SPADE CONVENTION

I.--Where players agree "not to play spades" the rule is, that if the

spade make is not doubled, the hand shall be played where either side is

20 or over.

II.--If the third hand player ask, "Shall I play?" or should he lead out

of turn, or should the eldest hand lead without asking permission to

play, the spade maker may take two on the score or may call a lead and

require the hand to be played out.

III.--Should the third hand player double before his partner asks

permission to play, the spade maker may decide whether the double shall

stand or not; but the hand must be played out.
