Nanking, Feb, 21. Report from Tokyo suggests that the Japaneso Government in- tende to remind the Chinese Government of Japan's anxiety over the alleged international signi- ficance of the two big aerodromes recently built in Amoy and Foo- chow.

The boginner always finds It difficult to recognize a squeeze play, olace there nover- have, been set rules on how to recognize one and there are so many different types. Of course the most difficult of all squeezes to recognize and to executo properly, is the triple squeeze-where you squeeze both opponents. Between them, they

· HIGHLY SKILLED ACTING

Features Presentation By A.D.C.

Highly skilled acting makes the presentation of "Ten Minute Alibi" one of the most praiseworthy efforts in the long history of the Hongkong Amateur Dramatie Club, and it is. not surprising that this exciting drama, which is now playing at the Haymarket Theatre, London, is also attract- ing large attendances at the Naval Canteen Theatre,

There is a refreshing originality about the story which is only equalled by the clever work of the players. The cast is without a weakness, and the characters, as they gradually reveal them- solves make fascinating studies.

The highest credit is due to the cast and Mrs. Fay Grossman for the best entertainment Hongkong

beneficial, but the queen and Xhas had for a long time.. usually has proved to be a losing play, as it does in this particular

hand.

West won with the king, and the seven of diamonds was returned. North showed out, discarding the ton of clubs and East, the declarer, won the trick with the queen.

East then could take the finesse of the trump in dummy, North dis- carding a heart.

A-small-club-was-returned, North winning with the queen. North returned a small heart, and East finessed the ten, which held the trick. The five of diamonds was led and won in dummy with the king, North discarding a spade. Aamall club was returned, North played the king and declarer trumped with the six of diamonds, He then led the ace of diamonds, picking up South's last trump. A small club was discarded from dummy.

North was squeezed he could not let go a heart or declarer's ace and six would be good, so he re- leased the nee of clubs, allowing his partner to protect the club suit with the jack.

Declarer now led the ten of día- monds, South dropped the five of clubs, dummy discarded the zeven of spades, and North was squeezed in both spades and hearts. He de- cided, however, to drop the six of spades..

East now led the ace of hearts, which squeezed South. If he let go the jack of clubs, dummy's nine would be good, so he release the three of spades and declarer die- carded the nine of clubs from dummy, winning the last three
