TRACING LOST TRICKS

DUPLICATE Is an amazing re-
vealer Of the difference in tactics
by declarers in the same contract.
Rubber addicts often must remain
ignorant Of their deficiencies.
whereas devotees Of the other and
more scientific game have a capt.
tai chance to find out Just what is
the matter with their play, so
they may erase one by one the
weaknesses which cost them hun
dreds OF tricks and dozens of
missed games and slams in the
span Of a year. Where one pair
made several more tricks than
another In duplicate. often 1t can
be seen how each playing error
cost exactly one trick.

This moy look like the strongest
