His return lead after winning the
opening diamond trick in today's
deal entranced his gallery of
kibitizers. Mrs. Keen led the deuce
OF diamonds, the trey was played
from dummy and Mr.. Meek won the
ten.
Here he went into a long study. He
threw back his head and carefully
inspected a corner of the ceiling.
Next he put his cards on the table
and laid his head in his hands.
Then he looked hard at Miss Brash
Mrs. Keen, the dummy and the spot
on the ceiling. in that order.
Led Heart 4.
Finally he picked up his cards
and made a play that brought the
kibitzerS up in their seats. He led
the four of hearts.
When Mrs. Keen turned up with
vthe jack, the contract was doomed.
Mr.. Dale won with dummy's queen
and pulled trumps.
He started on the clubs and MIR.
Meek won and banged down the
king of hearts. When he was in
with his other high club he won the
setting trick with the ten of hearts.
Let's see how Mr.. Meek figured
out that sensational lead at trick
two. First. the ace, king and queen
of every suit but spades were show
ing.
And as to the spade suit, even
Miss BraSh would have five spades
to the ace-king for her overcall.
Thus there were no spade tricks for
the defenders.
On the bidding and the lead of
the deuce of diamonds, Mr.. Meek
figured Miss Brash had a singleton
and one diamond trick was the
limit.
In clubs, Mis- Brash had bid two
no-trump over the two-club bid and
therefore must have some kind of
club stopper. What could this be
except four clubs to the jack or the
jack-ten.
If the latter were the case, Miss
Brash could set up two good clubs
in her hand on which two heart dis
cards could be made from dummy.
So Mr.. Meek decided the heart
suit had to be attacked before Miss
Brash got even one shot at the club
suit. He was so right. One lost
tempo" and the game would have
been made.

young college girls going to class, poised post

The movies, radio and television have
