Solution to Previous Contract Problem

I often have said- and hero ropent that you must trike In- ventory of your hand before care- Ieasly playing a curd. Don't waste re-entries-they may prove Tourist Class valuable toward the end of the

hand.

Today's hand is not a difficult U.S.$240.00

problem, but one that requires U.S.$196.00 careful attention to every trick.

Wast will return his partner's club which North will win with the ace and then lend the five of spades, winning in dummy with the seven. Ho now is ready to Luke the heart finesse. A small heart is played and the jack Ancased. It holds, and game is madc.

If the heart finesse had failed, the declarer would have lost his hand as safely as possible, con- contract. However, ho played the serving his diamond atopper and not taking the heart incase until the end.

Today's Contract Problem Bouth is playing the hand at three no trump. West opens the three of hearts. How should Bouth play the hand?

South is confronted with problem over his partner's buc spade bid. It is a question wheth- er to support the spades or to bld no trump, because of the Iwo kings. lowever, due to the fact that North has opened with spade, showing that he has a real hand, South's kings perhaps are in on danger.
