The final hand of the 1947 national team championship shows declarer misplaying a grand slam. South wins the ace of hearts to guard against a singleton queen, but this “unsafety” leads to a 4 to 1 bad trump split. South should have led the ace from dummy first to allow two finesses through East.

Passports Not Required to Enter or Leave U S Before 1918
In a historical note, authorities state that except for the Civil War period, U S citizens did not need passports to travel into or out of the United States until 1918 when passport requirements were formalized. The statement highlights late nineteenth and early twentieth century travel norms and the shift to mustering travel documents.
