duck and win the spade con-
tinuation, flnessing the jack
unless you returned the king.
He would then lead a diamond
and although Mr.. Dale could
win with the king Of diamonds
he would have no spade to
return. Any other return would
give Mr.. Champion ample time
to knock out the ace Of dia-
monds while he still held q
spade stopper.
Mr.. Masters did not play q
spade honor at trick one. He
played the nine, conserving his
honors but indicating interest
in the continuation Of the suit.
Here was his reasoning: The
eight spot was undoubtedly Mr..
Dale's highest spade. The five
was the only card lower than
the eight which was not show
ing in dummy or in Mr.. Mas
ters' hand. Therefore Mr.. Dale
had started with either the lone
eight or the eight-five double
ton.
It was clear, then, that Mr..
Champion had A-J-10, two sure
shoppers in the suit. To beat
the hand 1t appeared that MIR.
Dale would have to hold two
spades and a diamond stopper.
Even If that were the case 1t
was essential to leave the Sec
ond spade in his hand so that
he could lead 1t when he got in
with his diamond honor.
Mr.. Masters realized that If
he played the queen at trick
one Mr.. Champion would be
smart enough to lay of.
Therefore he forced Mr.. Cham
pion to win the first trick.
That was the key play. After
winning with the ten Of spades
Mr.. Champion led a diamond.
Mr.. Dale won with the king and
led his last spade. The queen
went up and Mr.. Champion laid
of. But 1t did him no good.
Another spade knocked out his
ace. He had only eight win
ners outside Of diamonds and
when he led that suit again Mr..
Masters won with the ace and
cashed two good spades to
break the contract.
