Fine Points in Bridge
By SHEPARD BARCLAY

Wouldn't you then think your
partner was giving you an en-
encouraging high card, asking you
to repeat the suit, especially since
neither the 5 nor the 2 had been
played? So you would offer the
diamond @ or to the second
trick. depending on how you read
your partners probable holding.
II you did, the declarer would
promptly run nine tricks, five In
diamonds, two In spades and his
two other aces.
Notice what would have hap
pened II the declarer had not
played as he did to the first trick.
II ne won 1t and then tried for
game any way he might contrive,
he could not possibly get more
than four tricks In diamonds, plus
four other tricks. being down one.
But, having read West as holding
four to the Q-J-e and East for q
singleton, he made the play cal
culated to win, better than either
the 5 or 2, to keep those out Of
sight and make West think East
had them both plus one or more
Of the higher cards in the suit.

enlargement of kitchen and dining
facilities at Gallinger is proposed
also.
Another, but less urgently needed
facility proposed was 1926, 900

In the same category was a pro-
posal for a $270,000 ward for chronic
and convalescent patients at Glenn
