CONTRACT BRIDGE
By W. E. McKenney
Al auction or contract it is very necessary that the bridge player have a full knowledge of leads, proper responser and the message they convey to partner. The most Important of all leads the original or opening lead. When partner has bid, the leads are divided into two clisses--leads against a no trump declaration, and leads against a suit declara-
tion.
To-day we will consider truda against a no trump declaration.
