Solution to Previous Contract Problem
Do you remember, in the days of auction, that we were afraid of n four-car suit, due to the fact that we never really know whether we had a proper fit with our part- ner, or whether it was the proper declaration?
Take. for example, to-day's hand. South has a perfect four! card suit bid in apades, and his partner has normal support. However, North also has a five- card suit, and South has a perfect fit there.

As a result, in auction, we might find ourselves playing the hand at hearts, instead of spades. Even to-day at contract, some players will make the mistake to getting into the wrong declaration.
When your partner opens with a four-card suit, and you belleve you have all the cards necesunry to fil in that suit, although you have a five-card major of your own, don't be too sure that the hand must be
played in your major. Remember that contract is a partnership game, and it is up to you and your partner to try to arrive at the
oper contract.
The Bidding
Over West's donble. North's bid of two hearts la highly construc- tive. I think East's. bid of three diamonds rather optimistic. South shows a fit in his partner's auft by a bid of three hearts. ~
North's bid of three spades is then made to show partner a fit in the original spade suit. This is all the information that South поедя. If his partner holds four hearta and four spades, undoubte edly the same tricks will be made in either suit..
However, it is safer to have the diamond suit led up to rather than through. While North happened to hold five hearts, the fifth heart can be used for a valuable discard, as you will see in the play.
The Play
However, against a four-spade contract, West with cash his king and queen of clubs, and will now probably shift to a heart, which will be won in dummy with the king. Now the spade suit is start-
