The tllree-spade contract defciited two tricks, but East's honors reduced the penalty to R mere 100 points~\vlllcll was cer- tainly la. victory considering the alarm that could have been made by the opponents!

er!

Actually. North does not deserve to share this criticism, because his double of two hearts should have alerted South to the true state of affairs. with good support in the higher-ranking spade suit. West could afford his psychic action. since he could always return to spades without increasing the bid- ding level.

The three-club bid actually made by South was it waste at time and opportunityl North, having already indicated his particplar strength by his double of hearts. could not do anything constructive over three clubs. It was south who. relying on North's double. and properly as- suming that llc would find htar! length and strength opposite him. should have actually bid hearts over two spades. and although

North-South might not‘ have reached their slam, at least the outcome would. not have been

quite so humiliating!

Just then there was en unpleas- ant sound that sent little‘ chills running all over Nibbiet. Roddy Fox was snllfing at that hole. It was a most unpleasant sound. It was the most unpleasant sound Nibblet had ever heard. It was ro- heated several times. Then all was still. They waited is little. then iflzether crept to where they could peep out in the moonlight. Just leaving the old stonewall and starting to cross the Green Mei- dows was one who looked V5;-y much like those Dogs Nibblet had known when he lived in the Wood- house.
