At auction, we often heard the expression, "It was a free double," but there are no free doubles at contract. It is very expensive to double unless you are positiva o. setting the declarer at least two tricks, as he may respond with a redouble which may prove very costly.

The Bidding.

South passed and West passed. Mr. McDiarmid, who was sitting in the North, opened with one that the re- spade. Remember quirements for a third hand bid under the one over one system are a great deal less than those re- quired for either first or second hand bidding. Eaat made an in- formatory double. South bid two cluba, West passed, and Mr. Mc- Diarmid bid two diamonde. East passed and South went to three clubs. North then went to three no trump, which East doubled.

The Play.

The opening lead by East was the five of diamonds. West went right up with the king and Mr. McDiarmid, the declarer, won the trick with the ace and then led the ten of clubs. East made a nice play and refused to cover the ten as there were only three miasing. clubs-if the declarer held two clubs, Mr. McDiarmid was going to be able to finesse through East anyway, while if that was a single- ton, the declarer might make the mistake of not going up with the queen in dummy.

However, Mr. McDiarmid re- fused to be trapped and played the queen from dummy which held the trick. He then led the ace of clubs from dummy and there is where the declarer made a very fine play -the double practically marked for him the two missing aces, therefore he did not throw a small spado, but discarded the queen of spades.

East

He then led a small club from

amall dummy and discarded a heart from his own hand. won the trick with the king and cashed his queen of diamonds, a heart being discarded from dum- my. East continued with the ten of diamonds, dummy discarded an- other heart and Mr. McDiarmid, the declarer, won the trick with the jack and returned the nine of diamonds, discarding the jack of hearts from dummy.

You will notice that he had re- tained the jack and six of spades in dummy. He now led a small spade and you can see that East le helpless. If he goes in with the ace, the jack of spades will be an entry for the declarer, while if he refuses to win this trick with the ace, he will only make one more trick. His safe play is to win with the ace of spades and then cash his àco of hearts.
