his contract would have been de- Tented. I thought the bidding on the hand rather interesting when the band was played.

The Bidding

East has a close decision to make between doubling the one diamond or bidding a spade. Personally, I would prefer the double. With that hand you are certainly willing to play it at two spades,

When South bid two clubs, West's bit of two diamonds was a for elle bid showing support spades. On the next round, when West forced in clubs, he was mak ing a direct slam try.

East showed control of the heart suit with a' bid of four hearts. While I don't believe In misuse of ace-showing bids, there are times. when an nec-showing bid of this kind is valuable. That was all the Information that West needed to jump to six spades.

The Play

the

South's opening lead was king of clubs, declarer won with the ace in dumray and discarded a losing heart.The hand will cross- ruff right out for ten tricks. All the declarer needs to lose is n 4th Class heurt.

If spade had been opened, of course the declarer would then have to lead up to the queen of hearts to develop a trick to make his contract. He would then use eight of his trump for .cross- rong.

Today's Contract Problem South plays the contract at eix no trump. West opens the douce of spades. South wins and starls the beart suit. Should Fast win the Arst or socond heart trick? And if not, whyt
