FAMOUS THEATRE DESTROYED-A tangle of rubblo is all that remains of one of Mos- cow's finest theatres, the Vakhtangov, after an air raid. Many of Soviet Russia's younger revolutionary dramatists had their first plays produced ́hore, The Moscow authorities point out that the Vakhtangov is far away from military objectives, such as industrial plants or munitions factorios.

conservative, and South's redouble was highly ques- tionable. 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 ace and another diamond. Declarer ruffed the latter and laid down the spade ace. Then, apparently determined to risk every- thing on a 3-2 break of trumps, he led another spade! West down with the spade queen and cash- SWOODed ed the king, drawing dummy's last trump and leaving declarer.with only one trump. A third diamond then. was played and declarer's state was

Declarer had had two lines of play, one of them correct if the trumps were divided 3-2, the other if they 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 Chetter, considering West's double) and hat this enormous advantage: if it went wrong, it would not go far wrong.

Thus, after ruffing the second diamond and cashing the spade ace, declarer should have rattled off clubs. West would have been powerless to take more than two spade tricka, It 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 Weat ruffed the third club high, dummy, would discard its last dlomond and, whatever West returned, declaren could control without dimeulty.

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