THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH. TUESDAY,

CONTRACT BRIDGE

By W. E. McKenney

Solution to Previous Contract Problem

Just because you have a void suit in one hand with trump, It doosn't necessarily mean that it is always advisable to first ruff your losing cards at the first opportun- ity. It often pays to sacrifice one trick to win two or more later 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 bid, it is better for East, who is vulnerable, to double than to overcall with one heart.

partner bids hearts, East can give him another chance on the hand, while if partner bids 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 apades, in which care his hand is of little help East gives his partner a chance on the hand by showing a fit with the bid of two hearts. Weat now takes 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 spado.

The correct way to play the hand is not to trump the diamond, but to discard the three of cluba from dummy, Now South is forc- ed to go in with hla ace of din- monda.

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 ace takes care of dummy's other club, and five odd are made.

Today's Contract Problem

With the bid at five dia mobüs, how can East play the following hand to make sure of his contract?
