painstaking job which often requires another drawing when the pen slips or aruter binds vine dunne is the assembly supervisor who must see the various parts i fit into place general foreman robert

of all say that i do not approve of the bidding norths opener is fine but south does not have enough points to reply at the two lev el south should reply one no trump then when north made an invitational but non forcing jump south having overbid already should pass but- i would not be writing about this hand in that case two of our south players tried this hand at three no trump only one was success ful west who did not want to lead spades into norths twice hid suit led a low heart the jack from dummy covered by basts queen east returned the heart ten won by wests aoe this of course was a mis take on wests part with no sure entry west must allow de clarer to win the second heart in order to retain the ace of hearts as an entry west led a third heart to clear the suit if dummy had had two diamonds declarer would not have a problem but as it was he needed two en tries one to set up diamonds and one to take his tricks the ace of diamonds is taken and a law club is led it doesnt matter if east splits his club honors or not south can make two entries in clubs suppose east plays the club jack declarer wins with the king and plays the king of diamonds when the queen does not show up declarer con tinues diamonds till east wins east has no good exit a spade gives declarer a marked finesse and a club lets declarer in with the nine as a lesser of two evils east should lead a spade when a low club is led from dummy east can score the queen for the fourth de fensive trick declarer ishome free with two spade tricks plus one in hearts four in diamonds and at least two in clubs and all this because the lowly nine of clubs was an entry last weeks winners at the acton bridge club were first cam sinclair and bob dickson second mrs penny bristow and mrs betty ashley third
