He must have forgotten MS
pledge at the first trick because
he made his normal opening
lead of the deuce of spades. But
after that, he was in full swing.
Mr.. Heinsite won with the
queen of spades and cashed the
king. On his second trick MIR.
Muzzy devilishly discarded the
highest card in his hand, the king
of hearts. Mr.. Heinsite asked to
see the trick again and glanced
suspiciously at his partner. Then
he led the ace and a fourth
round of spades. Mr.. Muzzy
doggedly discarded the jack and
ten of hearts.
Mr.. Abel won the fourth lead
of spades with the jack. Hope
fully he led a heart to the ace.
Mr.. Muzzy discarded a small
club and it was clear that a
third round of hearts would be
won by Mr.. Heinsite, who had
two good spades in his hand.
Next Mr.. Abel tried the
diamonds, cashing the ace and
then leading to the king. Here
Mr.. Muzzy temporarily forgot
his resolve and played his two
smallest diamonds. On the Sec
ond diamond Mr.. Heinsite
dropped a spade.
1t now appeared to Mr.. Abel
that he had only one remain
ing chance for his contract-to
throw Mr.. Muzzy in with a club
for a return lead into the queen
ten of diamonds. Accordingly
he cashed the two top clubs.
Mr.. Muzzy punished" his part
ner further by dropping the
queen and jack.
When the nine of clubs fol-
lowed, it was Mr.. Heinsite who
won with the 10, and he cashed
a spade for the setting trick.
To accomplish the defeat of
the contract, note that it was
necessary for Mr.. Muzzy to get
rid of all his hearts. Otherwise.
Mr.. Abel could have permitted
him to hold the first heart lead
and then he could have collected
four heart tricks without losing
the lead to Mr.. Heinsite.
Mr.. Muzzy was surprised to
