After being set one at his four- spade contract, South admitted rue- fully: “I guess I played the hand in about the only way to lose it. But I must admit that I was completely fooled when East deliberately al- lowed himself to be caught in an end-play which he could have avoided.” Certainly on this hand East was either very smart or very stupid. What do you think? South, dealer. Neither side vulnerable. 4K I » The bidding: South West 14 Pass 24 Pass 44 Pass Pass Pass West opened the jack of diamonds. South won, then laid down the king of hearts. West took the heart ace and led another diamond. Declarer played two high trumps, then fol- low~41 with dummy’s queen-jack of hwww. To this surprise, East (al- though he could have discarded) trumped the second heart, thus put- ting himself in the position of having to lead clubs. East returned the club eight, South played the ten and West covered with the jack. At this point South thought: “Since East deliberately trumped the heart in order to lead clubs, he un- dofibtedly has fiothing in the suit and therefore the king-jack-nine must be in West's hand. Accord- ingly, I have a cinch play. I'll let West hold this trick and he will then have to lead away from his king into my tenace.” This was South’s reasoning and certainly there was more than a grain of logic to it. When the club was returned, declarer confidently played low from dummy. To his amazement and chagrin, East won the setting trick with the king. * X X X Yesterday you were David Bruce Burnstone's partner and held: 4Q x x YVAKQxx OK x *AJX The bidding: You Schenken Burnstone Jacoby 19 Pass 20 Pass 39 Pass 40 Pass ($3] Answer—Bid five diamonds.

So Peter Rabbit had left them out when he planned party for Unc' Billy Possum.

Blacky the Crow scratched his head thoughtfully. surprise by telling Unc’ Bllly “We can spoil | th Possum all about it ‘beforehand,” said he. Sammy Jay slowly winked at each of the others. He cleared his throat and looked all around to make sure that no one alse was near. Then he leaned forward and whispered: “Let’s invite ourselves to the party.” “What do you mean?” exclaimed the others all together. “Just what T say,” replied Sammy. “We'll all be there,” cried Blacky e Crow. ‘The four little scamps shook hands and separated.
