Technique of Losing Only Certain
Number of Tricks.

n YOT quite so rare as seven no
trump contracts or six no
trump contracts, but fairly
rare in their own right, are
contracts of three no trumpS
where you have nine top-card tricks.
In almost every no trump contract
suit must be set up in order to win
the eighth and ninth tricks.
Holding A XXX Xxx and Xxx x, the
ordinary method of procedure is to
duck the first trick. Holding Kxxxx
and A X, giving up the first trick
will presumably net you four tricks
later. But let us assume that you
have to win three tricks out of the
following holding: A Qxxx and x K.
The only method of play Is to duck
the first round of the suit, and on
the second round finesse for the king.
If the outstanding six cards in that
suit are divided three three. and if
the king is behind the ace-queen, you
will win your needed three tricks. This
should happen about once every three
months.
Having no re-entry into dummy,
how can you make five tricks out of
dummy's six-card diamond suit
A 10 9 Y X-when you hold K x?
Play the small card from your own
hand and finesse the ten-Spot. When
you regain the lead once more with
your ace of spades, play the king of
diamonds and overtake with the ace
If the hand that wins the first dia-
mond trick has three diamonds to an
honor, the second diamond lead will
drop the doubleton honor in the other
opponents hand, setting up the nine
spot to run the suit. It's true that
this method of play sacrifices trick
to a doubleton queen-jack, but, nat
urally. you want to make the safest
play on the hand.
Then there are the r1any safety
trumps. Holding a seven-card dia-
mond suit to the ace-king in dummy
and two small diamonds in your own
hand, you give up the first diamond
trick in order to insure against a
three-one split of the outstanding
diamonds. Then this situation may
come up some time in your bridge
career: A club has been opened.
Holding A @ in dummy and
in your own hand, you duck the trick
and win with the jack. At this
point you drive out the ace of spades.
The opponents now drive out your ace
of diamonds, setting up the rest of
the diamonds for themselves. You
have eight tricks in your own hand.
The ace of clubs is the ninth trick.
So you disdain safety plays and take
the club finesse. East wins with the
king and runs four diamond tricks. If
this ever happens to you, don't say
! failed to warn you.
Ducking is not completely con-
fined to no trump play, but is equally
effective in suit contracts. Take this
hand. for example, which South is
playing for four hearts:

TaAAkz54s 81 G. Z 3"
West has bid diamonds and opens

With each count, his fingers
compressed the heart rhythmic
ally against the chest wall.
The blood resumed its course
through the arteries and veins of
the unconscious woman, and the
surgeon then felt faint flutter
in the heart his hand still held.
The surgeon continued his slow
count and the application Of pres.
sure against the heart muscles un.
til the flutter became regular. The
operation was completed and the
patient is recovering normally.
Specialists said the cause of the
heart stoppage was uncertain,
but was distinct from a failure of
the heart which comes without
warning. 1t was the surgeons
task to act with speed to prevent
the brain and nervous system
from permanent injury due to
lack of rourishment from the

Sharp reduction Of the num-
ber of prisoners in Federal pen
itentiaries and jails has resulted
from prohibition repeal, Attorney
General Cummings said today.
A year ago there were 1885
persons in Federal prisons. At
the present time the number has
been cut to Is, 5,433. including those
who are boarded" in State,
county and municipal prisons.
Cummings pointed out that
there were about 1900 prisoners
in Federal institutions the year
before the adoption of the Prohi.
bition Amendment sentenced for
violation Of the internal revenue
laws in connection with liquor
cases. Adoption Of prohibition
ended this type Of case; repeal OF
the Eighteenth Amendment in
turn abolished the prohibition
cases, but gave rise to tax eva.
sions and other violations devel-
oping from infractions of the
liquor laws.
The Attorney General was in
his office today following trip
to Hawaii and the Pacific Coast
where he made an inspection of
the Governments new convict
prison at Alcatraz Island in San
Francisco Bay, where the mUst
desperate criminals in the Gus.
tody of the Federal Government
are to be kept.
