South west North East
IL Pass ~ Pass
l3NT All Pass
Opening lead: Diamond deuce.
West opened the deuce Of dia-
monds, and South won with the
queen. Declarer led a club to
dummy's jack and returned a
club. East took the ace, and
West discarded the deuce Of
spades.
East was perfectly healthy.
In fact, he was Peter Fender, a
celebrated athlete who conducts
an ice-Skating school in Van
couver when he isn't winning
bridge championships. Healthy
or not, Fender did not return
a diamond.
Instead, Fender got off thin
ice by returning the only card
that could defeat the contract.
It's easy to find II you're look
ing at all four hands, but Fender
worked it out by logic.
Informative Lead
Vests opening lead was very
Informative. The deuce Of dia-
monds was evidently fourth
best. Since West could not hold
any diamond lower than the
deuce, West started with only
four diamonds.
Surely West would have led
from a fine-card suit If he had
held one. When West showed Up
with only one club, it was clear
that he had four cards in each
Of the other suits.
If West had four hearts, South
had only one heart. Clearly
hearts was the suit to attack.
since South's singleton heart
might be the queen, Fender re-
turned the king of hearts.
This demolished poor South.
He had only eight tricks at best.
When he tried a spade finesse,
the opponents ran the rest of
the hearts and collected a two
trek penalty.
If East had returned a dia-
mond, South could have afford
ed the spade finesse. The de-
tenders would take only two dia-
monds, a club, and a spade.
Daily Question

What do you say?
! Answer: Bid one diamond.
With only 4-card suits, respond
in the suit that can be bid most
economically.

lowered at a time when every
one knew the debt is rising.
Mr.. ByrneS offered the sub
stitute proposal, rejected oy
the committee. to make the
permanent debt ceiling $305
billion.
He said this would eliminate
the "gimmickry" of temporary
ceilings.
Despite Treasury protests t0
the contrary, Mr.. Byrnes said
the Government could manage
with a $305 billion ceiling at
least through August. He said
there would be tight squeezes
for a few days in June and in
August, but the Treasury could
manage by defcrring some ex-
penditures and selling some
Government assets.
ACCORDING TO treasury pro-
jections, the tightest squeeze
will come on August 30, when
the total debt is forecast at
$309.7 billion - SAT billion
above the ceiling proposed by
Mr.. Byrnes.
But this figure includes SOC
billion in the cash balance. Mr..
Byrnes said the Treasury could
stay within the ceiling by tenn
porarily reducing the cash bal
ance to SIG billion.
He said the Treasury would
have to request an increase in
the ceiling sometime during
the current congressional ses-
sion. He suggested that a net
debt formula might be ap-
proved if it were proposed by
the Treasury at that time.
