Kept Out Of Lead

By OSWALD JACOBY

South saw that the bulk of the tricks for his contract would have to come from dummy's Hong damund suit. He saw also that the sult had to be developed in such a way na to keep East out of the least.

The problem was solved In very straightforward manner. At the second trick South led a club to dummy's king. He next returned a low diamond from dummy and let this ride finesse through East.
