queen.
Ho returned a small spade and South, the declarer, won the trick with the ace. He already had Jost three clubs and know that, if the spade suit broke, he would not have to take the club finesse,! His only hope was not to lose a trump trick. Therefore, he played the ace of hearts,
winners.
The following were the Palace Hotel:-A. J. Osmund (Cap- tain), L A, Osmund, 31. 31. Silva, F. A. GIL, A. P. Peroira Jr., L. V. An- tonio, M. A. Beltrao, 8., M. Cruz, M. A. Baptista and A. Bower,

The careless East player would: play the ten of hearts, and South naturally would continue with the king of hearts and pick up the Reuter outstanding trump. But Mr. Ohrt realized that the declarer was up against a tough guess, und. so he false-carded and played his queen.
This ninde it look us though West held four hearts to the ten spot originally. Therefore, the declarer played a small heart, West played the six, and you can not blame the declarer for flness- ing the nine, trying to make his contract.
Of course, Mr. Ohrt won the trick with the ten of hearta, thus defeating the declarer's contract, | one trick.
Today's Contract Problem Bouth opened the contract- ing with one club, North vid hearts, South bid diamonds, and they finally arrived at s Boron diamond contract. Should East double, holding the following hand?
