CONTRACT BRIDGE

By W. E. McKenney

Solution to Previous Contract Problem

Fancy plays in bridge are not hard to make if you almply are playing for an extra trick. If you have your contract mado; you can try a little experimenting for the extra trick. Idwaver, when you have to make a squeeze play. or an elimination or end play to make your contract, you generally will find the going very tough,

which

This was the altuntion confronted Mrs. Marjorie Irvine of Philadelphia, when she was_com- peting in the recent eastern Penn- sylvania tournament at Reading. fier contract was for game and she hnd four apparent losers, one of which had to be eliminated for her to make her contract.

The Play

The bidding was normal. East's opening lead was the king of dia- monds, won in dummy, with the Mrs. Irvine then took two rounds of trump, which set up East's queen. A small club vas led and won in dummy with the ace and a club returned, Wost winning with the queen.

West returned a diamond which Mrs. Irvine trùmped and led a club, which she trumped in dummy with the dight of hearts.

A diamond was led from dunimy and trumped with the five of hearts. Another club then was led, on which East discarded the queen- of diamonds. Mrs. Irvine trumped in dummy with the ten of hearts and returned a diamond, trump- ing In her own hand with the seven of hearts.

East was helpless-if he trumped. with the queen of hearts, all he could do was to win his ace of spades. But if he refused to trump and discarded a spado, all Mri. Irvine had to do was to lead spade toward.dummy's queen, and. her contract was made,

Today's Contract Problem
