HOW DOES
DECLARER TAKE
THOSE TRICKS?
Elvis Stojko, a three-time world
figure skating champion from
Canada, said, “I had the strength
and the finesse there and put it all
together.”
There is hardly a bridge deal
that goes by without at least
one finesse being attempted.
Sometimes, though, how that
finesse is approaphed can be key.
In today's deal, how should South
play in three no-trump? West leads
the heart five. East wins with his
queen and returns the suit to
dummy's now-bare ace.
South's two-no-trump rebid
: shows 18 or 19 high-card points
(or a great 17 or poor 20) and
is in principle game-forcing. The
responder then has the three-level
to investigate strains other than
no-trump and, perhaps, to start a
slam investigation.
Since the lead has removed .
dummy's only fast entry, South
cannot use dummy’s diamonds.
Instead, he must hope to take one
spade, one heart, three diamonds:
apd four clubs. To get those club
tricks, though, might require taking
three club finesses. Declarer must
stay in the dummy throughout.
First, he must run the club nine.
When that wins, he continues with
the club queen. Then East has no ‘
defense.
Note, though, that if South starts
with dummy’s club queen, East
can defeat the contract by playing
low to this trick. Then what does
declarer do? If he follows suit with
. his club three, he must take the
second club trick in his hand and
cannot finesse for a third time.
Or, if he unblocks his 10 or jack,
then leads dummy's nine, East can :
: cover with his queen. East's eight
will beat declarer’s three on the
fourth round of the suit.

Dear Abby: I need
help! I have shoplift-
ed several times. I
was caught and have
a police record. I am
a grandparent. I know
it’s wrong, and I don’t
do it all the time. Is
this a mental disorder,
or am I just being stu-
pid? If I know this is
wrong, why do I keep
doing it? And where
do I start to look for
help?
Sticky Fingers
Dear Sticky Fin-
gers: Some people
shoplift because they
are criminals, some do
it for “thrills,” and oth-
ers do it to make up for
something else that is
missing in their lives.
Because you know
what you are doing is
wrong,
would
like to
under-
stand
your
DEAR ABBY compul-
sion and
want to stop, the per-
son to discuss this with
is a psychologist. Your
physician can refer
you to one, or contact
your state psychologi-
cal association to find
someone in your area.
Dear Abby: My
girlfriend and I have
called it quits after
three years. Distance
was the main reason. It
wasn't a bad breakup,
but it’s still a difficult
transition for both of
us. She would rather
we not see or speak to
each other for a while
to let things heal.
Her birthday is
coining up soon, and
I don’t feel right not
acknowledging it. Her
special day means.a lot
to her, and I still love
and respect her for
who she is. Is sending
a card and gift appro-
priate, or should I just
leave her be?
Distance Was The
Reason
Dear Distance:
Send a birthday card
and tell her that be-
cause the day is spe-
cial, you couldn’t let it
pass unacknowledged.
It shouldn’t be neces-
sary to send a gift in
light of the fact that
you are no longer a
couple.

to fall into bad habits for the sake
of convenience. You are what you
eat, so put more effort into nutrition
and diet if you want to look and feel
great.

close confidant will help provide you
with a different perspective on a
troubling issue. Family members will
be oversensitive, so be encouraging
and gentle to avoid discord.
LIBRA I Sept. 23-Oct. 23) - Don't
overlook the importance of getting
along with your peers. Tension will

causes stress, and a hostile
environment is counterproductive.

have been working too. hard. Take .
time out and visit friends, or venture
