West led the king of hearts and, with the possibility of a heart ruff staring everyone in the face, shifted to the queen of spades. Declarer won and surrendered a heart, but the defenders removed dummy's last trump. Now declarer went after diamonds, but West ruffed the third diamond and cashed a third heart for down one. Did everything go according to the script? Given a 3-2 trump split essential if the contract was to succeed declarer has 10 tricks going in: five spades, four diamonds and a club. As long as declarer can protect those, the contract is a sure thing.

That doesn't require any outlandish maneuver, just simple technique. When West shifts to a trump at trick two, declarer should simply duck. The best they can do is take another heart trick, holding declarer to the contract. Should they try anything else, declarer will be able to draw trumps and then run diamonds, thereby scoring an Opening lead: King of 7 Follow the bidding and play of this deal.

By Mike Antonucci Knlght-Ridder Newspapers Good television shows get it in the neck every season. They're invented with love, received with devotion and canceled with heart-lessness. But it may not be that simple in the case of "Quantum Leap." With the help of people such as San Jose, Calif. 's Christina Mavroudis, TV's most eccentrically original program is fighting for its life with a sense of indignation as well as determination. Mavroudis, a Silicon Valley secretary, is one of the leaders among much more.

That's why Mavroudis, 32, started a newsletter about the show in 1989. That's why a few thousand disciples attended a convention earlier this year. That's why news, speculation and trivia about the program percolate on computer bulletin boards. Indeed, that's why "Quantum Leap" fans, distraught over last week's news that NBC is canceling the show after a May 5 finale, are scheduled to rally this week outside network offices in New York and Burbank. The "Quantum Leap" production staff and cast have developed friendships with a number of fans, who have come to be considered the show's extended family.

Don Bellisario, creator and executive producer of "Quantum Leap," the fans who have transformed the 4 Vi -year-old show into something more than entertainment. She and her fellow "Leapers" don't call them "Leapheads" have imbued "Quantum Leap" with a status that emulates the "Star Trek" phenomenon. Most TV shows are just for watching. "Quantum Leap," which stars Scott Bakula as a heroic, accidental, body-switching time traveler named Sam Beckett, is for A. says the obsessed core audience and, the continuing vitality of the show's' premise mean NBC's decision won't dictate the show's fate.

"I know this show is going to goon," Bellisario said this week. "This! show hasn't reached the end of its time. At some point, I'm sure there'll be a movie if there isn't a show." Bellisario says it's doubtful NBC will reverse its decision, no matter how impassioned and impressive the protests by Leapers. But he said Universal Television, which owns the rights, is exploring the possibility of moving the program to another network. The charms of "Quantum Leap" include delightful performances by Dean Stockwell as Al, a frequently exasperated friend of Beckett who catches up to the site of each as a projected image a holographic guardian angel with a lascivious streak.

As Beckett has leaped in and out of just about any type of character female, disabled, black the show also has confronted social issues with a deft, suspensef ul style. The quality of this season's episodes, however, has been erratic, as even Bellisario and Mavroudis con-! cede. In the May 5 finale titled "Mir-, ror Image," Beckett leaps into him-; self in 1953 and discovers the power; that has been propelling him through time. But Bellisario says there's plenty of room to pick up again with new adventures for Beckett. "At the end," he said, "I left It wide open as to where he was going next."
