Next a heart was led to the Ace and a heart ruffed, East discarding a club. And now dummy was entered for the fifth time with a club. At this point East was down to the Jack and one spade, and since Mr. Schenken held a tenace over him, the Jack was finally captured.

In order to make his contract, Mr. Schenken had to take two ap- parently unnecessary finesses in order to provide enough entries to dummy.
