were 4-1. But to play for the former break was frightfully dangerous. To play against a 4-1 trump break gave at least an equal chance of success (better, considering West's double) and had this enormous advantage: if It went wrong, it would not go far

wrong.

Thus, after ruffing the second diamond and cashing the spade aco, declarer should have rattled off clubs. West would have been powerless to Lake more than two spade tricks. If he ruffed the third club low, dummy would overruff and declarer's three trumps would be ample protection against West's blank K-Q. If West rulfed the third club, high, dummy would discard its last diamond and, whatever West returned, declarer could control without difficulty.

The conclusion is, of course, that when there are two possible lines of play, either of which may work, declarer must adopt the one which if it goes wrong, will be the least

As will be noted, North's bidding costly. Was scarcely conservative, and South's redouble was highly ques- tlonable. The fact remains, how- ever, that no defence could have defeated the contract if South had adopted a line of play in keeping with his own redouble,

West opened the aco and another diamond. Declarer ruffed the latter and laid down the spade ace. Then, apparently: determined to risk every- Uing on a 3-2 break of trumps, he led another spade! West
