he was not vulnerable against

vulnerable opponents I cannot see why real criticism for his opening bid,

North's jump to six diamonds was mildly optimistic but again I have no criticism, Even with South's mirerable hand there would have been a good play for the slam if diamonds had broken three-two.

West's double was dangerous but since it worked out so suc- eessfully must approve it. West did know that his op- ponents were going to have trouble with the distribution of the hand.

As for North's redouble the less sald the better. The only: holding that West could be doubling on was a sure tnimp trick represented by five or maybe even six dimmonds,

In fact, North should prob- | ably have gone to six no-trump after the double. This contract .would 10 have made but I doubt if it would have been doubled,
