Textbooks[edit]

first of multiple sections -P64

The first three math books now listed must be textbooks, the titles suggest and numerous editions over multiple decades confirm. The fourth and last now listed --with earliest original publication date-- may be another, but less successful.

  • On the Asymptotic Solutions of Linear Differential Equations, 1913-1914

Card games personality[edit]

last of multiple sections posted together -P64

This page is in Category:Card game personalities. A couple of technical books on bridge play do not make even a bridge personality (and we don't call him one in prose). What was his role elsewhere in the cards world?

New York Times coverage[edit]

Note, this page is in Category:1959 deaths and we give death year 1960 in the lead citing OEB.

I searched The New York Times at ProQuest.com for 1959 to 1961 'clyde love', 'clyde e. love', and 'clyde elton love', hoping to find an obituary or an Albert H. Morehead bridge column of obituary nature. I didn't find one.

Bridge Squeezes Complete appears in a list of 8 "Books Published Today", 1959-12-08. Evidently Morehead was keen on the book, for he mentions it and 'Clyde E. Love' in three columns --eg "Prof. Clyde E. Love of the University of Michigan"

  • 1959-11-29, pX11 "A NEW BOOK ABOUT THE SQUEEZE PLAY"
  • -12-11, p30 " 'Smother Play' Is a Rarity That Virtually All Players Know, But That Few See"
  • -12-23, p24 "Once Maligned Professors of Mathematics Prove They Can So Be Good Players"
