He must. keep both diamonds or Y's diamonds will be good. He must, therefore, discard either the nine of spadesAor the nine of clubs. If hearts are trumps and Z is in the lead, how can Y-Z so play the hand that they can win all the tricks against any defense? Z should play the jack of clubs. A plays the deuce, Y should play the eight and B the four. Note that the play of the eight of clubs by Y is obli- gator In no other wa y can the problem be solved. Z should then lead the four of spades, trumping in Y's hand with the king of hearts. Y should now lead the ace of hearts.

B, of course, should have bid two diao monds because he only had a single stopEer in the spade suit but he was one of t ose players who thinks the only way to win games is by bidding no- trump. All passed and B's no-trump bid was defeated by one trick. If B had made the proper bid of two diamonds, Suppose the dealer bids a suit, your partner doubles and third hand passes, do you thoroughly understand what is expected of you? You will robably say: “Of course I do. I shoul bid my long suit or no-trump if I have a double stopper in the suit bid." That is correct in theory, but for some reason seems difficult for practical application. Time and again, you will see players bid one no-trump with only a single stopper in the suit bid, in preference to bidding their long suit. In the preceding article, a hand was given as an illustration of this principle and the rule was laid down: “Never bid no-trump a er your part~ ner has made an inform tory double unless you have a double stopper in the suit doubled." This principle should be and robably is enerally understood, but t e followin iand is an illustration of how players ail to follow it in prac- tice: Copyright 1926. by Hoyle.
