BY OSWALD JACOBY
WHEN
WH boday's hand was
played
the National Open Pair Championship, con- ducted in Miami by the American Contract Beldge League, West never dreamed that his small trumpe could bo important. He gol the surprise of his life when he took the twelfth and thirteenth tricks with the Elx and the four of spades.
West opened the jack of dia- monda, dummy covered with the queen, and East won with the king. East continued with the ten of diamonds, and all hands followed suit.
Eust now thought matters over carefully, and correctly decided to attack the hearts at once. The correct decision WOB not surprising, for the East player was my friend and associate, Alfred Sheinwold,
whose "First Book of Bridge" for teen-ager and other beginners is doing so much to introduce newcomers to the great and noble game of con- tract bridge.
Sheinwold cashed the age of hearts and led to his partner's kinst. West then continued with a low heart, and dummy was forced to ruff with the ace of spades.
Not knowing how to continue, South decided to try the three top clubs. When declarer led the third top club from dummy, Sheinwold carefully ruffed with the ten of spades. Declarer over-nuffed happily with the jack of spades, and then lookest around for a way to dispose of his last losing heart.
He could see no better plan than to ruff his last heart with dummy's queen of spades. Hav- ing done so, he then had to re- turn to his own hand to draw trung. He tried to get out by
low club leading dummy, but Sheinwold stepped of spades, up with the seven and dicklarer was obliged to

At this time, all-hands-were- reduced to three cards. Soul had the K-5-3 of spades, West had his original three trumps, anki East had the blank eight of spadeo. South could take one trick with the king of spades, but then West's six and four were bound to win the last two
three of spades.

For Jean
Carson has to face one or two dress limitations when she sees herself in Bond-street's mirrors.
Red hair and green eyes, for instance. Men love them and women envy them, but poor Jean finds there are quito a number of colours with which they "just won't go."
Jean, however, soon over- comes such difficulties, for she has a flair for clothes.
