CONTRACT BRIDGE
By W. E. McKenney
Jière in the first of a scrica of six articles in which William E. McKenney explains some of the outstanding hands played by Aaron Frank, of Cleveland, one of the foremost contract players in America,
In the last two important tourna- menta of the American Bridge Lengue, the name of Aaron Frank has played a prominent part. He was on the team that won the knockout team championship at: Asbury Park. At the recent Na- tional Masters' Tournament, he and his teammates gave the famous Jacoby, furnaline, Schenken, Gott- lieb, and Frey combinaion à real battle. Their loss can, however, be attributed to lack of experience,
Frank is acknowledged one of the greatest card players in the country and I predict many championship tilea for him within the next few yeara.
I have asked him to tell my read- ers his reasoning on some of his Important tournament hands, and Wed, 9th Jan. at 10 a.m.80 to-day I am pleased to present the first of a series of nix hande Wed. 29th Jan,

Frank sat in the North and his regular partner, Jeff Glick, who has played with him in all the champ- ionship victories, was sitting in the South.
Glick and Frank use the one-over. one, except that they do not believe in opening the bidding with a four- card major suit. If they have a hand strong enough for an original bid and it contains only a four-card major, they prefer to open the bidding with an artificial one club
bid.
Now, on the second round of bid- dink, when one shows hla mujor the partner knows it is four. carder.
In explaining to-day's hand, Frank told me that he did not be Reve championships were won by. spectacular plays. However, good player should be on the look- out for simple end plays,
He says most players take too many finesses. If they fail, they blame their loss on hard luck, Many fisesses can be avoided by such play as he gives in to-day's hand..
The Play
The king of clubs was opened, followed by the noe, which Frank trumped with the eight of dia- monds. Three rounds of diamonds were taken and a spade led to dummy's king. Dummy's last club was played, and trumped.
