The squeeze play is perhaps the AMNISTIAN IPON
BANGECE KARACHI most fascinating of the strategic
DATAVIA plays in bridge. However, it has always been a most difficult plny
to touch.
I believe now, for the first time. that a method has been discovered whereby all rudiments
of the squeeze piny can easily be taught. even to the beginner.
This method has been devised: by E. Hall Downes and, in his new book, entitled "Squeezes, Coups, and End Maye," he explains his new "Tape formula for recog- nizing and executing the squeeze play.
This is the first of a series off articles explaining Downes new Tapel formula. I know that, if) you curefully study the principles, } you will be able to execute the most Rieult squeeze playa ns easily as" an expert.
