 The ceremony began Saturday morning at the Beth Israel syna- gogue. In accordance with the cus- tomary procedure, the Bar Mitz- yah was called to the Torah (scrollD and read the weeks chap. ter of prophets. He also delivered a speech in Yiddish immediately proceeding the. sermon of Rabbi Sheinkopf.
 At the dinner table on Sunday the Bar Mitzvah again spoke in English acknowledging his duties and responsibilities as a full fladged member of the community.
 Rabbi Moses D. Sheinkopf was the principal speaker at the ban quet. Harry Brownstein, president of the Waterbury Hebrew Institute, was toastmastre. Other speakers were: Abraham s.

two necessary threats and the as- sumption.
 Now the deciarer knows that te cannot squeeze West until his hand contains but these three cards-the spade queen and the diamond king-queen. The only point in the play when this sitn- ation will exist is at the eleventh trick, at which each hand will be reduced to three cards, and the squeeze must therefore take place at the lead to the eleventh trick It cannot be made at any other time.
 Point three in the lapel formula dictates that declarer must be able to project the play to the eleventh trick, at which point West will be squeezed. He must therefore ac- count for Il winners without dis turbing the two threats.
 Now let us see whether the de- clarer can do this. He. can win one spade trick, six heart tricks, and four club tricks-11 winners in all--in straight, uninterrupted play. Then, when declarer leads his last winner for the eleventh trick, West will be squeezed. His hand has been boiled down to onl" three cards and these three cards must be spade queen and the dia- mond king-queen, to retain control over the two threats.
 Declarer therefore has success fully projected the play down to the point where the West hand .s placed in squeeze position.
 In tomorrow's article shall d!s- cuss the fourth element in the Tapel formula-the necessary final entry card--which must exist in every squeeze play.
