newspaper, and I am wondering if
this is a legitimate word. It is not
listed in Webster's.-Mrs. L. Y. K.
A. The word came into general
use during and following the 1946
presidential campaign, when the
Truman election upset the predic-
tions of the professional poll-takers
and political columnists and COM
mentators.
The word pollster, "one who con-
ducts a poll" is formed from poll
plus the suffix -ster. as in such
words as truckster, gangster, young
ster, trickster.
Thus the word pollster is quite
legitimate, although not yet listed
by the dictionaries

Opening lead, king of diamonds
The ability to count out a hanc
Is a talent that most players seem
to identify only with the declarer
AS matter of fact, it is just as
important in the defense of con-
tract and the opportunity for its
exercise is afforded to either side
with equal frequency. The West
player of today's hand by taking
time out to count the adverse
cards at the critical stage of the
play was able to make a very
thoughtful play to defeat an over
ly ambitious slam contract.
The bidding is recorded as it
actually took place. While it does
not carry our stamp of approval
1t nevertheless is not very far out
Of line. Proper strategy is to open
the South hand with one club, the
suit below the doubleton. There is
q distinct objection to opening
with one spade. when holding such
preponderance of high cards,
Partner is apt to be quite weak
and may fear to respond at an in
creased level.
North's jump to four spades,
even in the light of his previous
pass, is certainly open to question
South's leap to a slam was based
upon the belief that partner had a
great many spades and also prob
ably a smattering of high cards,
which would most likely show up In
the club suit.
The king of diamonds was opened
and the disappointing dummy
spread. The trick was taken by
declarer and the remaining diamond
ruffed in dummy Trumps were
drawn in two rounds and the four
heart tricks cashed, South dis
carding the deuce of clubs. A low
club was then led from dummy and
the 10, played by declarer. Had
West taken this trick, declarer
would have been home" since a
diamond continuation would permit
declarer to ruff In dummy and dis
card losing club, and a club re-
turn would permit Vests queen to
be trapped. Declarer is known to
have had four spades, three hearts,
only two diamonds (since if he had
any more diamonds, he would have
ruffed them out before making the
club play. He. therefore. had
originally four clubs and there was
no need to take the trick with the
ace.
There was nothing declarer could
do to prevent the loss of two club
tricks. The same situation would
develop if the jack of clubs had
been led from dummy East would
cover with the queen, South, the
king, and West would duck as
before.
