of two hearts is highly construc- tive. I think East's bid of three diamonds rather optimistic. South shows a fit in his partners suit by a bid of three hearts.
 North's bid of three spades is then made to show partner a fit in the original spade suit. This is all the information that South
 needs. If his partner holds four
 hearts and four spades, undoubt- edly the same tricks will be made
 in either suit.
 However, 1t is safer to have the
 diamond suit led up to rather than through. While North happened to
 hold five hearts, the fifth heart can
 be used for valuable discard, as you will see in the play. The Play However. against four-spade contract, West will cash his king
 and queen of clubs, and will now probably shift to a heart. which will be won in dummy with the
 king. Now the spade suit is started.
 three roundS of spades being taken.
 Then the declarer runs off the heart suit and discards the losing diamond on the fifth heart. The losing club, of course, can be ruffed in dummy with the spade. All the declarer has to lose Is a diamond and two clubs.

Don't Fear Four-Carder Contract; Sometimes Can
 Made More Easily With Shorter Suit When Proper Fit Is Found.
, Solution to Previous, Contract
 Problem

Solution to Previous, Contract Problem
 Do you remember, in the days of auction, that we were afraid of four-card suit, due to the fact that we never really knew whether we had a proper fit with our partner, or whether 1t was the proper dec laration?
 rake, for example, today's hand. South has a perfect four-card suit bid in spades, and his partner has normal support. However, North also has five-card suit, and South has perfect fit there.
 As a result, in auction, we might , find ourselves playing the hand at hearts, instead of spades. Even today at contract, some players will make the mistake of getting into the wrong declaration When your partner opens with a Hour-card suit, and you believe you have all the cards necessary to fill in that suit, although you have a five-card major of your own, don't be too sure that the hand must be played in your major. Remember that contract is a partnership game, and it Is up to you and your partner to try to arrive at the proper contract.
