Declarer was seated in the South, and his side was not vul- nerable. East and West vulnerable. He opened the con- tracting with, one apade.

were

West could not overcall with two hearts, being vulnerable, and a suit overall should not be made | with a four-card suit. West, how

ever, elected to overcall with one no trump. North bid two hearts. East passed and South bid three spades." His partner carried the contract to four.

The Play

West had a difeult opening. However, he selected the king of: hearts and South won the trick in dummy with the ace. He-return- ed the three of spades and won' the trick in his own hand with the

acc.

He has six tremp in his own hand and three in dummy. With nine trump in sight, many players believe it is wise to depend upon the drop of any missing high. trump. In this case, however, East's ten should be a warning. With two missing honours, would prefer to play for one in each hand.

South correctly reasoned that he could not take, the chance of trying to pick up the queen of spades, even if East held it. His. next play was the nine of hearts. which West won with the queen, but West was now practically, helpless,

To lead a heart would give the declarer three discardo. To lead a club would make both of the de- clarer's clubs good.

All That West could do was to cash his ace of diamonds, and now it was immaterial what suit he led, excepting trump, which would cost West a trick. But South had successfully made his contract of four spades.

Discovering and creating a hid- den entry in dummy is one of the pretty plays in bridge.

MOTOR ACCIDENT.

MR. MORRIS', HELP. TO THREE INJURED

young Chinese woman, a teacher of the Yeung Chung Girls' School of Caine Road, was fatally injured and her two young com- panions, a boy and a girl, received serious injuries as the result of a disastrous motor mishap, while they were procceding along Jubilee Road at Aberdeen Saturday morning.

The boy, named Kwok Hung-ki driving a private motor and as he received serious injuries after the accident it is not quite clear how his car happened to dash over the road and fall into a hollow. One of the girl passengers, Yeung Wei-lai, was thrown several feet out of the car, while the other girl passenger, her younger sister, was also badly hurt. The car was badly smashed:

Timely Assistance.

It is believed that the accident occurred between 11 and 11.30 a.m. Sometime after the mishap Mr. A. Morris, the Commissioner of the St. John's Ambulance Brigade, happened to pass in his own car. He immediately went to the assistance of the three in- jured, all of whom were in dio- tressing nlight and bleeding,

L

It was then seen that one of the voung ladies was in grave condi- tion and after getting all three linto his car Mr. Morris drove them To the Government Civil Wosnital where Yeung Weflai died at six n'clock on Saturday afternoon. Enquiries at the Government Civil Hospital last night elicited the fact that the other two patients are progressing well and are In no danger.
