Goofs and a Grand Slam Blunder in a 1952 Bridge Match
In a dialogue about expert misplays Oswald recalls a 1952 men's team rubber match after returning from Korea. He bungled a four spade hand by revealing a misplay on a club queen sequence, costing the contract though his team still won first place. The exchange ends with a quip about bidding by West North East South.
