A FRIEND of ours, and incidentally a magnificent player, is quite in- trospective. Whenever he gets a bad result he mentally reviews the bidding and play of the disastrous hand. He is almost always able to figure out where he has made his mistake and thus, when another hand somewhat similar comes along, he practically never repeats his error. After being set once at a four-spade contract on the hand here shown our friend had | an uneasy feeling that he had made a misplay. Almost immediately he | saw where he had made his mistake. | North, dealer. Both sides vulnerable, West. Pass Pass Pass Declarer’s line of play had been as follows: After trumping the second diamond, he had played over to the king, then back to his ace of trumps, discovering that West held two trump tricks. Declarer then played the ace- king of clubs and ruffed a club, estab- lishing the suit. He then led a heart to dummy’s ace and discarded one of his losers on a club. But West trumped and was then able to win another trump trick and a heart trick to set the contract. Declarer saw that he should have left another entry in dummy and that his proper line of play would have been this: After trumping the second diamond, he should have played his ace of spades, then three rounds of clubs. After trumping the third club, he would have been able to lead to dummy’s extra entry—the king of trumps. Thus he would have been able to discard his two losing hearts remaining clubs and, while his oppinent would have won two trump tricks, he would have been ck in hearts, ) d to answer King Honors Boy Scout From King Carol of Rumania a Boy Scout of 16 has received a medal for courage and devotion to duty. Con- stantine Veraticeanu tends his father's sheep, and was scolded frequently for losing one or two of his flock. Re- solving to find the thief, the lad re- mained away from home four days, watching and waiting until the culprit appeared. Finally he saw an eagle swoop down on the flock and spize a lamb. As the bird was rising with the victim in his talons, Constantine flung himself on the eagle and trussed it up in spite of the injuries it inflicted upon him. When his frame spread among the Scouts, the King sum- moned him to Bucharest and pinned the medal on his tunic. Twizzler Answer.
