CONTRACT BRIDGE
Solution to Previous Contract Problem.
By W, E. McKenney
Do you recall, in the old days of auction, they used to get out books and cards telling you what the proper opening leads were when holding certain combinations of cards?
In contract, the book openings do not always work. You have to

listen to the bidding. und try to visualize your partner's and your opponents hands.
While short met openings may work occasionally against a no trump contract, it still pays to attack no trumps with a long, strong sult, if you have side en tries.
But when you make an opening fead and the dummy goes down, you may be forced to change your whole plant of attack, and that is the fun of contract. There aomething new coming up with every hand.
The Play
Against three no trump, West's best opening is the king of clubs, upon which his partner plays a
Now small one.
you might say the natural thing to do is to lead a small club and let the declarer make his queen, so that, in caso your partner does get in, he may have a club to return.
But you hold a singleton din- mond, and if you play a low club, can't you sco that you may find yourself squeezed, with that long diamond suit in dummy staring you in the face?
The best plan of attack in this hand is to cash your ace of clube, and you will eventually make an- other club and a heart trick.
It will not defeat the contract, but if you lead a small club the declarer is going to get a squeeze on you, and an end play. He will throw you in and force you to lead away from your king of spades, and in this manner he will make four odd.
Today's Contract Problem
South's contract in three no trump. Weat opens the jack of clubs, which East Wins with the ace East returns the seren. - How should South proceed with the play?
