London Bankers: Lloyds Burch, Ltd,. The Bank of England & Mútlarid Dank, Ltd. Most players now would make Foreles Exchange and Banking business of the mistake of leading a club to-every description transacted. ward dummy's king, hoping thereby to find the ace of clubs in the West hand and make six odd. You are assured of your contract even though you were to lose two club tricks-and you are pretty sure of being able to get an end play or a six squeeze play to make your odd.
-Д
The proper play 16 to lend small heart,..win in dummy with the king, return a heart, and then lay down five straight heart tricks, getting yourself down to the eight and four of clubs and the four of spades,
►
Tri the meantime, dummy is down to the king of clubs and the ten and six of spades. West is down to the nce of diamonds and the jack and seven of clubs.
Eust, however, becomes squeezed. He can let go the nine of clubs and three diamonds, but on the fifth
heart he has to let go his queen of clube, beenuse, if he drops the spade, both spades. In dummy will be good.
Now ni declarer has to do is to lead a club, throw East in with the ace, and he is forced to lead from his seven and, five of spades, into
