AFTER THE OPENING LEAD

Anyone-experts or novice-is apt to go wrong on an opening lead. since oftentimes the selec- tion must be made blindly. Alter the dummy is put down. however, a good player will "check up," and. l! necessary, take remedial action. Consider this case:

South dealer. Both sides vulnerable.

West selected the same lead that would probably be made by many experts-the spade ace. He intend- ed to lay down the king also, and by that sequence announce to his partner the ability to ruii a third round o! the suit.

Unfortunately [or this idea. dummy turned up with only two spades, and this, o! course, should have made West revise his plans. However. ior some undisclosed reason, West decided to play the spade king also. He then shiited a low diamond. East took the nine with the ce and returned a diamond-but outh was now in an excellentvposition. He ruiicd with the heart three, cashed his own top hearts. and then went to dummy with a club, to cash the heart ace. While he was thus draw- ing West's last trump he discard- ed a spade irmn his own hand, and could then claim the balance with solid clubs and the spade queen. West should have shifted immedi- ately to a diamond. instead ot cashing his second spade trick. True. by guessing correctly, Smith could drive out West's spade king and establish his own queen, but meanwhile the defenders could South twice in dia

yard he wanted a bite to eat. Just the tender tips oi a twig or two “as all he wanted. He tried one path after another and not a twig ‘could he iind within reach, not ‘oven when he stood up as high as he could On his long hind feet. and then he could reach pretty high. All had en browsed oii. There wasn't a twig within his reach anywhere. It wasnt until he jump- ed out o! a path uip on the snow that he could find a bite. and then only beyond the reach oi long lnecks. ln that part of the yard any- way éverything within Jumper! reach that could be eaten had been eaten. lt really didn't matter to Jumper then because he could go about on the snow where he pleased, and so could get what he needed where the Deer couldn't go. Blacky the Crow happened lo see him as he was leaving the Deer yard. “Isn't much leit there for you, is there?" said Blacky. \ "I wonder what they will do next winter. They will have hard work to find as good as this it they have to make a. yard then." .v “Perhaps they will make it here again." said Jumper. “What-tor? There would be no- thing ior them to eat here, or ior you either tor that matter," said Biacky. “Why not?" demanded Jumper. His eyes had opened very wide. He looked surprised. He was surpris-

ed.

"Shoots and twigs of bushes and trees don't grow in a. single summer like grass and other plants that come up every year. You ought to know that," said Blacky.

"Oi course I know it. I just didn't think of it. Why-—why this has always been my favorite part o! the Green Forest in winter because there always has been plenty to eat here. Now it is spoiled! There won't be anything here {or those Deer another winter, but there won't be anything for rne either!" Jumper sounded peeved. He was peeved. What Blacky had said was true and there was nothing that could be done about it. Never beiore had it entered his head that what Light- ioot the Deer and his family did could concern him in any way. He had been glad when they had made their yard there. Now he wished mightily that they hadn't.
