wonderful partner-but you are the dealer, you bid a heart, and everybody passes. Your fine part- ner becomes the dummy. You! make a grand slam. There is not much thrill in that you simply! had all the cards.

In contract, however. you and your partner would have had to show some real partnership bid- ding to arrive at that alam con- tract.

The American Whist League, in Its recent All-American tourna ment In Chicago, conducted an auction team-of-four event which was won by Sir Derrick J. Wern- her of Deal, N.

To-day's is one of tho hands played in this match.

If Mrs. Rosenfeld's partner had trumped with the six of hearts, East would have over-ruffed with

Today's Contract Problem
