CONTRACT BRIDGE
By W. E. McKenney
Solution to Previous Contract Problem
This is the fifth of a series of 18-playing, problems prepared by Henry P. Jaager,
Nothing difficult about to-day's hand, but it was really surprising the number of South players that actually missed par on this hand. All that the play requires is just a little thinking at the proper time. Don't be too anxious to grab off a trick--it might cost you a trick later on.
You know there is one trick that you can never lose the ace of trump. So, before taking it, ask yourself, "Is this the time to cash my ace? Can I be end-played if I don't take it now-or, if I hold off, can I put the declarer into an em barrassing position?"
The Bidding
With East making an original Oct. 22 bld of one spade, West's raian to

The Play
South's opening load is the three of diamonds.. North wing with the king, returns the ace, and now knows that both declarer and South are out of diamonds. He loads the ten of diamonds.
East goes in with the queen of spades, hoping that the nec and jack of spades are spilt, so that if North holds the ace, the play of the queen would prevent the jack, from making.
-What should South do? Over- trump that trick with the ace of spades? If he does, he will lose par on the hand, because par is to
