Practical bridge play prompts a duck and a misread trick
South leads a spade to the king and West ducks, forcing South back to dummy with a club. After another spade and queen, West shows the ace. South loses two more tricks but notes the risk of misplaying with a five card spade holding. West correctly notes no holding allows the king without the queen in reserve.

Industry Chief Reports Good Appliance Sales
CHICAGO AP Guenther Baumgach president of the Assn. of Home Appliance Manufacturers says 1974 home appliance sales were the second highest in the industry, totaling 31.4 million units mainly buoyed by freezers. Forecasts indicate 33.3 million units in 1975 with freezer sales expected to rise to 3.2 million. He links high freezer demand to efforts to beat food-price inflation through storage and bulk buying. Competitive pressure could push prices down as mortgage money loosens and residential construction grows.
