the ace. East then fed the queen of spades, which. dummy won with the king.

Before making. the next play. let's take inventory. Declarer has lost a club. If the trumps break, be then has only two diamond lonera. But auppose the trumps don't break-he would have a trump loser and, if West holds the four hearts, two diamond lasers.

Declarer sees that the danger of the hand Hes in the fact that West might get in with the fourth heart. He plays the ace of hearts from dummy and, when the nine drops from the East hand, he is warned that he may find bad distribution in trump. The six of hearts le played next, West follows with the four nail, if declarer takes this with the king, his contract is de fented, because West will get in with the jack of hearts and lead a diamond, and declarer will then have two diamond losers,

Declarer must make a safety play at this point and play a low heart. allowing East to win the trick with the ten. East at this point returns apade, which declarer ruffs with the woven of hearts. He picks up the two remaining trumps and then leads the king of clubs. The drop of the sight of clubs by West bad marked him with only two clubs,

Now the declarer gets into dum- my by playing the nine of clubs and overtaking with the ten, after; which he discards the two diamonds on the two remaining clubs.

Today's Contract Problem

This is the first of a series

at mix outstanding Contract bands played by Aaron Frank of Cleveland, a sensation In championship bridge. North has the contract Aro dia- monds. East opens the king of clubs, and continues with another club. How can do clarer make his contract? 4Q84
