West ted the diamond king . 1. Santa immediately played off dummy's top clubs and called for a low club from the board. Since Santa made his con· · tract, how did he play? He ruffed high and conceded a diamond to West. If he shifts to a trump ,· declarer playS low lrom the board (East ducks it North plays the eight), wins in hand, and trumps a dlamond ·on the board (or discards a heart) A.nything correc.t from there got fu ll marks. 2. If South returns a low diamond at tiiek two, West winning cheaply and shifting to his trump, _ what is the winn ing line ? Ag8.in, declarer must go low from the board, win in hand, and play three round s ol clubs . rufling the last high . Then he trumps a diamond on the board. and East cannot stop declarer from either rutting his last diamond or establishing a long club. 3. What opening leads dan defeat· four spades? Any major-suit card . , 4. How should the bidding go il East and West pass throughout? See the diagram . I also accepted a forcing one no-trump sequence. 5. 0 r if West enters ihe auction Oller South's one-sPade opening b1d? Probably West would overcall two dia· monds. Then Norltl does best to ma~e a three -diamond cue-bid raise , whi ch South will convert to lour spades . li West doubles, North redoubleS , then supports spades at the minimum level on the ne11t round . Again , South would bid lour spades. lhe pr izewinners will be announced on March 25. f) r Trim package lor sale. 6 panel pine doors, poplar base and casing .
