SHEPARD FAMOUS BRIDGE TEACHES CAN SOUTH GO GAME? THE FOLLOWING hand Is of an Important type. Corrective defensive tactics, in place of routine tactics, may defeat a contract one or more tricks. Improper offensive tactics, Instead of more careful play, also may lose an added trick or two.

West’s tactics will answer that ques tion. The average player sitting West will at once take his 2 defensive dia mond tricks. Later on he will win a single added trick in trumps, thus standing no chance of defeating the contract. But West was better than an average player. He knew the type of hands about the table, and the best chance to defeat the contract When you hold a certain trump NATURE PRESENTS ■ Dog Snapper : smgk:: zm PS, J WHERE FOUND y Florida keys and West In characteristics Oblong body with somewhat Jr elevated back and large f; #e TODAY’S DRAWING LESSON flSj Snappers are of many species, all very active, highly valued as food and many possessing good game qualities.

When de clarer leads trumps you may at once win your trick in that suit, lead your suit to put partner in, so that he may lead back your short suit for you to ruff. Following the above sound defensive rule, West’s openin# lead was his 9 of clubs, which was won by the declarer, as West expect ed it to be. Had declarer led trumps West would have won the first trick with his Ace of hearts. A low diamond would have put East in. He would have led back a club. West would have won the third defensive trick by ruffing. Another trick would have been won by East in diamonds and another ruff by West would have de feated the contract 2 tricks. Fortunately for South, he knew what had been planned, and, better still, he knew bow to circumvent de fenders’ tactics and held the means to do this. Instead of lending trumps South won three immediate spads tricks. On the third one he discard ed a losing diamond, thus saving 2 tricks —a diamond trick and a club ruff. He led dummy’s last spade. If East followed smt and South dis carded a diamond 5-odd could be made. If West held the missing spade and East could not ruff a small slam was assured. When Fast ruffed the fourth lead of spades it made a trick’s difference whether decipher! overruffed, then gave opponents 4 single diamond, the Ace of trb+npJ and a ruff of clubs or tfidrar^ea^hi W last diamond, thus giving oppoi>jeihta only a ruff of spades and the. Ace of trufnps. Os course South "those tlia 5-odd score, by not overruffing. j
