Getting from the hand held by declarer to the hand exposed on the board often is the major prob- lem in the play of the hand. It can- not be emphasized too often that, in making his plan to play, de- clarcr should consider and solve this question, if possible before he touches card from the dummy or his own hand.
 In today's hand, taken from a duplicate contest, there was only ono player who though out the simple problem of communication in time to fulfill his game con- tract. The others all fell short.
 North, with four trumps and an nee, had to keep the bidding open. of course, and that wnS all that was necessary for South. with his strong hand, to jump to game.
