Solution to Previous Contract.

Problem

The following hand is a good in- dication of the championship play that often is called upon to fulfil In dangorous contract.

In a rubber bridge game, neither alde vulnerable, Mrs. Green Fon- loy, Jr., of Cincinnati, received the hand with the 150 nece. Hero's how she bld and played it.

The Bidding

South West North East Pasa Pass i no trump 2 spades Double L'ass Pass 3 hearts Разз

Pass 3 no trump Pass South's double of two spades shows that is the suit with which he would have responded if Dast had not bid it before him. Mrs. Fanley's bid of three no trump was rather optimistic,

The Play

East opened the king of hourta and continued hearts,, North refus- ing to win until the third, round. Two small spades were discarded from dummy.

A small club was won in dummy with the king and a club returned, in the hope of breaking the club auit. But East showed out, dia- carding a spade,

Declaror won the trick with the ace. A small diamond was led and won in dummy with the queen and the king of diamonds returned. Enst dropped the jack. Declarer then led the queen of clubs and East let ko another spade.

East practically was now mark- ed with the king and xx of spades
