CONTRACT BRIDGE
By W. E. McKenney
Solution to Previous Contract
Problem
Just because you have a void sult in one hand with trump, it doesn't necessarily mean that it is always advisable to first rúff your losing cards at the first opportun- ity. It often pays to sacrifice one trick to win two or more;luter on.
An example of this play is given in to-day's hand, which was played in the national women's contract team-of-four championship event at Cincinnati recently.
The Bidding
Over North's weak third hand diamond bld, it is better for East, who is vulnerable, to double than to overcall with one heart.

partner bide hearts, East can give him another chance on the hand, while if partner bida spades, East la satisfied to permit him to play it at that suit.
West's bid of one heart is pro- per, as, due to the fact that part- ner has made a negative double, his suit may be spades, in which case his hand is of little help. East gives his partner a chanco on the hand by showing a fit with the bid of two hearts. West now Lakes the strain off the hand by going to four.
The Play
North's opening lead is the queen of diamonds. At first glance it looks as though the natural thing to do is to trump the diamond-West has four din- monds and all four can be trump- ed in dummy. But if this dia- mond is trumped, the declarer can make only four odd, as he will have to lose two clubs and a spade.
The correct way to play the hand is not to trump the diamond, but to discard the three of clubs from dummy. Now South is forc to go in with his ace of dia monds,
South will cash his ace of spades and lead another spade, which West can ruff. Now one of dummy's losing clubs can be dis- carded on the king of clubs, the nce takes care of dummy's other club. und five odd are made.
Today's Contract Problem
With the bid at five dia- monds, how can East play the following hand to make sure of his contract?
