McKENNEY ON BRIDGE
Western Expert Plays a Squeeze To Score Little Slam in
_No Trump
This is the 12th of a series of hands played by the new national
champions at the Pittsburgh, Pa., tournament.
By \VM. E. McKENNEY
(America’s Card Authority)
Albert Weiss’ victory in the nat
ional open pair championship was
not a surprise to me. I have rated
Weiss as one of the greatest players
in the country. He has participated
little in competition with the East
erners, but his record in Chicago is
.astounding. He won the All-Ameri
can open pair championship in 1937
and 1938, and both the All-Ameri
can open team-of-four and masters
individual championships in 1933 and
1939, as well as the Central States
team-of-four title in 1938.
I predict that if it is possible for
Mr. Weiss to participate in some of
the eastern contests this year, more
than one crown will be carried to
Chicagr. In today's hand, only he
and his partner, Walter Jacobs of
Chicago, bid and made six no trump.
Weiss Won the opening lead with
the club ace and led the diamonds
from the top down, as he could not
spare the spade king for entry to
take .a finesse. The diamond queen
fortunately dropped. After six dia
monds, dummy was left with three
spades and three hearts, South with
three spades and three hearts.
As North had not discarded a
heart, declarer figured his only
chance was a possible squeeze,
which would operate if the hand
with the spade stopper also held the
king and queen of hearts. However,
the count w-as wrong for a squeeze.
To rectify it, he made the brilliant
lead of the club six, voluntarily
giving up a trick.
North wop and returned the spade
queen. When West won with the
ace and cashed the clu king, South
was indeed squeezed in the majoi
suits.
NEXT: Pulling a game from the
fire.

The Lydia Yates circle will meet
