 Dr. vogel then began the march of the diamonds. East nonchalantly dropped three clubs, one heart, ana one spade on the first five leads, but the sixth discard was not so easy.
 He had the king of clubs, the queen, 10, and eight of spades and the queen, seven and six of hearts. The club queen in dummy forced him to retain the king. SO he gave up a spade, hoping that West held the jack.
