A concentrated effort. to relax and to take things as they coma will help to counteract such a tend- ency. Social life and travel will be under fine aspects from June until September.

I'm sure the people he takes out on business will ap- preciate his discriminating taste if he follows your advice. You should tell him how you feel about the situation, though.

South had this problem to solve: Should he continue with a cross-ruff to the limited extent possible. or should he try for excel- lent breaks in both red suits. hearts and diamonds? If South ruffed the second club with the heart five. and than ruf- fed a third club with the king of hearts. he would have no chance for 10 tricks unless he could drop I singleton trump honor under his ace. If that break developed, he would make (in all) two club ruff: in dummy, two top diamonds. one top npade. and five of his own alx trumps. After long thought. two of the four declarers who had landed in four hearts decided that playing for the singleton trump honor was not as sensible as playing for I 3-2 break of trumps and (3-3 break of iamonds, so they proceeded as fo lows: They ruffed the second club lead with the low heart in dummy, cash- ed the trump king. then cubed the ace and king of diamonds. properly discarding a club, not a spade. on the second diamond trick. They then ruffed a diamond, breathing a sigh of relief when both opponents followed nutt, and laid down the ace and another trump. Now they were aafe—Wcat, after winning the trump trick, could cash another club. but that was only the third and final trick for the defense. Modern Etiquette .7 Iohorio Ill Q.
