CONTRACT KEEP UPKEEP DOWN CONSIGNEES NOTICES. P & O BRITISH-INDIA APCAR AND
BRIDGE
By W. E. McKenney
If you are interested in working out bridge problems, the follow Ing hand should help you enjoy in hour or so of this pastime, and the problem is can you stop Southy the declarer, from making four opades?
East and West can put up a de-l fence, regardless of how the de- clarer plays the band, that will defeat the contract, but there are many Interesting angles to the hand. This hand also has another Interesting angle.
Many players have asked me. "What do you do with these large hands that do not have the ten probable tricks sufficient to make an original forcing two, bid, but which contain a great number of quick tricks?"such as to-day's Mur. 20 | hand.

The Bidding
6.4
11
The South hand contains five quick tricks, but is a long way from being a two bid under the one over one system.
It does not qualify as an origina} two no trump forcing bid, as it does not have a five-card sult, und of course it does not come in the three no trump claza as it cannot guarantee
without кате
Day assistance from partner.
However, in the one over one) system, we do have a bid that: shows a much stronger hand than an original ault bid of one, and that is a bid of one no trump. This bid can be made with a bid dable four-card suit-or even, at times, with a five-card suit.
To-day's hand has a strong four- card major, but the hand should be opened with one no trump to inform partner that you have a fine hand-one in which perhap every suit is stopped and in addi- tion, that your hand contains ten- ace positions.
10
If South opens with one по trump, North will bid two trump, and South will then carry the contract to three no trump,
The Play
It happens that it is an unusual-
ly interesting hand to make three no trump.
West will open the three of spades. West's opening lead of the three spot marks him with four spades, therefore East has olly one spade. Before playing to this trick, declaror must atop and count his hand.
He is sure of making three spade tricks, one heart and one diamond-that is five. He needs four club tricks for a anfe game." He can easily cash his king and queen of clubs, but he must now be careful to create for himself an entry in dummy.
Would you win this first trick with the ten? If so, you will have lost your opportunity to make an
CABY game.
Your proper play
to win your trick with the ace of spades and immediately cuab your king and jack of clubs, and now lend the ten of spades.
If West refuses to win with the queen, go right up with the jack in dummy, cash the two good clubs, on which you will discard a small
