Q2ONLRACT G LIB g
EXPERIS PLAY IT -
Solution 10 Previous Contract Problem
By WIN. e. MCKINNEY
(Secretary. American Bridge League)

Perhaps the most important. and
still the most difficult. thing for the
beginner at contract to learn Is that
high card tricks alone will not pro-
duce game. Partners must find tit
in the two hands.
We have learned generally that five
to five and one-half high card tricks
will produce game, but this is not
true unless the two hands fit-and
then game often can b made with
fewer high card tricks than these.
Therefore. in the early rounds Of bid
ding. don't bother 50 much to find
out about high cards, as to learn about
that fit.
When an opponent interposes q bid
that may be the warning OF a mis-
fit hand At least, you cannot pro-.
coed much farther with the bidding
unless you can account for the losers
in the suit that he tells you he Is
strong in.
It Is not advisable generally to over.
call one bid with q four-card suit. but
West cannot be criticized for over
calling with strong four-card suit,
especially since it Is In the one zone
and he also shows his partner hand

the bidding properly stops at two
hearts.
The Play
Vests opening lead was the king
Of spades and he followed with the ace
and queen. His fourth lead was a
small club, the queen was finessed
and 1t held the trick.
Declsrcr then cashed the ace OF
clubs and East dropped the jack,
which now advised the declarer that
East was out Of spades and clubs.
The king Of hearts was cashed and
small heart led. South winning the
second heart with the ace South
ca5hed the queen OF hearts and West
showed out. discarding hts fourth
spade
The declarer now had perfect
reading on the East l1and--al he could
hold was the good ten of hearts and
four diamonds If one of these Ola
n1cnds were the queen. the declarer
could make an extra trick by first
casfing his ace OF diamonds and then
leading small heart. discarding a
club from dummy and throwing East
in the lead.
East then was forced to lead away
from his queen Of diamonds, and the
declarer made three-odd.

He laughed like roaring lion

Luke Sewell was the great back
stop, General Alvin Crowder, Earl
Whitehill, Lefty Walter Stewart,
Monte Weaver and Jack Russell
were the pitchers, while Fred
Schultz was the center fielder.
This season all of these men
have been on deck with the excep-
ton of Luke Sewell. And Luke
would have been available had
he not suffered a finger injury
during spring training months,
which injury has kept him out OF
action throughout the campaign
Absence Felt Keenly
In all due respect to both Moe
Berg and Eddie Phillips, able sub
stitutes, Sewell's absence has been
materially felt by the Griffmen
all these weeks. The team has
missed his fire and dash behind
the plate, while above ball. It's
missed the balance" which the
veteran always 4AcIo PANN~~~~ NJ
his presence in the game.
Today, Sewell will be back. And
going on the suppoSition the
championship team fares best
with its great" catcher in work
ing order with the remainder OF
the roster, particularly the pitch
ing staff and center fielder, the
Griffs should be materially aided
by his presence.
The veteran won't be in his
best fettle as he'll probably favor
his injured finger in every way.
But this crisis will be passed as
time goes, as Luke will become
more and more adjusted to his
assignment as the games appear.
Luke has trained earnestly for
the past three weeks for this
comeback chance. He's followed
every training camp order and as
far as being physically fit is
concerned, he's ready to the
letter.
He offered this impression
yesterday when he reported to
the ball park and said to Pres1-
dent Clark Griffith:
"I'm ready to go at any mo-
ment CrOnin needs me-"
AS to the veterans finger, it's
still a little off fettle, but not
enough to keep him out of action.
He's thrown every day of late,
as special tests, and has found no
ill effects resulting other than a
slight stiffness, which will wear
off in time.
Sewell will catch Earl White
hill in today's opening game OF
the current set with the Chicago
White Sox. Opposing Whitehill
will be Ted Lyons, who defeated
the Griffs the last time he faced
'em at Chicago, II to 7.
