the smooth exchange of informa- tion between the opponents at I

therefore, that the adversaries frequently fail to arrive at their best contract after a preemptive bid and. in fact. are sometimes completely shut out of the bid-ht ding even though they have the preponderance of the high cards.

South might have bid three no- trump and North might have doub- led three hearts. but the fact re- mains that North-South arrived It the inferior contract of five clubs. Without the interference bid by West. I final contract of three ao- trump is not hard to reach.

South had his work cut out for him to make five clubs. I-le won the heart lead in dummy and played the ten of clubs, winning

the finesse. Another club finesse proved that East had started with three of them and that there would be trouble taking care of the los- ing heart.

Two diamond losers appeared certain since the ace of diamonds was sure to be in West's hand as part of his vulnerable three bid. The heart loser could not be avoid- ed by attempting to ruff it in dum- my because East was obviously short of hearts.

The situation looked dark. but louth found I perfectly legitimate way to make the hand. After draw- ing East's last trump. declarer played to the ace-king of spades and trumped to a spade. South then led his last two trumps. leav- ing himself with the K-x in both red suits. On the last trump West had to choose I discard from his holding of J-1&9 of hearts and A- 10 of diamonds.

I! he discarded I heart. South would force him into the lead by playing the king and another heart,

compelling West to lead I dia- mond. If West discarded the ten of thamonds. I low diamond play would estahlkh Southts ldng. Ei- ther waylthe jig was up. -

Cheers to South for his fine

the credit for having made It pos- sible to test South's mettle.

IEDTIME STORIES

By Thornton

You often find the old is best. -Polly Chuck.

Johnny and Polly Chuck had been flooded out of their home in the Green Meadows. The flood was over. but the house was too wet to be lived in. Johnny and Poly had had a falling out. They had disagreed. Johnny was for going over to the Old Pasture to live. Poly refused. Reddy Fox and Mrs. Reddy were living over there and she didn't want them for neighbors. So Johnny had gone to the Old Pasture and Pol-

lot of bushes had grown up there beside the old wall since she was last there. but she found the old worn-down doorstep and the door way to the old underground house. it was pretty well filled with dead leaves that had blown in. She htt- gan to dig these out. A lot of sand had washed down and part- ly filled the hallway. It didn't take Poly long to dig this out. Down below the old house was much as it had been when she 'was there last. Down in the bedroom deep in the ground under the old wall it was so dry that the old bed of leaves was still good. Poly gave I long sigh. it was I sigh of re- lief. It was good to be back in the old home. it wouldn't need too much work to make it as good as

In fact, when she returned to sit up on her doorstep, there was still I clov- er leaf hanging from one corner of her mouth.
