 However, the point is that South is marked with two more clubs and East does not know where the ace of diamonds or the queen oi diamonds lies, but he does Know the location of the king or hearts To lead heart will give the de. clarer two sure heart tricks. The proper return is q diamond.
 South must have two hearts, ei he bid no trump and proDapIy would not have done that with singleton heart--so, by leading 2 diamond, East assures himself oi a heart trick. Declarer can run on three diamonds and cash his two clubs, discarding tho jack oi

CONTRACT BRIDGE
 BY VIM. E. MCKINNEY
Held Down To Contract Makes Proper Lead Int Tenace Positions Preventing Declarer From
 Cashing Extra Trick
Secretary of the American Bridge League
solution to Previous COntYACt Problem

We never like to lead into .tenace position, but sometimes the declarer can get an end play which will force us to lead into one or the other tenace. In today's hand, after the first six tricks, East is in and must lead into either the king-jack of diamonds or the ace-queen-jack of hearts - both tenace positions-and he must make a choice. If he stops to think, the choice is rather sim pie.
 I believe North, before bidding hearts, should respond with two no trump, as he holds several ten ace positions and 1t looks as though the advantage Is for his hand to play the no trump. How ever, the actual bid by North was one heart.
 South must respond with one no trump, as he does not have re- biddable suit. North then goes to two no trump, and South takes 1t to three.
 The Play
 Vests opening lead is the king of spades and declarer must hold
