This routine is a three-phase version of the elevator aces. I believe Marlo published his first version in the Sphinx Magazine in the early fifties. I tossed out all my magazines a few years back as they took up my whole garage - so no way to look it up. If anyone knows the first publication date of the Elevator, please put a comment below.
I need to thank Bob Veeser and Cardini, whose ideas help me with my second and third phases.
