the contract two tricks.

With this deduction of the hand, it would not do any good to return a' heart, so Mr. Frank decided to shift to a spade. Which spade would you lead, a small one? If so, the contract would be made, as the declarer would duck and let North win with the queen. This then would leave the declarer with the nee-jack, tenace position.

Mr. Frank reasoned that, i West held the ace and queen of spades, then the contract could not be defeated. But if West's hold- ing was the net, jack and one | spade, the contract could be de

feated by the lead of the ten spot, which he proceeded to play."

West played the jack, North won with the queen, returned a spade and now South's, apnde suit was established and he still had the ace of diamonds for # re-entry.
