CONTRACT

By EASLEY BLACKWOOD
On* case where you need to
postpone pulling all of the op
ponents’ trumps is where the
trump suit oilers the only entry
to an established suit in dummy.
Today s hand is a simple illus
tration of that situation.

Mr. Masters opened the king
of rttitmnndK and one of dummy's
entries went out like a light.
Mrs. Keen won the trick with
the ace on the board. She saw
that she had two losers in dia
monds, one in clubs and one in
hearts.
In fact, she had three bad
hearts unless they could either
be ruffed in dummy or discarded
on dummy's club suit. Well,
ruffing them in dummy was out
because the second round of
hearts would have to be lost
before any ruffing could w done.
What about the club suit then?
There were enough clubs on the
board to offer a parking place
for all three hearts, provided the
play was timed correctly.
Mrs. Keen cashed just the ace
and king of spades, leaving the
eight spot in Mr. Masters’ hand
and the-ten on the board. Then
she led her singleton club.
Mr. Masters went right up
with the ace. It would have
done him no good to duck as
Mrs. Keen could have continued
clubs, throwing losing diamends
from her hand until the ace was
played.
Mr. Masters cashed his queen
and jack of diamonds and fol
lowed with his last diamond.
Mrs. Keen ruffled and, of course,
she was careful to ruff the jack
of spades, retaining the deuce
to reach the Board with the ten.
She discarded her three low;
hearts on dummy’s clubs.
If she had picked up all of the j
opposing trumps beginning at;
trick two she would have had
no play for her contract unless
the defense went completely
haywire.
