If one cad possibly add one extra chance in a hundred to the percentage favour- ing your making the hand, you should do so even if in so doing you completely eliminate any pos kible overtrick.
A scene at the retrial of Corporal Robert Osman, of Brooklyn, NY at Fort Sherman, C.Z., on
a charge of selling milltary secrets to an enemy power. Previously sentenced by court martial to
20 years in prison, Osman (shown by arrow) was granted" new trial by President Roosevelt and was subsequently acquitted.

Although the hand seemed to offer an excellent play for seven the De- clarer correctly adopted a line of of play which consisted chicfy deliberately losing a trick, thereby "ONE automatically falling to, make seven but increasing considerably the chances of making the Small Slam.
