ally quitted; but should he name or touch a card in the dummy, such card is considered as played unless he, in touching the card, say, "I arrange," or words to that effect. If he simultaneously touch two or more such cards, he may elect which one to play. CARDS EXPOSED BEFORE PLAY 65. If, after the cards have been dealt, and before the trump declaration has been finally determined, any player lead or expose a card, the partner of the offending player may not make any further bid or double during that hand, and the card is subject to call. When the partner of the offending player is the original leader, the declarer may prohibit the suit of the exposed card being the initial lead. 66. If, after the final declaration has been made and before a card is led, the partner of the leader to the first trick expose a card, the declarer may, in addition to calling the card, prohibit the lead of the suit of the exposed card; should the rightful leader expose a card it is subject to call. CARDS EXPOSED DURING PLAY 67. All cards exposed after the original lead by the declarer's adversaries are liable to be called, and such cards must be left face upward on the table. 68. The following are exposed cards:-- 1st. Two or more cards played at once. 2d. Any card dropped with its face upward on the table, even though snatched up so quickly that it cannot be named. 3d. Any card so held by a player that his partner sees any portion of its face. 4th. Any card mentioned by either adversary as being held by him or his partner. 69. A card dropped on the floor or elsewhere below the table or so held that an adversary but not the partner sees it, is not an exposed card. 70. If two or more cards are played at once by either of the declarer's adversaries, the declarer shall have the right to call any one of such cards to the current trick, and the other card or cards are exposed. 71. If, without waiting for his partner to play, either of the declarer's adversaries play or lead a winning card, as against the declarer and dummy, and continue (without waiting for his partner to play) to lead several such cards, the declarer may demand that the partner of the player in fault win, if he can, the first or any other of these tricks, and the other cards thus improperly played are exposed cards. 72. If either or both of the declarer's adversaries throw his or their cards on the table face upward
