cause of mishandling of the trump situation.
The king of clubs was opened and Mr. Moen trumped with the threa of hearts. He led the sce of hearts to see what the trump situation was. He now planned the play of the hand so that, even though the jack and seven of hearts were in one hand, he could make his contract.'
Mr. Hoen realized that he needed two small hearts to ruff dummy's clubs and would need the queen of hearts to pick up the outstand- ing trump. His next play was the king of hearts. He could not lead any more trump, cince he must ruff the two clubs, so he played the ace of spades, following with small spade, which was ruffed in dummy with the ten of hearts.
A small club was returned and
trumped with the five of hearts. A smell diamond was played and won with dummy's jack. The last club was played and trumped with the eight of hearts.
Declarer then led the nine_of. diamonds, won in dummy with the nce, led the queen of hearts and picked up the last trump, discard- All spade from his own ing

Now all he had to do was to lead the king of diamonds and pick up the outstanding diamonds. The two losing spades were discarded on the two rond d'amonds.
Today's Contract Problem
North is playing the fol- lowing hand at four spades. East open tho six of hearts and West returns a club, How should North proceed with the game to make contract?
