Noted Educator
To Speak Here
For the third consecutive year
Dr. Willis A. Sutton, educator, will
There is a right way to play
the kind of hand shown today. 4
and several wrong ways. But per- 1
haps 1 should begin by admitting 1
that South should be satisfied with 1
a contract of three spades and 1
should not venture to game |
Having arrived at his ambitious 1
game contract. South might play 1
the hand in one wrong manner by 1
simply not playing it at all. In 1
other words, he might expose his 1
hand and concede that he must 1
lose one trick in each suit. This I
would save time, but it would be
sheer cowardice.
Another bad way to play the
hand, is to go at it in a very
straightforward style This permits
the opponents to make a mistake
but does not actually help them to
do so. The chances are that the
opponents will take their four
tricks.
The right way to play the hand
is to win the first trick in dummy
with the ace of hearts and return
the Jack of clubs from the dum-
my. This is not sure-fire, of courae,
but it gives East an excellent
chance to go wrong. There's noth-
ing like helping the opponents
to make a mistake.
East may very well think that
declarer plans a finesse, and he
will therefore play a low club fo
let South make his guess. Actu-
ally. as it happens, South has no
guess, and he will win the trick -
with the king of clubs Having sto-
len his club trick, South is now
on sure ground
Declarer can now lead a dia-
mond towards dummy and East
should refuse that first diamond
trick. A heart is next returned
from dummy, and East must take
his king. I
East should lead a trump and
West should let South win the i
first round of that suit. South
must not lead a second trump but
simply ruffs his queen of hearts
in dummy with the nine of spades.
Nothing can then prevent him
from making his game contract. J
