When frightened or interested in

then stand erect, so that any sunlight

In addition there is a musk gland

The bidding is instructive. Mr..
Malowan, with his tremendous hand,
was not quite strong enough for q
two-bid, but he subsequently forced
by jumping in his own suit and then,
after Mr.. Jacoby had signed of at
three no-trump, he went to four clubs.
This support for his six-card suit en-
couraged Mr.. Jacoby Hence, the
control-showing bid of four diamonds.
Then when Mr.. Malowan in turn
showed his first-round control in
spades, Mr.. Jacoby felt justified in
jumping to a small slam in clubs,
whereupon Mr.. Malowan, reasoning
that trumps must be solid and that his
partner should be able to throw of
any losers on the long heart suit, con-
tracted for the grand slam.
The queen of spades WAS opened.
Mr.. Jacoby won in his own hand with
the king. Two leads exhausted the
opponents trumps. Declarer now
cashed the ace-king of hearts, rufIed
the third one, entered dummy with
the ace Of spades, ruffed the fourth
heart, ruffed spade to get back in
dummy, and discarded his losing
diamond on one of the remaining
hearts, thereby easily fulfilling his
contract.
