fourth-round diamond with the
spade 10. then lead the spade 8 10 :
the ] and cash the diamond 8 for
a heart discard. This abandons a
chance for an extra trick. but
safeguards the game against a
holding of four diamonds by one
defender.
No. 3 Is a case Of the declarer
being richer in trumps than nee
essary. After winning with the
heart A, usual play would be 10
begin ruffing hearts in the dunn
my. But there Is bare chance one
defender might over-ruff one Of
those tricks with the jack. Declar-
err here can afford to take two
high trumps before ruling, and
still leave two in the dummy for
the necessary two ruffs.
No. 4 is an example Of how the
declarer should completely re-.
verse the usual process Of ruffing
in the dummy and should ruff in
his own hand, treating the dummy
as the master hand II he drops
trumps after winning the heart
ace. he may lose four club tricks
in case the missing ones are not
divided. Correct play is the heart

heart 7 ruffed by the spade Q. dia.
mond 6 to the A, heart s ruffed by
the spade 10. diamond 7 to the Q.

hand, and let the opponents have
three club tricks.

MAJOR de SEVERSKY

CONTINUING the brief EUR
- vey Of the role OF air power
during 1943, we must note the
capture of the island of Pan
telleria off Sicily on June II,
after Is days of continuous bonn
bardment.
The island surrendered to air
power alone, and Gen. Doolittte
was justified in asserting that il
was definitely a landmark in
the history of military aviation"
On miniature scale Pantei-
leria proved that air power
alone eouid attain victory, pro-
Vded the available force is COM
mensurate with the task 10 be
accomplished.
The collapse of the worlds
first Fascist regime. that of
MusSolini, and the surrender of
Italy 10 the Allies shortly there
after must be chalked up to air
power.
On July 10 some 500 plaHes
bombed Rome for the first time
II was this and the threatened
destruction of all great Italian
cities from overhead whic h
spelled the end of Italian resist
ance even before an Allied sol
der set foot on the Italian
mainland.
