Don't Show Hook to q Poor Fish
BY ALFRED SHERWOOD

You made the crucial play
before East could tell what you
were up to. There would be a
different story to tell If you
began by taking the top spades
and the top diamonds. East
would see what was coming and
he would play his king of clubs
on the first round of that suit.
He would save his low club to
get out.
That would get him of the
hook, and you'd be on it instead!

Opening lead: Eight of hearts.
West leads the eight of hearts
and East takes the queen and
ace. East then leads a third
heart and you hold your breath
until West follows suit.
Whew! If West had trumped
you could start looking for an
undertaken. AS 1t is you're
still alive.
What are you going to do to
avoid the loss Of two club tricks?
The first step is to lead a low
club from dummy. Right away,
quick! And be sure to look
innocent.
This play, as we will soon see,
is a way of Disgusting the hook.
Strip for Action
East plays his low club and
you win with the ace. The fish
is now on the hook and you can
strip for action--if you don't
mind mixing your metaphors.
Take two top spades and two
top diamonds. Then lead a low
club and hold your breath again.
East is obliged to win the
trick with his king of clubs. He
has only red cards left, and
must lead one of them. This
permits you to discard the last
club from your hand, while
dummy ruffs.
The contract is home, and you
can start to breathe again.
Very lucky, Of course, that
East had only two cards in each

you gave yourself the best

IN part to the increasing

children are the most active

Who's using the many new

The Post once Depart

Postmaster General Summer
field.
These numbers have a
definite purpose in so far as
the Bureau Of Engraving and
Printing is concerned, and
we see no reason TO do away
with them" he said.
1T is recognized that col.
lectors find 1t difiicult TO
secure all positions of each
plate number. particularly
where bicolored stamps have
been concerned" he added.
1T has been impossible. thus
far. to establish any pro-
cedure whereby all positions
and numbers could be stocked
at the Philatelic Agency or
anywhere else"
Canadian collectors will
still be able to secure spe-

Summerield noted. but we
do not believe 1t advisable to
have one form Of sheet for
general sales and another for
