Solution to Previous Contract Problem

While it generally pays to ruff losing cards, there are times when this play must be avoided. I be lleve the following hand, which was played in the recent Pennsylvania State Championship Tournament, to be a very good example of this play.

The Bidding

South and West passed, North opening the contract with one club. South bid one heart. West bid two diamonds. North passed, "East passed and South bid two spades.

The Play

The opening lead was the king of diamonds. West next led a small heart which was won in the dum- my with the eight. The queen of clubs was returned and when East put on the king, South trumped with the nine of hearts;

Now, Instead of ruffing a diu-| mond the declarer led the ten of trump and.won in dummy with the king. He next played the jack of clubs and discarded the eight of diamonds. West won with the aco and cashed his ace of diamonds. He led another diamond which de- clarer won with the queen.

Els only chance to make the con- tract was to find the hearts divided so he swung the ace and dropped the queen and seven. Now all ho had to do was to play the ace of spades, lead a small spade to dum
