of ,"Penrod" and Seventeen" When
he entered Princeton the club was
known as the Princeton Dramatic
Association, but when he was elected
president in 1893 it was renamed
the Triangle Club. The name tri-
angle was an allusion to the musical
instrument sometimes played by the
accompanying orchestra. Tarking-
ton was also co-author of the libret-
to of that years show, the first to
be written entirely by club members.
Incidentally. profits from the trip
each year contribute to the mainte-

Written for NEA Service
Looking at all four hands and
actually playing a hand are two
very different matters. Here is a
hand that l watched at several
tables in a recent duplicate game.
Most of the North-South pairs got
to five clubs. They all made it,
although it was defended in two
different ways.
The opening heart lead was won
in dummy with the ace, and a
small club was led. Some East
players decided that West had to
have the ace OF diamonds to justi-
fy the double Of five clubs.
Therefore, they went up with
the ace of clubs on trick two in
order to lead back the singleton
deuce of diamonds, hoping to get
a diamond ruff and. set the con
tract. OF course, they caught their
partners queen, and West did not
have the ace Of diamonds. So the
contract was made.
Should East have played the ace
Of clubs at trick two? Undoubt-
eddy a player would need a few
seconds to decide this question,
after the small club was led from
dummy.
At the tables where East played
the deuce of clubs instead of the
ace, declarer knew that the only
reason for East's hesitation was
that he held the ace of clubs.
Therefore, declarer went up with
the king and dropped Vests
queen.
Then he proceeded to trump out
his losing diamonds, letting East
cash the ace Of clubs whenever
he wanted to.
OF course, looking at all four
hands, We would say that East
should have played the deuce of
clubs quickly at trick two and de-
clarer should have taken the fl
nesse. But down he would go
as he would have lost two clubs
and a diamond.
