Five diamonds was the contract quite generally reached on today's hand, and in several cases it was made. The first trick was won with the spade ace in dummy and a low diamond was returned. East won and returned 8 spade. West won this trick and returned heart, but too late. The trick was won in dum- my, then five rounds of trumps squeezed East. He could hold only four cards, so could not retain all of his clubs and also the king of hearts. Any discard would give South his eleventh trick.
