Solution to Previous Contract Problem.
The 12th of this series of 18 playing problems by Henry F. Jaeger employs a simple squeeze play,
It would appear that North, the declarer, should have no trouble in making his contract of six odd. However it is unfortunate that the spade suit will not break, as West has control. East has control of the hearts and diamonds, while, be- tween East and West, they have control of the club sult,
But the declarer, during the play of the hand, can get a good count on the East hand, and still make his contract.

I do not like original no trump |bida_with_n_singleton. However, North has 180 aces, nine cold tricks, and you can hardly blame him for wanting to tell his partner about all those high card tricks.
A forcing two bid would per- haps answer the purpose better and | jassure a slam contract. With the original bid of three no trump, it is just fortunate that South kept the bidding open. North's jump to six no trump might be termed optimistic.

In any case, the small slam con- tract, will be made,
