envious looks at us. They are now
instituting drastic changes in their
educational system to emulate
some of the facets of American
education. Soviet schools have
met the needs of the State. but
not the needs of the individual.
They have been used to indoc-

Look Hard
For Discard
BY ALFRED SHEINWOLD

It's usually good procedure to

Opening lead: Five of spades.
West leads a spade to the
ace, and back comes a dia-
mond. You step right up with
the ace of diamonds and lead
out the ace of trumps.
If the trumps break normally,
you will be able to draw them
in two or three rounds. Then
you will run the clubs, discard
ing dummy's jack of diamonds.
Unfortunately. the trumps
fail to break. 1t will do you no
good to draw all four trumps
and then discard the diamond
from dummy. How do you dis
card the queen of diamonds
from your hand?
The discard comes in a strange
way. Lead a low club to dunn
my's jack and ruff a spade high.
Lead a trump to the nine and
ruff another spade high. Lead
your last trump to dummy's 10
and then draw Vests last
trump with dummy's queen. On
this trick you discard your
queen of diamonds.
Dummy Reversal
This type of play is known
as a dummy reversal. Instead
of ruffing out your own losers
and setting up your own hand,
you ruff out dummy's losers.
The dummy reversal is hard
to plan if you count losers, but
easy if you count winners. You
can expect to wine five clubs,
one diamond and no spades.
You need six trump tricks to
total IL.
The simple way is to make
your own five trumps and get
one ruff in dummy. When the
bad trump break rules out the
simple plan, you think of max
ing dummy's four trumpS and
getting two ruffs in your own
hand. This leads you to the
dummy reversal with a mini
mum of deep thought.

Answer: Bid two hearts. The
