J, Aug. 25— Princeton University mathematic- ians have.evolved séveral games of their own. Although very popular in professional circles here, the games probably never will attain universal appeal. | The colleagues of Proféssor Al- bert Einstein found ordinary diver- |sions uninteresting. Hence they |turned to games that appeal to the mind steeped in the complex- ities of figures and space. Among the first products of mathematical ingenunity was chess in three dimensions. The ordinary board with 64 squares was sup- planted with a System of eight boards superimposed to form a cube through which chessmen pass ac- cording to their regularly assigned moves. The added dimension pro- longs a contest to five hours. After devising cylindrical chess, and “anchor ring” chess, the fig- ure experts turned to the Japan- ese game of “Go,” invented by the Nipponese Emperor Yao in 2350 B. C. This is played on a square board with 19 parallel lines drawn in each direction. The two series of lines intersect 361 times. Around the intersections white and black stone counters are moved, 400 of each color. The object is to sur- round with one’s mén as many un- occupied m'.ersectwns a8 poss)bk ON WRESTLERS LANSING, Mich, Aug. 25.—In behalf of “gentlemanly sport,” the Michigan State Athletic Gommis- sion is pinning some legal holds on wrestlers. Twice since the State Trecently abandoned the “open door” policy on mat exhibitions, the commis- sion has penalized wrestlers in an effort to reduce farces. The commiission, under Chairman James M. (Bingo) Brown’s fight on ‘“ungentlemanly eonduct,” fined Pat McCleary of Ireland $25 for fouling Ali Baba, recent claimant of the heavyweight title, and ih- definitely suspended Nango Singh, Hindu, for roughing George Dus- | ette of Boston.
