The Grand Coup T'!IS Is a play which sometimes bennies be-nnies possible at a declared trump mill if recognized in time Its perform- me will gala a trick for declarer. 1 ;. sfiitlalg of such a situation are: A miijor and a minor renaee In trumps one In juulor's baud and the other li M by declarer and one more trump In lecturer's hand than In junior's.

It thus re-.tves re-.tves itself Into a question of getting rid of a trump and this may often be ri i . e by trumping a good card of dummy s. Of course a re-entry card in dummy Is also necessary so that the situation must be recognized sev era I tricks in advance and the play phifined tot It. Here la a deal to lltustrute It; 0-K. f. 4 -A.

"r North deals and bids one no trump and East pusses, South has two good reasons for changing the bid to hearts: First he has a good original heart bid; second, he has a worthless singleton. Therefore he bids two. hearts. West passes and North considers con-siders changing bnck to two no trump. If he had no hearts or only one he would have done so; but his holding (10, 2) is so near normal expectancy that he passes, and South becomes the declarer to play two hearts. West has a very poor hand from which to make an original lead. The Ace-Jack combination, like the Ace-Queen, Ace-Queen, Is the very least desirable opening, because if he waits for that suit to be led up to him he is much more likely to be able' to get two tricks from It. lie therefore leads the four of clubs. Dummy Is placed on the table with the trumps at the right and declarer takes a moment to consider his play. lie must lose one trick to the Ace of diamonds and he may lose one heart, but otherwise It promises to he a very easy hand to play.

At trick 2 declarer leads dummy's ten of hearts so as to take the double finesse and retain the lead In dummy if it Is successful. After trick 8 declarer de-clarer sees that Junior holds the King and Jack of trumps and he recognizes the Grand Coup situation. He must plan to get rid of his nine of trumps and then place dummy In the lead for the twelfth trick. He isads diamonds at trick 4 because this Ace must be , drawn out as soon as possible. At trick 6 he trumps dummy's Ace of clubs and then takes his Ace of spades. He cannot continue spades because East has played the ten and probably has no more and he must not be allowed al-lowed a chance to use one of his trumps. Declarer takes his diamonds next on tricks 8 and 9 and then leads the good clubs from dummy and discards dis-cards his two spades on them. At trick 12 It makes no difference which of his trumps East plays. Declarer captures thera both and makes a small slam. Foot Note: The term major and cilnor tenace are used here because It makes the explanation so much simpler. sim-pler. However, the tramps need not be Ace-Queen and King-Jack, but declarer's de-clarer's last two must each be higher than one of Junior's Killed by Own Order In the Civil war siege at Torktowa. Capt A.

For several years there has been strong sentiment at Scranton for a public stadium that qould provide for big football games, sct olustlc 2 games, and professional baseball contests. On this account the Jen- nlngs memorial suggestion Is believed to have a splendid chance of going tlirough, it being expected that between the support of those realizing the need for a public stadium there and those wishing to i keep the memory of the famous Detroit manager fresh, a sufficient ? amount will be forthcoming. At least $50,000 would be required to j build the stadium.

Along with the shipment went Lou Fink, trainer of the heavyweight champion, to guard the lC-ounce training gloves, light and heavy punching bags and Tunney's ring equipment. Fink hastened South at the call of the tltleholder, who plans to start light conditioning immediately in prospect of two matches next summer. sum-mer. The taciturn trainer, who kept a wary eye on Gene's condition before be-fore almost all of bis major battle?, expects he champion to train in Florida four months.
