Contract is A game of large penalties and you should not sub- ject yourself to them by putting in so-called lend-directing bids.) Those are auction tactles and they will not work in contract.

Another thing-the opponents' 'bids can usually help you. They tell you in which suit you are apt to lose your tricks. They also let you know whether you can count on a king for a aure trick.

To-day's hand was given to me by Stanley Schwartz, a Columbus attorney, whose chief hobby is bridge.. Schwartz palya a great deal of duplicate bridge and de- veloped an interesting squeeze in the following hand.

The Play

West's opening lead was the king of diamonds. He then shifted to a trump and East won with the ace, returning a trump which Schwartz, in the South,

Now the queen and seven of hearts were good for the last two tricks, giving him three-odd dou-an bled, with an extra trick.

Today's Contract Problem

South in playing the con• tract at three no trump. West opens a liart in response to his partner's hoart bid, and when he gets in with the ace of clubs, he leads another heart. Now can you mako three no trump? It's not so easy, but it's interesting.
