DR. LASKER HAS FIRM GRIP ON CHESS TITLE ‘ NEW YORK, April 12.—Interest in the last four rounds of the itnerna- tional chess tournament is focused on the fight for Jeadership between Jose Capablanca of Cuba, world cham- pion, and Dr. Emanuel Lasker of Ger- many, former world champion, who holds a one-game lead at the begin- ning of the nineteenth round today. Dr. Lasker must meet Dr. Savielly Tartakower of Austria, Ed Lasker of Chicago, Gesa Maroczy of Hungary and Frank - Marshall of 'New York. Capablanca’s opponents will be Tar takower, Richard Reti of Czecho- slovakia, F. D. Yates of England and Eldfin Bogoljulbow of Ukrainia. It is not thought by thé experts that the word champion can overcome his rival's advantage. Frank Marshall of New York ad- vanced rapidly in the standing during the last two weeks and has a secure hold on fifth place, the last prize win- ning position, Reti and Alekhine are {in_third and fourth places. | Bogoljubow won an adjourned con- ! test from Yates in 90 moves and drew anotser adjourned game with Alek- ibine In the only mm\‘ hes yesterday. o The “peerless leader” | ctice and the worth | APRIL 12; 1924. COLLEGE ATHLETES HAVING A BUSY DAY | University of Maryland's base ball team, which yesterday gave the Ma- rines an 8-to-1 trimming at Quan- tico, is the only local collegiate com- binatfon that will not figure in a| contest today. \ Georgetown and Gallaudet have | games here, while the Catholic Uni- | versity players are in Philadelphia to tackle Penn. The Marines will visit the Hilltop, while St. John's of An- napolis will appear at Kendall Green. Although Maryland will not be rep- resented in the diamond affrays to- {day, athletes from College Park will { be kept quite busy in Central High School Stadium. The Old Liners were { to tackle Virginia Military Institute {in a dual track meet, starting shortly | after 1 o'clock, and at 3:30 the Col. lege Parkers and the Naval Academy lacrosse teams were to battle. The clash of the stickmen promised to. provide Washington fans with more | thrills than they ever had gotten out of one contest before. Schrider, the southpaw, ace of the Maryland ‘hurling corps, subdued the Devil Dogs, allowing them only four | hits and fanning elght. However, he had to be good in the pinches, as he passed nine men. Maryland got four runs in the first inning to put the ggme on ice when Troxell and Bes- ley got triples and Groves made a homer. These, with an error, gave the Old Liners more than enough tallies. G.
