT BRIDGE
Fnesse Can Be oided-Instead Of Trying To Trap Honor In Play That Gan Be Made Both Ways, Force
 Lead Into Your Hand.
BY VIM. E. McKEN
Secretary of the American Bridge League

The question recently was asked me, "Where do you get the hands YOU write about every day?" I get practically all of them from tour namcnts. I believe these are the best types of hands. since they give } the bidding and play as they ac- tually come up in good competi- ton.
 But often have wondered what I would do for hands if I became ill-and now that have been laid up in the hospital for a week, have learned the answer to that problem.
 My various bridge playing - friends, as soon as they learned of my illness, came in with interesting hands-hands that they thought might be used in the daily articles. We discussed the different plays and invariably, when they left, l had an idea for hand.
 For example, while in the hos- pital at Cleveland, I was taken care of, by Dr J. H. Budd. One day Dr Budd brought in a newspaper-the :. Mail, of Halifax, N. S., his home s city-and showed me my bridge t article, which he said he had been {. following for some time. Soon we were discussing the game of con- | tract.
 The doctor brought up this point when you have finesse that can ' be taken either way, how should {. you guide yourself in taking this { fiinesse? My reply was that in many such cases you simply do not bother with that finesse at all. but : force your opponents to play the hand safely for you.

Women Voters To Hold Board Meet
Group Win Gather in Hart ford Headquarters on
 Saturday

Reports of interviews with con- gressmen concerning the measures which the league will support fin the seventy-third congress will be a feature of the regular meeting of the board of directors of the Con- necticut League of Women Voters which will be held at the Hartford Headquarters of the organization on Wednesday. December 13, from 11:0O a. m. to 3:00 D. m. The league is especially interested in appropriations for five federal agencies, the Federal Trade Com mission, the Children's Bureau, the Bureau of Home Economies. the Women's Bureau and the office of education. believing their services to be essential for the protection of the consumer, of women and children and of education. The organization will continue to work for entrance of the United States into the World Court, federal pro- vision for maternity and infancy hygiene programs and the removal of discriminations against women in administrative practice. Support will also be accorded to interna- tionual agreements controlling the manufacture and shipment of arms.
 Mrs Edith Valet Cook of New Haven, recently reelected state president will preside at the meet ing. Among the newly elected members of the board who are ex- pected to attend for the first time are Mrs Hugh Gallagher of Dar- M ,-+l, Co of Naef Hartford, Mrs George Parmly Day and Mrs Lansing Lewis of New Haven, Miss Sylvina Norton of Colchester, Mrs G. c. Russell of Hartford and Mrs Howell N. White nf IakeYillc.

And so we laid out today's hand. Even though North holds 100 honors in hearts, he cannot risk a vulnerable overcall of two hearts over one spade, as it might prove very disastrous.
 The Play
 North opens the king of hearts and follows with the ace and queen. West, the declarer, ruffs the third round with the four of spades. A small spade is led by West and is won in dummy with the king. A small spade is re- turned, West winning with the ace. The declarer already has lost two hearts and now must lose a trump trick. Of course, if he can guess the diamond finesse right, the contract Is made, but there is noth- ing to guide him in selection of the diamond finesse-it is purely a guess.
 Therefore, the safest way to play the hand is to lead a small club. win in dummy with the queen, and return the seven of hearts. South drops the four of diamonds and West, the declarer, trumps with the nine Of spades.
 Declarer then should take two more rounds of clubs and play small spade from dummy. South discards the ten of clubs and North wins the trick with the queen of spades.
 North is forced to lead a dia- mond. and 1t now wakes no diSer- ence where the queen of diamonds is. The contract is assured.
