The Bidding.
Mr. Schenken held the South cards. Some players might be in- clined to open with a bid of one diamond, but the real advantage in this hand is in having it led up to rather than through-there may be an extra trick gained by the opening lend.
The hand also contains four
quick tricks, so Mr. Schenken started the contracting with a bid of one no trump.
West, knowing that South's bid of one no trump showed a strong hand, refrained from bidding his apades, preferring to open the spade suit in case Mr. Schenken arrived at a no trump game con- tract. North bid two hearts and East passed.
