CONTRACT
BRIDGE
By W. E. McKenney
When is it safe to make a pen- alty double? I don't believe it paya to do so unless you have more than one way of defeating the contract.
For example, if the declarer bida for six odd and it looks as though you have two trump tricks, I don't believe that makes a safe double, You should have another possible. trlek in your hand,
In other words, don't double a contract unless you feel that you can set the declarer two tricke- then if you do lose one of the tricks you are counting on, you are sure to set the contract. There is no such thinge ns free double.
However, don't become dis- couraged j! the declarer DC- ensionally maken a contract which you have doubled, because if you always set the declarer when you double, you are not doubling fee- quently enough. Take for instance the following hand-West cannot be severely criticised for doubling the contract of six hearts, pet Mrs. H. D. Stabl, the former national women's clumpion, of Pittsburgh, Pa.. made six hearts doubled.
The Bidding
Mrs. Stahl in the South opened with one heart. North put in a jump overcall of three clubs which is not only a game-demand bid.

but is also a mild slam invitation. Mrs. Stahl replied with three hearts.
North felt that the only thing that her partner could have to jus- tify a re-bid in hearts was the ace of spades and a strong five or six- card heart suit. North's next bid, therefore, was six hearts, which West doubled.
The Play
West's opening lend was the ten of clubs, which was won in dummy. with the ace. The ace of hearts was played and then a small spade, which the declarer won with the jack.
The king of hearts. Was then cashed, a small club being discard- ed from dummy, and East showed out, leaving West with the jack, nine and eight of hearts. Mrs. Stabl still had the queen, ten, six and five of hearts, and it looked as though she might have to lose two heart tricks.
However, she next played her Jack of diamonds, West covered
