If West had been able to put East in for another daziinond lead. this overruifed would have turned out. very well, with West's re. malmng 9-8-7 of trumps bv::ng promoted. out East iliid no entry and so it was a simple matter for declarer to draw West's trumps and spread the hand. East immediately ”jumpcd on" West for "wasting his diamond queen on an m'ei'rurf," saying that if West had simply discarded on this trick. he eventually would have won two hcarl. tricks. This sounded logical to west. and he meckly apologized. But the dec-ifle-w away. Drummer went on a-i larer couldn't allow that, First he asked East what card he would have West discard on the third diamond. East suggested a spade. South then reconstructed the hand and replayed it openly with that change of defense. After holding the third dia- mond with the heart jack, South East showed out. South cashed all four clubs. discarding a spade. then cashed t.hc ace and king of spades. He then led the five of hearts and. of course. West was end-played in trumps. Winning with the eight. he had to lead back into declarer's tenace and. I5 before. only one heart trick was lost. East. in some contusion. lrew his criticism! with- -. Ailiiiission-750 . AN' i am.

He daslied at Druznmcr full speed. A! the very last instant something happened. Driimmcr simply wasn't there. He had dodged around to the under side of that limb. and he had done it in the very nick of time. .Hc hadn't seemed to be looking around. yet somehow he had seen ;the small Hawk. p Drummer dodged agziiii when fSb31'PShin wheeled and ciasiied at ;hLi'li.

Sharpshm knows when lie :25 beaten. After two or three -daslics at Drummer he gave a .sCl'Ci'lnl of disappointment and jbout his business just as if noth- Hng had happened. So inuny things lharlvlaened so often to litile people of the Gr-en Forest that they waste no time thinking iwhat has happened. it they ihink lat all. it. is of what may hap- pen.
