CONTRACT BRIDGE
By VIM. E. MCKINNEY Secretary of the American Bridge League

It took Lawrence Weiss, of New ton, Mass, and his partner six rounds of bidding to reach their eventual grand slam declaration in today's hand. But then their final declaration was to take all 13 tricks and in doing so, Weiss found it necessary to execute a double squeeze and make the dummy the master hand.
 Both bidding and play were in- teresting.
 I shall not attempt to analyze the bidding in detail. When part nerS hold such preponderance of high cards as did North and South, 1t usually is a case of all roads leading to Rome, but in the main almost every bid was based on sound foundation and gave partner 8 little further light on the hand.
 Vests double of seven clubs, the only time that he or his partner en- tered the bidding, was made per-

one-sided.
 The opening lead was won by declarer with the ace, and a heart was returned to dummy's ace. A small heart was led and trumped. Then the ace of diamonds was cashed, and g small heart was ruffed, East discarding diamond.
 Next South cashed the king and queen of diamonds. Then he led his last trump and overlook with the king.
 Two more rounds of trumps were drawn and both East and West were squeezed. East had to hold @ diamond. West, with the club king as entry card to dummy, had to hold fast to his heart. Hence each had to discard Q club.
 South then cashed the club king. and won the last two tricks with the ace and eight of clubs in his own hand.

in Washington seems to have
the habit of following the

And now, after Kay Brown is

that will start Cupid's atten-
