Opening lead: Heart deuce.
He was almost unbearable a.
today's hand was being dealt
giving out with bits of bridge
knowledge to the assembled
kibitzers.
AS soon as the bidding wa,
over he whipped the deuce Of
hearts from his hand anc
slapped it on the table, glancine
keenly to right and left in what
he undoubtedly considered tc
be a very professional manner.
Mr.. Champion won with the
king Of hearts and returned the
eight. The ace won and a thire
round of the suit was taken BY
Miss Brash with the queen.
She paused to check on hel
winners-an easy job in this
case. After knocking out the
ace Of clubs she would have two
club tricks, two spades, q heart
and two diamonds. a total OF
seven. It was obvious that she
would need a lot of luck or a
lot of help from her opponents
to make the contract.
At trick four she led a small
diamond. Now Mr.. Muzzy's
cards in this suit were the
same as he had held in the
previous hand. In that deal he
had gone up with the jack,
which happened to be the only
play to defeat the contract.
Here it is again." he said to
|hiInself-and he plowed up with
the jack again. He looked
pityingly at Miss Brash as if to
say: what are you trying to
get away with?"
Miss Brash won with dunn
my's ace, messed the nine on
the way back and thus piled up
four diamond dinners. She then
knocked out the ace of clubs
and made her contract, losing
only three hearts and a club.
Mr.. Champion hit the ceiling.
"Why do you play like this?''
he reared. do you hate money
or something's"
you're SO changeable," Mr..
Muzzy complained. ION the
last hand I went up with the
jack, second hand, and you said
it was a fine play"
THAT was a different situa-
tion," gritted Mr.. Champion.
Here you had three hearts and
a club in sight. All you had to
do was sit back and wait for a
diamond or a spade trick. After
this when you make a good
play ! suggest that you rest on
your laurels for a couple Of
months"
