AS usual, Mr.. Muzzy's analysis was
faulty. What he, meant was that
the contact depended only on the
spade finesse. Actually, it depended
on lot more than the location of
the king>of spades.
Mr.. Masters won the first trick
with the ace of clubs and paused to
consider the situation. He finally
decided that desperate measures
were necessary and laid down the
king Of hearts. He was delighted
when this held and Mr.. Champion
played the encouraging ten-spot.
Still Hoped To Win.
He continued with the deuce of
hearts and Mr.. Champion won with
the ace. At this point Mr.. MuzsyI
still expected to make the hand i'll
the king of spades was on side. InI
fact, If he had known each oppo-
nent's spade holding he would have
laid down his cards, claiming thei
balance.
That would have been a mistake
because the opponents play at theI
next trick set them up a trump
winner where none had been before.
After winning with the ace Of
hearts, Mr.. Champion diabolicallyl
led a third round of the suit andI
Mr. Masters ruffed 1t with the nine
Of spades.
Made Him Fr0wn.
Mr.. Muzzy frowned at this del
velopment. "How many tricks have
you, got?" he demanded. Assured
it was three, he overruffed with the
jack of spades. Now Mr.. Champions
king ten represented a perfect tenace
over Mr.. Muzzy's queen-eight.
Mr.. Muzzy led a small spade. hop
ing Mr.. Champion had started with
the singleton king-but it was no 60.
Beautiful defense had beaten the
contract one trick.
mice analysis you put out on
this hand, Muzzy," sneered Mr..
Abel. "It was up to two things
