Desperate Defense

That East outguessed declarer on
this hand must be conceded; but, in
addition, East had to play quickly
and nonchalantly, for the slightest
hesitation would have given away
his daring defensive play.
East, dealer.
Both sides vulnerable.

Sweden Ruled Finland
BY Fred Neher

moved into Finland Chiefly to the
southern par0 and some of them
married into Finnish families.
There were not many Films in
the world 300 years ago. Records
tell us the number was less than
half million. A big increase has
taken place during the past 40
years. Today there are seven
times as many people in Finland
as in 1900.
While Charles XII was on the
Swedish throne, Peter the Great
was Gar Of Russia. War broke out
between the two countries, and Rus
STA won. As q result, the eastern
side of Finland was taken by Russia.
In 1909 another car won the rest
Of the country and made Finland
q grand duchy" in the Russian
empire. The Firms were. allowed
to have a measure of freedom in
making their own laws.

opened his partners diamond suit.
East played the jack, and South,
after winning, laid down the heart
ace, then played the ten, overtaking
with dummy's jack.
East heaved a sigh of relief as he
won with his blank queen, and then
played a second diamond, which
was won by South's ten. Trying to
force an entry to dummy, declarer
now played the jack of clubs. AL
though East held but two clubs, he
coolly played the deuce, for he knew
that If he won the trick all would
be lost. While he now could have
dropped the club king, declarer led
low from his hand. West played the
nine, and after some hesitation the
queen was played from dummy.
The dummy was now dead
East established his diamond suit
and then obtained the lead with
the spade ace and set the contract.
East deserves credit for his fine de-
Tense, but as for South, he could
not have been worse.
