CONTRACT BRIDGE
By W. E. McKenney
Solution to Previous Contract Problem.
The 12th of this series of 18 playing problems by Henry P. Jaeger employs a símplo squeezo play.
It would appear that North, the declarer, should have no trouble in making his contract of six odd. However it is unfortunate that the spade suit will not break, os West hns control. Enst has control of the hearts and diamonds, whlie, be- tween East and West, they have control of the club suit.
But the declarer, during the play of the hand, can get a good count on the East land, and still make
his contract.

I do not like original no trump bide with a singleton. However, North-has-160-aces;-nine-cold tricks, and you can hardly blame him for wanting to tell his partner about all those high card tricks.
A foreing two bid would per- haps answer the purpose better and assure a slum contract. With the original bid of three no trump, it is just fortunate that South kept the bidding open. North's Jump to six no trump might be termed optimistic.
The Play Against a six no trump contrnet, East opens the four of diamonds. A club is discarded from dummy and North, the declarer, wins the trick with the queen. He now takes two rounds of hearts... When. West drops the Jack, it warns him that the heart suit will not break.
The ace and king of spades Are'
is good. If he lets go a heart, Hongkong Rangoon North will win both heart tricks. And if he lets go the jack of dia- monds, declarer's six of diamonds will be good.
Interest allowed on Current Acerunts.
In any case, the small slam con- tract will be made.
