that The Steamship,
There is no question but you can get awfully bad breaks In the play of a hand. Haven't you often heard a declarer remark at the end of a hand, "I just couldn't get one suit to break?"
The next time you hear that ro- mark, ask them to lay the hand out on the table again and se if a little thinking wouldn't have produced botter results.
The following hand was played in a recent tournament, and it was surprising to note that only one player found a way to make three no trump, and he did it be- cause he decided that none of the suita would break-this is the key of the hand.
The Bidding
South bid one diamond, West passed and North responded with one-spade-which-suited Enst very well, South went to two no trump and North took the contract to three no trump.

Enst now made a very nice re- turn he came back with the Jack of clubs. The declarer. however. refused to win the trick and East continued with the nine of clubs. which North won with the nce.
The declarer then led a small diamond from dummy and won in his own hand with the
queen.
The seven of spades 1/8 then played and West showed out, dis- carding the douce of hearts. The declarer played a small spade from dummy and East won with the ten.
ΠΟ
East returned the jack of dia- atends, which immediately told the declarer that East had more clubs or the clubs would have been continued.
The declarer could now count every card in the East hand. West had shown out of spades. therefore that left East with four paden. He has not returned a club, so he must have three dia-
monds.

West let go the five of hearts. The eight of diamonds was played from dummy, South winning with the Ace, and West was helpless.
