Secretary, American Bridge League
 All plays in bridge have name. The play in the following hand is known as the Suicide squeeze" It is one of the rarest plays in bridge and is perhaps the most difficult to recognize.
 The reason the play is known by this name is due to the fact that one partner holds two good tricks; however, if he cashes these two tricks, he will squeeze his partner

It's not often radio editors
pay tribute to those boys in the
control room of the studios-the
engineers. There's nothing spec
tacular about their work, but If
it wasn't for their efficiency
many program would go on the
rocks.
There's John CAN'T, the engi-
neer at VOL, for instance. John
is pretty nearly the whole works
when it comes to staging tricky
troadcastS.
I've been in VOL studios a
number of times when a dra.
matte offering, calling Tor
snatches of orchestral music, has
been under way. Out in the con-
troll room. CAN'T has two elec.
trically controlled monographs at
his hand and a script before his
eyes. The ease with which he
cues the show with properly Sc
lected phonograph recordings IS
little short of marvellous.
John has to be quick thinker
on all occasions. One day the
script called for a police car
siren. But when the crucial time
in the act arrived, there was no
siren. Fortunately the rescue
squad wagon was racing outside
in the street at that moment.
John, quick as a wink, seized the
mike and held it out the window,
while the raucous notes of the
siren came through according 10
schedule.
