the first trick with the ace of
clubs. He continues with the
queen of clubs, and South wins
with the king.
South gets over to dummy
to try spade fineSse, losing to
the king. West cannot lead a
club and cannot give the lead
TO his partner. He must turn
the lead over to declarer.
South easily draws the rest of
the trumps and discards one
club on dummy'S king of
hearts. South must eventually
give up another club but he
makes his contract, losing only
two clubs and one trump.
Better Result
The defenders get a better
result if East plays one of his
lower clubs on the first trick.
South must win the first trick
with the king for fear of losing
it.
Declarer's best course is to
take the top hearts, discarding
a club, and try the spade
fineSse. West wins with the
king of spades and leads his
remaining club.
This is the time East has
waited for. He takes the ace
OF clubs, cashes the queen of
clubs, and then leads his last
club.
South cannot shut put the

nine of spades. If South is in
position to ruff high, he will be
unable to draw the nine of
spades later on. If South fails
to ruff high, West will win a
trick at once with the nine of
spades.
How does East know West
has led a doubleton? Good
players do not lead top of

suit. so Vests lead is either a
singleton or a doubleton. If
West had a singleton, South
would have five clubs without

ever having bid the suit. The
evidence all points to the dou-
bleton theory, and East should
go along with the evidence.

~ the Associated Press

The Commerce Department
has sharply curtailed its
Sputnik- inspired program OF
supplying English translations
Of Soviet scientific literature.
Without making any public
announcement. 1t was learned
today, the department has
stopped issuing 100 seperate
publications which boiled down
every article appearing in 100
Russian technical journals.
Partially to replace these, the
department plans six new pub
locations which will abstract
only those articles in both
Soviet and Chinese Communist
magazines which are deemed
most significant. Each Of the
six will cover q separate broad
area Of science and technology.
Lack Of public demand, ="
was blamed for the cutback in
the program, established after
the Soviets launched their first
Sputnik In 1857. There were
widespread complaints at that
time that American scientists
weren't keeping abreast Of de-
velopments from behind the
