turned anything else, dummy
would ruff while South dis
carded a club.
i At rubber bridge West might
well go on to the next hand
and never realize that he
should have defeated the con-
tract. At duplicate he might
discover that several East
West pairs defeated four
hearts, and he might talk to
some Of the players to find
out how they had beaten the
contract.
The key play is very simple.
When South eventually leads
a low club, West must play a
forcing" card-high enough
to hold the lead or force a
higher card out Of the dummy.
In this case Vests only forcing
club is the queen. and he must
play 1t.
It goes against the grain
to waste a queen, but no other
play can produce the three
club tricks needed to defeat
the contract.

next turn. If you raise spades
without first redoubling, you
show good trump support but
nothing much else. In this case

Opening lead: Spade king
South refused the first tricE
on the theory that spades
would be continued. This came
to pass, and South won the
second trick with the ace OF
spades. 1t was q good play
because it forced West to take
his spade trick at a time when
he didn't know what to lead.
South drew three rounds of
trumps, cashed the three dia-
monds, and then led the five
OF clubs, all smoothly and
without delay.
West played with the same
smoothneSs. When South led
the low club, West followed
with the deuce Of clubs.
Plays Low
Declarer played a low club
from dummy, and East had
to win the trick with the 10

an opponent has made a Jump
bid with a two-suited hand.
Still, we have all made worse
doubles in our time.
West opened the queen of
spades, hoping to reduce
dummy's ruffing power and
thus safeguard his heart tricks.
1t was q reasonable idea, but 1t
accidentally served to steer
South away from q pitfall.
No Trouble
South had no trouble with
his doubled contract. He won
the first trick with the king Of
spades, led the top hearts and
ruffed a heart in dummy.
East was out OF hearts, but
was also out of trumps so
could do nothing to injure de-
clarer. South returned TO his
hand with the king OF dia-
monds and ruffed another
heart In dummy.
Now South's last heart was
good. Declarer could take the
ace Of diamonds and ruff a dia-
mond, allowing West 10 over
ruff . II he liked. West could
get only his two trump tricks
and the ace OF clubs.
Vests trump opening lead
looked good. but a club or dia-
mond opening might have pro-
duced a better result. South
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1963-06-17

might cash the top hearts and
ruff a heart with one Of
dummy's low trumps. II so,
East would overruff with the
seven Of spades.
Mind you. South should make
the contract by proper play. He
should ruff the third round of
hearts with dummy's eight of
spades just In case East has
the singleton seven Of trumps.
Having done so, South can get
to his hand with q trump and
then safely. ruff another low
heart.
