In the Vanderbilt four-handed final, Sigmund Dornbusch subbed in for a late hand and, after taking the ace of hearts and a club entry, finessed a heart, then misplayed trumps. A single error on trick two, aiming to guard against a singleton queen, cost the match by 2,310 points as six hearts were not made.
