Of these tends to grow upward to

commonly see. The other pole"
tends to grow downward.
The part which goes downward
has a main part, called the tap

branch. In their turn, the branches
often divide into new branches.
In the end there comes q network
Of roots.
Some small plants have very small
roots, filling a space Of less than

which reach far and wide under the
soil.

The roots are after water and

North quite mistakenly felt that
he had too much strength for a
mere overcall. East's pre-emptive
spade raise put South on the spot.
1t was plain that East was trying
to keep South from showing his
best suit. South, it was true. had
very little. but he did have fair
siX-card heart suit and North's
double asked South to bid hearts
if he could. North might not have
good enough hand to take further
action, but might still have enough
to permit North-South to make
four hearts. 1t was a situation
where, If North's double were a
proper one, passing might be more
costly than bidding.
The f1ve-club contract was ruin
Gus. East opened a low spade and
since North didn't know what to
do first If he won the trick, he let
Vests king hold. West returned a
trump. North didn't dare take the
f1nesse before he had ruffed his
losing spade. He went up with
the club ace, cashed the spade ace,
ruffed spade In dummy, took his
diamond ace and led another dia-
mond. West won and returned a
trump, which East took with the
jack. A heart was led and West
won with the Jack, returning the
fourth spade. North ruffed and put
West in with another diamond.
West led the heart ace and North
ruffed. but East's two trumps won
the last tricks and North was set
