This was the bidding at one table:

Wont North East South 1 Q Dble. Pass 2 Q

a q, a 9 Pass a 4 Pass 4 Q Pass Pass Pass

At the other table North passed his partner out at three spades, but. the problem of play was the same in botll cases, because the defense was identical.

West opened the diamond king. cashed the queen as well. then shifted to the ace of clubs. With three tricks home, both Wests then laid down the diamond ace.

W. Burgess)

"What what?" mumbled Peter, pre- lending he didn't understand what Jumper meant

and tail. No, sir. not one of lllose little spears had he seen and he had stared long and most impo- liiely.

Re had known Prickly Porky a long time. At least he had thought that he had known illm. but had ire? He knew now that he hadn't. I-le thought that those little spears everybody respected and feared. even great big Buster Bear, were all over Prickly Porky so that no- where could he be bitten without ilie bitergetting mouth and tongue filled with those painful quills. So always lle had thought of Prickly Porky as having no cause to fear anybody. More than once lle.had envied Prickly Porky Just a little.

"Now you see," said Jumper the Home, “no was with Peter.

"Know what?" mumbled Peter. pretending he didn't understand what Jumper meant.

"Why Prickly Porky may some- times have reason to be akaid of someone," teplied his big cousin.

' “No. I didn't see," protested Peter obstinately. _

“Then you must be stupid." do- clared Jumper. "He has no more protection underneath than you have or I have."

"What of it?" demanded Peter “He isn't going to stand up when an enemy is around. and unless he does no teeth or claws can reach him tulderneoztl."

“You forget Jumper mildly.

"What do I forget?" cried Peter.

"That if he should lie on his back he ‘would be unprotected. Tecill and claws could get at him then without much trouble." re- plied Jumper.

“Don't be silly." relorted Peter. “Ho isn't going to lie oh his back wlill an enemy around. I've never

something," said

The third diamond lead was ruf- fed by South (at both tables) and a low spade was led to the king. Then, feeling sure from the bid- ding that West had at least cards in the minor suits and was consequently very short in both majors. the declarers. with n single mind. led and flnessed the return spade lead, playing East for the well-guarded jack. West, however. took the trick and when he re- turned a club. declare: could not even get back to his own hand tn draw trumps — West ruffed the heart that was led to the queen.

The analysis of West's minor suit distribution was sound enough. but the decision to finesse for the spade jack was unsound. If East really held what both declarers feared- nnmely. the Jack and three other spades - it would not be necessary to finesse! South could play the spade ace on the second round and retain all of his chances. If West showed out, South would have a sure coup against East; if e.. he could cash the tilree top hearts. discarding a. club, then ruff a heart (East could not hold fewer than three hearts). Now South would merely go back to the club king and, at thr- twelfth trick. lead a heart. East, if he still had the jack and another trump. would be under South's Q-lt) of trumps.

see him on his back. Have y'all?"

"No-o.". admitted Jumper. "No, ll can't say I have. But that doesn't ‘mean that he never is on his back."

At thought of Prickly Porky on lillS hack and how he would look, iPotcr chuckled: "I would like to see him on his back. but I doubt if I ever will. I doubt if he ever is on Iris back unless in his den. and there nobody can get at him to hurt him," said he. "So what is there for him to be afraid of? If I Hod a coat filled with little spears such as he has I wouldn't be afraid of anybody or anything even if I had no little spears un- derneath. I never would stand up and I never would lle on my back. It would be silly to be afraid of anybody."

"Suppose some one turned you over on your back; what then?" said Jumper.

"But nobody could turn Prickly Porky over on his back!" cried Peter.

"Who says so?" asked Jumper.

"Who would? Who could?” de- manded Peter.

"I don't say anybody would. but there are some fools who could." replied Jumper.

"Who? Who could? That's what I want, to know.” cried Peter.

"Buster Bear for one." replied Jumper.
