CONTRACT BRIDGE
 BY VIM. E. MCKINNEY Secretary of the American Bridge League
Provide For Distribution Bidding And Drop Of Card Tell Lie Of Hands So Keep Track Of The
 Plays To Make Most Of Game.
Solution to Previous Contract Problem

There are only 13 cards in suit yet I am surprised at the number of people who cannot keep track of them and who continue to play the cards carelessly. Always give your opponents credit for know ing what they are doing.
 Remember that they are trying to defeat your contract. and they do not play their cards carelessly at least, you do not have the right to assume that they do.
 In today's hand you provide against distribution, of which you are almost certain from the bid ding and the drop of the cards.
 East is justified in carrying his partners forcing bid of two spades to three, due to his singleton dia- mond and normal trump support.
