CONTRACT BRIDGE
By W. E. McKenney
between Progressive bidding partners in contract should be done with a donite aim--that is, to try to find the fit of the hand.
Generally it does not pay to play a hand at no trump when either of the two hands has a vold sult, but If the bidding Indicates that part ner has the missing suit well stopped, and you feel that the tricks necessary for game can be won in the side sults, then you may allow the hand to be played at no trump,
The following unusually Interest- ing hand was played in the recent Ohio Stato Individual Champion- ship tournament of the American Bridge League. Two pairs receiv ed very nice scores on the board- one pair making four no trump and another palr making four hearts doubled.
The Bidding

East won with the jack and le the queen of clubs. When North refused to win, Enst laid down his queen of spades and then shifted to the jack of chils. North now made the mistake of winning the second club, which made all the rest of the tricks good for the de clarer.
At the other table West felt that his partner ought to have a fit for one of the majors and so, instead of letting the hand be played at three no trump, he went to four hearts, which South made the mis- take of doubling.
The three of spades was opened and won by dummy's jack, and the
