Epades and Y and B passed. Z now bid
three diamonds, A passed, Y bid three
nearts, V and z passed and A oouoieu.
All passed and A opened the king of
spades. How should Z plan the play of
the hand? Before Z plays a card he
should size up the situation very care
fully. His reasoning should be some
what as follows: "A has bid two spades
without any help from his partner and
has doubled, three hearts. The only
cards that would justify his bid and
double would be at least six spades to
ir honors, four hearts, probably to
the ace ten and the ace queen of dia
monds. 1 can make eight tricks easily
us I must win one spade trick, two
club tricks, four heart tricks and one
' trump in dummy of club. The question
is, how can I get the extra trick, in the
diamond suit.-1'1 After this analysis, Z
should win the first trick with the ace
of spades. He 6hould then lead two
rounds of clubs and trump the third
round in Y's hand. If A has only two
clubs, he must play the ten of hearts
to win the trick. If he does, Y should
discard a diamond. Assume, however,
that Y won the fourth trick. He should
now play the three of diamonds and
finesse the ten spot in Z's hand. If A
has the queen, he is now in a difficult
position for if he leads trumps, will
only make one trump trick and if he
doesn't Z can trump the third round of
diamonds in Y's hand. If A lead9 a
spade, Z will trump and lead another
diamond, forcing A' into the same diffi
cult position. Played in this way YZ
should make three odd against good
play aid with all the high cards in A's
hand. The important point to note
nbout this hand is that Z must not lend
' r;-uinps at any stage of the Rame. He
must makv the most of Y's little tru:nps.
It is an reject lesson, in when not to
leai tni'ips.

dealt and bid three spades, A and Y
passed, B doubled and all pajaed. What
should A lead? To the writw, thU seems
easy. Z has made an original bid of
three spades and if correct, It should
indicate lack of help for hearts, the
other major suit. Kor that reason, the
lead of the deuce of hearts seems to be ,
A's best lead. The next best load wouM F
be the ace of clubs, '

A opened the ace of diamonds and all
follow. What should A now lead to tk
second trick? There are two potabilities
for A to consider. First, the lead of the
deuce of clubs. Z may finesse the jack
and if B has the queen, AB may save
game then and there. The objection to
this lead is the fact that Z may have a
singleton club and play the king from
Y's hand. The second alternative is the
lead of the trey of hearts. If B has the
king queen of hearts, AB can save game
by making two heart tricks andl the
ace of clubs. The writer favors the lead
of the trey of hearts but would not '
criticize the lead of a low club. It is a
very close hand.

A two spades, Y three hearts and B
three spades. Z now bid four hearts.
What should A now bid with the fore
going hand? This is another close hand.
A has the choice of doubling four hearts
or of bidding four spades. It is the rub
ber game so nis decision is an important
one. If he doubles four hearts, he can
not hutire on winning more than one
heart trick, two diamond tricks and one
spade trick. In other words, if he doub
les he cannot hope to defeat his op
ponents more than one trick. On the
.other hand, if he bids four spades, he
ought to make it. AB should not lose
more than one heart trick, one club
trick and one spade trick. If that analy
sis Is correct, A should certainly bid
four spades in preference to doubling
four hearts. If he makes the bid, he
sr:orcs game and rubber, the v ilue of
which is easily 400 points. -If he could
only win 100 points on the double, the
