East has to put up the diamond Ace to win the trick, thus establishing South's diamond East's best shift is to a King. club, but South takes the club Ace, draws two rounds of trumps, and discards dummy's last club In this on the King of diamonds. way, South saves two club tricks ut the expense of only one dia- mund trick.

From there on the play is easy. South ruffs two clubs and two diamonds in the dummy, making his contract.

ANSWER: Double.

Your own hand ought to produce at least two tricks in the red' suits, besides a probable spade trick; and your partner's hand ought to produce at least one club trick, probably more: Besides hoping to "mas- sacre", this contract, you double to make sure your partner is not tempted to go to five spades.
