The Bidding.
Mr. Schenken held the South cards. Some players might be in- clined to open with a bid of one diamond, but the real advantage in this hand is in having it led up to rather than through-there may be an extra trick gained by the opening lead.
The band also contains four quick tricks, so Mr. Schenken started the contracting with a bid of one no trump.
The Aupplementary vote of $3,000 approved in Supplementary wudget in Extension of Lighting, longkong, aid of Head 36, sub-hend, Item 3 was thus ninde in error, and the amount voted should have been in uld of Head 36, sub-hend, Item 1 Gas Lighting, Hongkong.

Mr. Schenken ran off five heart tricks, discarding a diamond and a club from his own land. East dropped two spades, and West dis- carded three clubs.
These three club diseards gave Mr. Schenken the tip-off that West was trying to protect the king of amonds, therefore he immediate- ly led a small club from dummy, winning with the ace in his own hand, and then threw West in the feat by playing the fack of apalos.
West canhed his four good spade tricks, but was now forced to lead a diamond Into Mr. Schen Fin's ace queen, thus giving him the extra trick he needed for game.
