Mr. Lightner won in his own hand, laid down the club Ace, then played a second trump to dummy. He next trumped a club, then entered dummy7.12 with a diamond and ruffed the re- maining low club with his last trump. He now had to risk a second diamond lead to dummy in order to draw the remaining trumps. Fortunately,. West had a second diamond so that the only trick that was lost was dummy's lone heart.
