THE EVENING STAR
Washington, D. C.
TUESDAY, DECEMBER 28, IBM
CONTRACT
BRIDGE
By EASLEY BLACKWOOD
After Mr. Champion put in his
one-spade overall, the right
technical bid for Mr. Dale was
two hearts.
East dealer.
East-West vulnerable.

The bidding:
East South West North
Pass Pass Pass 1
1 * 2* 2* 3*

All pass
But Mr. Abel still was not play
ing his best game, so Mr. Dale
thought he had better see what
the chances were for him to play
the hand himsel. Hence his two
club bid.
You are entitled to raise your
eyebrows at Mr. Abel’s decision
to bid four clubs. For all he
knew he might push his op
ponents into a game contract
they could make. But the bid
turned out well, as Mr. Cham
pion could have made Just three
spades.
When Mrs. Keen won the first
two tricks with the ace and
king of spades, Mr. Dale felt sure
that both the king of hearts and
the king of diamonds were on
his right.
At trick three Mrs. Keen
shifted to the nine of diamonds
The 10 was played from dummy
and Mr. Dale was not surprised
when Mr. Champion won with
the jack.
The five of clubs was returned
and Mr. Dale pulled three rounds
of trumps, ending in dummy
Then he led the seven of hearts
towards his jack. Sure
Mr. Champion had the king and 1
since it was guarded only once
he won the trick and led back a
spade.
Mr. Dale ruffed in his hand,
cashed the jack of hearts, and
led his last heart to dummy’s
ace. The fourth heart from the
board furnished a discard for a
losing diamond.
Thus the old boy was down
one. losing one heart, one dia
mond and two spades. He was on
pretty thin ice on this one.
He could have been doubled
and set two, for 300 points, if
his opponents had defended per
fectly. That is, if Mrs. Keen
had shifted to a diamond at trick
two, Mr. Champion could have
won with the Jack and returned
to his partner's hand with a
spade for another lead through
dummy’s diamonds.
As it was, however, Mr. Dale
was pleased. He was glad to
give his opponents 80 points
above the line instead of a fat
partial score of 90.
