Opening lead: King of spades.


When the women's world
championship was held in Italy
a few weeks ago, this hand was
dealt in the match between
Great Britain and South Africa.
The English girls won a good
part Of their victory by the
way they bid the hand.
At one table, Mrs. Fritzie
Gordon got to six diamonds
doubled, as shown in the bid
ding diagram. She ruffed the
second spade, drew trumps, and
took the club fineSse. When it
worked, she was home with a
score of 1,540 points for Eng
land.
At the other table, England
held the East-WeSt cards. Mrs.
RiXi Markus got to six spades
with the West hand and scored
an additional l,430 points for
England. Probably South should
have doubled to ask for a heart
opening lead, but she was afraid
that the heart ruff might be
her only trick.
Bid One More
The important point about
such hands is that it pays to
buy" them. Become declarer,
and let the other side find the
right defense. Bid as high as
you dare, and if the opponents
continue to bid, don't be in a
hurry to sell out; bid one more
of your own suit, just for luck.
In a surprising number of
freakish hands, each side can
make a very high contract. In
a market of this kind it is far
better to buy than to sell.
Daily Question
As dealer, you hold:

What do you say?
Answer: Bid one spade. With
two suits of equal length, show
the higher suit first. CPay no
attention to the South African
girls bid of one heart; it
helped land her in the soupD

Freukish Hands
Cause Big Swings
By ALFRED SHEINWOLD

Usually you need about two
thirds of the high cards in a
deck to make a game, and
about four-fifths to make a
slam. Only one side can have
this preponderance of power, SO
when both sides bid eagerly be-
yond game the distribution is
surely freakish.

Take Each Step at Right Time

ond time to run a second heart,
and a third time to cash the
last heart. You need three en-
tries to dummy, each at the
right time.
This should tell you how to
proceed. You begin by leading
a heart to dummy's ace. The
next step is to ruff a low heart.
There is very little danger of
an overruff at this early stage.
Now you draw trumps by lead
ing out the king of spades and
then a low spade to dummy's
ace. If the queen of spades
falls you will have no further
problem. But since the queen of
spades doesn't fall you must
proceed with the hearts.
You cash the king of hearts,
diScarding a diamond, and ruff

a heart. 1t doesn't help West
TO overruff. Whatever he does
he cannot stop you from ruff
ing your ten Of clubs in the
dummy to cash the last heart
West can get only his queen OF
spades.
Your careful planning warned
you to delay the club ruff as
long as possible. You must
run the ten of clubs at the
eighth trick instead of the
second.
Daily Question

and the next player passes
You hold:
As 0J1OS2 0Q1o4 +s76s1
What do you bid?
Answer: Two of hearts with
a reliable partner; pass with q
f1ighty partner. 1t is better to
raise in the hope of shutting an
opponent out. Despite the
skimpiness of the hand you are
unlikely to get into trouble
with a good trump suit.

BY ALFRED SHEINWOLD

Opening lead: King of clubs.
West opens the king of clubs
and you win with the ace. You
certainly want to ruff the ten of
clubs with one of dummy'S
trumps, but there is no hurry.
Begin your planning by count
ing your losers. If you get a
bad trump break you will have
to lose a trump trick. To guard
against this danger you must
find a way to get rid Of both
low diamonds.
You note that you can dis
card one diamond on one Of
dummy's high hearts. The best
way to discard the other dia-
mond is to set up dummy'S
hearts so that one Of the low
cards becomes q winner.

scrapboOk Date, January "a

ScrapboOk Date. January "a
Mild weather. sometimes too
mild. has made the winter pro-
lection Of the more tender
broadleaved evergreens some
thing of a puzzle. Even though
shaded from the winter sun, the
temperatures have been high
enough to stimulate leaf and
bud activity. There is very lit
tie that the gardener can do
to overcome this situation.
Plants on the south side of the
house are particularly difficult
to handle.
This winter should be a good
test for the mulching of chry-
santhemums to determine If it
will help to bring the plants
through the winter or at least
reduce the extent of winter
killing. It would also seem likely
that the polyethylene cover
would be likely to draw too
much heat to do the job. This
is one place where we need re-
search because few gardeners
have cold frames in which
these plants may be stored with
a fair degree of safety.

Roses in Sun

From Mrs. S. J. Ndrtnt,
I249 Girard Street NV.
Why do not roses planted ir
full sun bloom normally? The
buds on these do not oper
properly. while nearby roses In
less sun function normally.
AnsUer
This could be because of sew
eral factors. /. The roses may
have been infested with thrips
a tiny insect that sucks the
juices out Of the petals so that
they cannot function normally
Thrips only work on light
colored roses. Q. Mildew Is
sometimes a problem in certain
locations. Suggest you use a
dormant spray Qime-sulphur)
on the roses in early March
after pruning. 8. Stem canker
and brown canker reduce the
flow Of sap through the canes
and so weaken the flowers that
they do not act naturally. Look
for signs Of this disease lower
down on the canes. The thrips
can be controlled. If showers
are infrequent. by spraying
with Malathion.
