hearts, West should lose no time in getting to six hearts.

Again we find an opponent mak Ing the mistake of doubling simply because he holds five trump. The only change West has to defeat the hand is to take a heart trick and the queen of clubs.

I often have sald-and again re- peat-never double a slam con- |tract, unless you have two positive ways of setting the contract.

Otherwise, your double may dis- clone just the Information the declarer needs.

The Play

West's opening lead was the jack of spades, which South, de- clarer, won with the ace. He now played a heart to dummy's queen and found East out of hearts, East discarding small spade. This left West with sure heart trick.

Д

Of course, if the club finesse will work, the contract can be made. However, the opening lend of the lack of spades looks like a doubleton.

West's double should mark him for at least the queen of clubs, no the declarer decided that it would be hopeless to try for the club finesse, and that it would be better to try to find West with simply a doubleton spade.

The spade was returned and won in, dummy with the king, Threo more rounds of hearts were taken, a spade being discarded from dummy.

Declarer then led a diamond to dummy's ace and returned a dia-| mond, cashing the king and then the queen of diamonds, lo lod his last heart, throwing West in the lead, and as West had nothing but clubs remaining, howanj forced to lead into declarer's,len.
