By W. E. McKenney

After a championship has been won, if you talk with the wla- ners you will generally find that, while they might be able to name a haud in the tournament which they would have played in a differ- ont manner if they had another! opportunity, It is soldom that a hand has been lost dus to care-i less1088.

Just beenuse your hand contains practically worthless cards you should not lose interest in the de fonce

The Bidding

Mr. Malowan was sitting in the! North. His partner in the South was dealer and opened the con- tracting with one club. West passed Mr. Malowan bil two clubs. East bid two spades, South three cluba, West went to three East spades. North passed and

bid four spades. North and South were vulnerable, therefore they could not consider taking a ancrifice.

· The Play

South opened the king of clubs and continued with the queen of clubs, which East' trumped. De- claror took two rounds of trump which picked up the outstanding trump, and then led four rounds of diamonds, winning the fourth diamond in his own hand. ·

The bidding had practically markod, South with the aco of hearts, therefore the declarer's on- ly chance to make his contract was to find South with only the ace and

ono heart or to induce him to make

a mistake. East, the declarer,

next played a small heart, South
