don't become elated and decide: you're going to do all the bidding In the world. I've seen too many people who, just because they were dealt some quick tricks, got into too high a contract.
Let's take to-day's hand. There are plenty of aces and kings in the North and South hands, but it's ruther foolish to get into a six no long trump contract without a suit. To make six no trump you usually need something besides high cards. You need at least pac five-card suit.

The king of spades is chahed. Then the noe of club is played, fol- lowd by a small club, upon which East drops the jack, and the de- clarer's hopes rise. The trick is won with the king and another club. led, East winning with the queen. East has nothing but hearts left. so he returns a small heart, which
Were East to return the king of tearts, declarer would win the
