The Jack of spades is still in dummy to draw East's spade ten —and to permit South to discard his own los. ing glob. The good break in diamonds completes the rout of the opponents, giving the declarer twelve tricks. This method of handling the tromp suit is called dummy reversal, and occasionally it is the only way to bring home a contract or an extra trick.

BREWERS SINCE MU Wednesday, December 15, 1948 PAGE THREE THE WINGHAM ADVANCE-TIMES The Council met in the Clerk's Office, Gorrie, on December 4th, 1948, according to adjournment, the Reeve • John Winter in the chair. All mem- bers present. The minutes of the last regular meeting and special meeting were read and on motion of McCal- lum and Zurbrigg were adopted as read. Cdrried. Moved by Zurbrigg and Gowdy that James Walkom be appointed to the Committee of Memorial Park, Ford- wich, as member appointed by Coun- cil .and By-Law No. 10, of the Town- ship of Howick for the year 1948, as read the third time be finally passed.

Out of ten tables there were three contracts in no trump and they got the poor scores they deserved. How- ever, the more interesting fact about the hand is tliat six odd can be made in spades, though just two declarers accomplished this. Had West opened a small club South could have made six without 'ef- fort but no doubt the opening lead was invariably the king of hearts. In duplicate bridge every possible trick is important and South must study the hand carefully with that in mind. After ruffing the second heart lead he should play the king of spades (the queen might be singleton), then lead a small spade, overtaking the queen with the ace. Next, he should , ruff another heart, lead 'back to the ace of clubs and then ruff dummy's last heart with his own last trump. Al- though the success of this play de- Kenneth Wright be appointed as Poll Clerk to replace Albert Dustow at P. D.
