To this end it may be necessary to allow the declarer to win a. trick that you could have taken. The following band if of a type on which the defence often fails.

South's return is the nine and North's play on this trick determines the fate of the hand. If -Borth had a sure entry in one of the other suits, it would be wise for him to come up with the ace of hearts and continue .with another heart in order to take out West's queen. From his viewpoint West might have the three as well as the queen, in which event he would need to. knock out the queen before he had to give up his entry in the other suit. That however, is not 'the situation in this case. The • ace of clubs in the dummy spoils his club king, and the only hope of setting the contract—as far,, as North's hand is concerned— is'that his partner still has the three of hearts plus an entry in some other suit. Consequently his play to the second trick is the four of hearts. When South nds h gets ewitthe ae of leadewillreturn the threecof hearts, nand thereby the defenders wilt win four tricks it hearts in, addition to the ace of diamonds. OBITUARY Robert R.
