As you know, it takes fower tricks to make game at no trump. than at a oult, therefore it natur- ally follows that it should bo more difficult to make a game ati no trump than it is at 'ault- and it is, due to the fact that you cannot establish a sido sult by ruf- fing one or more of the low cards in that sult. However, ⚫ quite often no trump is the only spot at which game can be made.
Many games are lost at fo trump due to the lack of planning on the part of the declarer. It is quite true that the natural pro- cedure when playing a hand at no trump is to start in at once to catablish your longest auft and the one that can be most quickly established. But there are ceptions to this rule, so

Weat should pass the one trump, as he has a good suit with which to open an attack. North would respond with two diamonds. South should bid two no trump and North will carry the contract to three no trump.
The Play
West's opening lead is the queen of spades, which the declarer wina) with the ace. Before playing to the next trick, the declarer must carefully study the hand.
It looks as if the natural play in to start to set the diamond zuit, but let us see what may happen if we do this. If the king of dia- monds lies wrong a spade will be returned by East, and even though the declarer lays off once, his king will be knocked out on the second round.
Now declarer will have made two spade tricks, he can make four diamond tricks and two heart tricks, but he still needs a club trick to go game. Aa Roon! NIPPON YUSEN KAISHA. as he leads club, West will get
in and run off his three (privato exchanges to all Depts.)
good spades and the declarer will have lost three spades, a club and a diamond.

Realizing this, the declarer should immediately knock out the opponent's ace of clubs by start- ing the club suit.
When West wins, he will return aapade. The declarer should lay off once and should win the sec ond spade lend with his king.
Now, when he finds that the king of diamonds lies wrong. East will not have a spade to return to his partner, and by properly planning the hand, the declarer will have made his contract of three no trump.
