CONTRACT BRIDGE

By W. E. McKenney

I have recently written to A number of the country's lending contract players asking them for an interesting hand, so I want to give you to-day the hand which Wha sent to me by Mr. Robert | W. Halpin of Chicago, a past- president of the American. Bridge League,

Mr. Halpin was captain of the team which represented the Auc- tion Bridge Club of Chicago, which club presented the trophy for national open contract teams- of-four. Mr. Halpin and his teammates proceeded to win this' trophy the first year it was put into play-1929. Mr. Halpin says that the mistake made by a great many contract players is in not!) providing for a bad trump dis-j

tribution. In the following hand

the carelses declarer would try to make the band by simply setting

up the club sult by ruffing one.

club-and then would complain because of a bad break.

The Bidding

South bid one club, West passed and North made a one over one

force of one spade. East passed, and South went to two clubs.) North then bid two diamonds,) Sunth bid two hearts, and North jumped to six hearts.

The Piny

West'a opening lead was the ten of diamonds, the queen was played from dummy and when East play- ed the ace, South was forced to ruff with the seven of hearts.

Mr. Halpin, figuring that he might get a bad split in trump. now led the three of spades and took the finesse, East winning with the king. East returned the seven of spades which Mr. Halpin won in dummy with the

ace.

He then led the four of dia- "monde "from"dummy and trumped with the eight of hearts. He cashed. his ace and jack of hearts and then led a small club, winning in dummy with the king.

The king and queen of hearts were played from dummy, Mr. Hal- pin discarding two clubs from his own hand. He led the king of dia- monds and discarded his other losing club:

He returned to his own hand by lending a spade and winning with the jack, and then played his aco and queen of clubs for the last two tricks, successfully making his small slam contract,
