Bridge players and chess players Hamburg have argued for a long time as to which is the more scientific game. As there are more bridge players than chess players, I am inclined to give the decision to the game of bridge.
There are several chess tactics that can be well applied to bridge. Chess players would not hesitate to give up a pawn to secure vantageous position which several

moves later might gain a rook or a knight. So it is in bridge. It often pays to give up a trick to galn a good position or a trick or two later on.
When
East overcails
North's
one heart response with one spade,
South does not have to crowd the The ten of spades was trumped in bidding. Two hearts is sufficient dummy with the ace of hearts. and if North has any additional The declarer spread his hand, values, he will show them. The are conceding the queen of hearts, of spades and being void in clubs of making five odd. course are rebid values.
To-day's hand was played In the Masonic club rooms at Quincy, Ill., by John H. D. Lange Bartel. This is quite a popular bridge club and generally a hundred or more contract fans will be found enjoy- ing America's leading pastime.
The Play
East's opening lead was the king of spades, which Lauge Bartel won with the ace. In planning the play, the declarer decided it was useless of to try to pick up the queen hearts by fincase. If it lost, he might easily lose two diamonds and one or two spades. It looked as if the better plan would be to ruff out of the spades, concede the queen hearts and two diamonds,
The declarer returned the three of spades and ruffed in dummy with the seven of hearts. The de- claror could raft two clubs and East's ace would fall, establishing the king and queen, but ho still would lose three tricks. The de- clarer reasoned that by giving the opponents a trick immediately he could save a trick, so he returned the king of elubs and refused to trump, discarding one of the losing diamonds..
East won the trick with the nec and returned the king of diamonds, which was won in the dummy with the aco of diamonda. The queen of clubs was then played and a din- mond discarded from declnrer's band.
.
An East was marked with thei queen of diamonds, the declarer played n small diamond from dummy and ruffed with the two of hearts. A apade was returned and ruffed with the king of hearts. Another diamond was played and ruffed with the four of hearta.
Today's Contract Problein Bouth holds the contract at West leads three no trump.
What the queen of clubs. procedure will give Bouth the best chance to make his con- tract?
