THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH. THURSDAY,

CONTRACT BRIDGE

By W. E. McKenney

Some hands begulla us by their simplicity, If. na North In' aue- tlon, you held the hand shown hare, you would probably agree with the writer in bidding one diamond. With East and South passing, West should obtain the contract at one na trump. The play of the hand le lutarenting and presents unusual opportunity for brilliancy on the part of the declarer.

North should open the king of damonda Instend of the five. The Henerally accepted principle of lead- ing against a no trump is to open the fourth highest of your longest However, and strongest suit.
