West opened the king of dia- monds and Miss Murdoch saw that! to make her contract she could afford to lose only one spade trick, If both the king and queen of spades wore in the West hand, she could throw that hand into the lead with one of the spade honours and force him to lead away from the other.

CONSIGNEES' NOTICES.
But this could be accomplished only by stripping her hand and from the king-tive of spades into From SYDNEY and MELBOURNE the dummy's of diamonds and Miss Murdoch's nce-jack. clubs.
She planned the play of the hand before winning the first trick and, after coming to a decision, pro- ceeded in this way.
She won the first trick with the ace and ruffed a diamond with the four of hearts. The ace and king of trump were then played, then the ace of clubs, and a small club' ruffed in dummy.
Another diamond was rulfed in her hand and still another club trumped in the dummy. The last diamond was played from dummy, ruffed by declarer and the last club ruffed with the queen of hearts.)
Misa Murdoch then led the ten of spades and Anessed it, West win- ning the trick with the queen,
West now was in the helpless position of being forced to lend!
Today's Contract Problem Miss Elinor Murdoch, in the South, played this contract at thero no trump. Even though North had bid clubs, West opened the are of clubs. How did Mins Murdoch make her Contract?
