Mr.. Dale thought about dou-
bling four hearts, the contract
which Mrs. Keen and Mr.. Abel
had so bravely reached. His
partner had opened the bidding
and rebid freely. However, he
remembered that his partner was
Miss Brash and decided he would
be glad just to defeat the con-
tract, doubled or not.
He opened the deuce Of spades.
o small one went on from dummy
and Miss Brash won with the
eight spot.
The king Of spades was re-
turned and Mrs. Keen correctly
figured Mr.. Dale had led a sin
gleton. She trumped with the
jack of hearts, determined either
to win the trick or to knock out
the ace Of trumps.
Mr.. Dale had the ace Of trumps,
but he made the good decision
not to use it at this point. In
stead, he simply discarded a
small club. This was the key
play on the hand.
AS you can see, If Mr.. Dale had
overruffed with the ace of hearts.
Mrs. Keen could have won any
return and laid down the king
and queen of hearts. That would
have left Mr.. Dale with one
trump winner, which would have
been his sides last trick.
But, as the play came up, Mr..
Dale was able to win as many as
three trump tricks and thus de-
feat the contract. After win
ming the second trick, Mrs. Keen
led to dummy's ace of diamonds
and returned a heart, hoping
Miss Brash held the ace Of that
suit.
When Miss Brash played the
deuce, the queen was put up and
it lost to the ace. Mr.. Dale re-
turned the ten of hearts which
knocked out the king and now his
two remaining hearts were high.
Miss Brash says there is no
system like the "ace-king" sys-
tenn. She is right. It's very fine
to have a lot of high cards dealt
to you consistently. But often
they are wasted unless you know
when to use them.
