FAMOUS THEATRE DESTROYEDA tangle of rubble is all that remains of one of Mos- cow's finest theatres, the Vakhtangov, after an air raid. Many of Soviet Russia's younger revolutionary dramatists had their first plays produced here. Tho· Moscow authorities point out that the Vakhtangov is far away from military objectives, such as Industrial plants or munitions factories.

As will be noted, North's bidding Was Ecarcely conservative, and South's redouble was highly ques- ilonable, The fact remains, how- ever, that no defence could have defeated the contract if South bad, adopted a line of play in keeping with his own redouble.

West opened the ace and another diamond, Declarer ruffed the latter and laid down the spade ace, Then, apparently determined to risk every- thing on a 3-2 break of trumps, he ted another spadel West swooped down with the queen and

cash- ed the king, drawing dummy's last trump and

beaving declarer with only anty one trump. A third diamond then

was played and declarer's state was

Declarer had had two lines of play,

one of them correct if the trumps were divided 3-3, the other if they were 41. But to play for the former break was frightfully dangerous. To play against a 4-1 trump break gavo at least an equal chance of success (better, considering West's double). and had this enormous advantage: if It went wrong, it would not go far wrong.

Thus, after ruffing the second diamond and enshing the spade ace, declarer should have rattled off clubs, West would have been powerless to take more than two spade tricks. It he ruffed the third club low, would overrun and declarer's three dummy mps would be ample protection West's blank K-Q. If Weat ruffed the third club high, dummy would discard its last diamond and, whatever West returned, declarer could control without difficulty.

The conclusion fa, of course, that when there are two possible lines fot play, elther of which may work, declarer must adopt the one which costly.

It goes wrong, will be the least
