DON'T BLOCK YOURSELF

It will never be known how many good contracts are lost simply be- cause the deciarcrs block them-

Consider this too-typical iiiustrr tion:

Several North-South pairs in the duplicate match "fixed themselves" by bidding to three notrump and going down; other pairs scored 600 points by reaching and making five clubs. one North-south. how- ever. had the chance to cam top score by chccsing this auction.

8-2 3 North East South West. Puss Pass 1 9 Pun 2 0 Pan 3 .p Fun 3 N T Pu: 4 .5 Fun I 9 Pass Pass Pup

North made a good chance. It duplicate. when he bid tour hearts on Q-Z instead of five clubs on J-4-3.

West led n spade and the ace Dccl.-irer cashed the queen. rice and king of trumps, then liid down the are and ltinz of clubs. and when East discarded a dis- mond. led another club to dum- my's jack. Everything would have been nice and easy if West had taken this trick. but West was too smart . he held up the queen Now it took one or South's nrecious reniaiiiinu trumps to get back to his own hand, and when he knock- ed out the club queen. West in turn knocked out South's int trump with another spade lend. The cnntr;-rt was donmed

Hon very easy and simnle it writs for Smith to safeguard himself against the hold-up play so suc- cessfully employed bv West! All South had to do. or coitrse. em to throw duinnw"s cltih jack under- neath his own kinrz. Then the con- tiniintion at clubs from the closed hand vtmild have left South with plenty of trumps. and the contract would haveibeen safe.
