CONTRACT BRIDGE
By W. E. McKenney
At duplicato contract we see but few grand slams, due to the fact that if you fail to make the grand slam you will undoubtedly bo bottom on the board, while if you bid and make a small slam you will find that your match point acoro ls generally well above average-oven though you passed up a possible grand slam.
Howevor, at rubbor bridge, with the new grand alam bonus, we find many more grand slams being bld and made than under the old scoring. It pays to bid for the grand slam, even though you have to depend upon a finesse, a favourable opening, or a squeeze play to produce the contract.
I watched the following hand played in a rubber game at the Schenley Bridge Club in Pitts- burgh recently and the declarer had to resort to a neat squeeze play to make his contract.
The Bidding
South, the dealer, opened the contracting with one no trump. While his hand is not rich in tenace positions, it does have two kinga which the declarer would rather have led up to than through, and his original bid of one no trump advised his partner

no
South realized that his partner could not invite the slam without the two missing aces, and in ad- dition he must hold some of the missing queens. South bid four spades. North went to five spades and South knew they had a defi- nite fit in spades.
South bld six diamonds, which bid I don't particularly favour as it is apt to force a heart opening. North went to six no trump and South bid seven no trump.
The Play
West opened the eight of hearts, the jack was played-from-dummy, East put on the queen and de clarer won the trick with the king. Ile then ran off four club tricks, East discarding two hearts and declarer a diamond.
Declarer started the spade suit, and running four spade tricks winning the last trick in his own hand. East was forced to make three discards-he could safely discard two diamonds, but he was squeezed on the last spade.
If he dropped a heart, dummy's ace and nine would be good, while if he let go a diamond de- clarer could cash his ace and king of diamonds and the nine of dia- monds would win the needed thir- teenth trick.
