for a Michigan farmer. In the

what the word implies-a rustic
from the hills The American
Dialect Dictionary by Harold

North East South West
Pass Pass So Dble.
All Pass
Opening lead: King Of hearts.
West starts off with the king
and ace of hearts. and South
ruffs the second round. De-
clarer draws two rounds of
trumps and then leads the four
of spades.
West must play low, since
otherwise declarer would make
two spade tricks. Dummy wins
with the king of spades, and
South proceeds to rattle off the
rest of his trumps.
The theory is that West can
not afford to blank his king
of diamonds. Vests last three
cards must be two diamonds
and the singleton ace of spades.
Thereupon South leads a spade
to throw West into the lead.
West must return a diamond,
permitting declarer to win a
trick with the queen Of dia-
monds and thus make the con-
tract.
Tries to Escape
If West is an expert, he tries
to escape from the trap.
He might try to confuse
South about the last three
cards in the West hand. West
might discard the jack of dia-
monds, saving K-7 of diamonds
and the ace of spades. If
South leads a diamond, in
stead of the spade, thinking
that West has kept the blank
king of diamonds, he fails to
make the contract.
If West doesn't have the
jack of diamonds, he might try
banking the king of diamonds
fairly early. A player who tries
this stratagem must discard
the low diamonds calmly and
without apparent pain. If
South eventually leads a spade,
West can take two spade tricks
since he has saved two spades
and only one diamond.
Declarer can usually tell
what is going on IL he pays
- careful attention to the
all of the cards especially to
those played by East. AS a
rule, East is out of the pic
ture and will be trying to dis
card honestly" in the hope of
helping West. When in doubt,
South should believe East
rather than West.
Daily Question
Partner opens with one
heart, and the next player
passes. You hold.
AJ765 0Q1087 11098 @J9I
What do you say?
Answer: Bid two hearts. You
have only four points in high
cards, with one point for
doubleton. but should count an
extra point for the queen of
partners suit. Avoid passing
partners opening bid when you
have fine support for his suit.
