I will not attempt to explain 1t to you, because watching 1t be- wildered me. I asked Q man standing near a few questions about the game, which he readily answered.
 Then asked, DO you play much bridge out here2" The husky gentleman replied, "Well you know this Is one-man coun- try. I don't think bridge would be 6 healthy game to play here Can you imagine what would hap pen if you trumped your partners ace in this country?"
 Maybe he was right it shouldn't be healthy for you to trump your partners ace; but I recall @ hand in which the only way to defeat the contract was to trump your partners ace.
 After West won the opening lead, he continued. with the ace of hearts. Looking at the dummy East had the presence of mind to trump 1t in order to lead a dia- Ynord.
 He saw that if West could not open the diamonds and establish a trick by force, then declarer would establish the clubs for dia- monds discardS if West held nc more than one club stopper. His reasoning proved to be correct.
