CONTRACT BRIDGE It is necessary to examine only a comparatively few hands from actual play to be impressed with the import- ance of counting playing tricks, and to observe how much this is neglected. The following hand is just one of many that could be used to illustrate this: S-None H-10 8 6 4 2 D-6 5 3 C-Q J 9 7 6 S-A 5 4 3 2 S-10 9 8 7 6 H-Q H-K D-10 2 Ws D-Q j 4 C-K 4 3 2 C-A 10 8 5 S-K Q J H-A J 7 5 3 D-A K 9 8 7 C-None East dealer. . North and South Vulnerable. The bidding:— East South West North Pass 1.1-I 15 4H 4S 6H Pass Pass Pass The only questionable bid is West's one spade overcall. His playing stren- gth is slightly weak, but he is in the favourable position of being not vul- nerable against vulnerable opponents. The three West players who entered the bidding eventually played four and five spades contracts doubled, and they divided the three highest East and West scores among them. North's jump to four hearts give a clear picture of his, hand, showing as it does strong distributional support but little honour strength._ His play- ing tricks are a minimum for this bid, but they are sufficient opposite a vul- nerable opening. After North has shown trump sup- port the playing strength of South's hand totals eight playing tricks, two in spades and three each in hearts and diamonds. His cards indicate danger that some of North's strength may be useless to him, as indeed was the case. Nevertheless it would be a very timid South who would not bid this slam—if he counted his own playing tricks and added to them those shown by his partner's jump raise. The play was quite easy and the one South player who bid the slant got a clear top score, which was his just reward. BE LGRAVE Junior Red Cross Social Held The Junior Red Cross of S. S. No. 8, E. Wawanosh, under •the leadership of the teacher, Miss Dorothy Wade, held a social in the schoolroom on Friday evening.
