HONOLULU, July 19.—Two more swimming records were shaded in per- formances in the second session of the u;mhr:ntlnn-l swimming meet here last night. Buster Crabbe of Honolulu, swim- ming for the University of Southern California, set a new figure for the 800~ meter free-style event in 10 minutes 154 seconds. Johnny Weissmuller es- tablished the world record of 10:22.2 here in 1927, ‘The 1928 Olympic record for the 800~ meter relay was bettered by the Hui Makani m of Honolulu in 9 minutes 29.4 seconds, shading the Olympie mark of 9:362 by the United States team. Melji University of Japan placed sec- ond and Yale third in the relay. The victory gave the Hul Makani aggrega- tion a point score of 37 for the meet as against 27 for Meiji and 25 for Yale. ‘The Los Angeles A. C.. represented by Crabbe, had garnered 15gpoints. In the intercollegiate “meet between Yale and Meiji the latter had 51 points to 44 for the New Haven swimmers. Officials announced they would seek to have the Hul Makani time acknowl- | edged as a new record for the 800- meter relay.

He has at least three for- midable rivals, two of whom_ he wasn't called upon to meet last year. He got past a tough spot in the last tournament when he defeated Murray Johnson, the favorite. John- son, a former champion of Minneapolis, is back with a strong hankering for Bow Wow's scalp. The latter was a bit fortunate in his battle with John- son a year ago. He got the jump in a~21-point game and before Johnson could find the range ran out his string. In a longer match, such as the 50- pointers being played in the present tournament, Myers would have found Johnson at least much tougher picking. An ominous figure in Bow Wow's path is Earle A. Crane, who competed in Maryland last year and was beaten in the State final by Millard E. Peake, who carried on to the metropolitan crown, Crane’s prowess is known throughout the metropolitan area and it was ac- counted a blow to the ambitious Myers when Earle chose the Plaza prelim- And then there's George Kelly, whose ability hasn't been advertised hereto- fore. Kelly was the runner-up last year in the Greenback lane tourna- ment but was unable to get away from business to compete further. Like Johnson, he lost out in the prelim- inaries when his opponént, Nate Miller, got the jump on him in a short game. Prior to the tournament, Miller had been George's regular victim. So if Myers can fend off the charges of these three he will have reason to be confident of reaching the latest stages of the metropolitan tournament. ELTSVILLE, Md., will have one of the largest tournaments in Prince Georges County, with Ed Kruse in charge. Kruse was the runner-up last year and figures to be a strong con- tender again. Nearly all of the two score entered at Beltsville are excellent pitchers. They include J. Hitaffer, G. Gibson, G. Reams, J. Tyler, F. Flore, A. Scroggins, A. Roby, W. Dwyer, C. Roby, E. C. Kruse, J. Smith, F. Man- uels, C. Cochran, A. Kerns, W. D. Coch- ran, J. F. Weingartner, 1. Manuels, C. Frey, T. Roby, A. G. Weingartner, J. ‘Whitehead, C. Brown, W. Roby, J. Moore, H. Pilkerton, F. Bond, G.

Roy Stanaert, 1929 champion, has | moved from Beltsville. | 'ORSESHOE pitching fever has taken hold sure enough at Vir- ginia Highlands, in Fairfax Coun- ty, Va., where Harold E. Christ is di- recting. In proportion to population Virginia Highlands has possibly the largest entry in the entire metropolitan event. ‘Writes Christ: “We don’t have enough time«before dark to get all the horse- shoe pitching out of our systems, so we're installing lights on the courts. When they're ready I guess some of us will pitch all night! Christ has four regulation courts, and they're all kept busy. Following are the results of matches played to date: Keys defeated Christ, 50—40; Hill defeated Smith, 50—26; Jenkins defeated Sweikhart, 50—46; At- kinson _defeated Henderson, 50—43: Kipps defeated McKim, 51—32; defeated Z.

Plaza—Crane defeated Eagle, 50-8; Joseph McGlynn defeated J. L. Burke, 50-32. 'N a battle between brother Knights of Columbus, Edward M. Reidy, chief counsel of the Interstate Commerce Commission, defeated John J. Sheehy, 51 to 24, the match being a feature of the Cleveland Park tournament. Sheehy kept pace until the twenty-fourth in- ning, where Reidy improved and went | on to win decisively. G. D. Riley, one of Cleveland Park's best last year, was eliminated by G. E. Chartner, 50 to 24. Chairman Christoff, runner-up in 1929, took a 50-13 beating from F. A. Brown. Ouch! i ‘Walter Steele bumped off R. D. Bate- man, 50 to 31, 'T was announced before play opened that 50-point games would be played | throughout the metropolitan tourna- ment. Apparently some of the chair- men missed this rule and are playing shorter games. 1In all such cases the matches will stand. However, many preliminaries won't be started until next week and the chairmen of these are urged to adhere to the 50-point rule. HELEN JACOBS HOME.

HAWKINS MOTORS 1529 Fourteenth St. N.W. Decatur 3320 Conventently Located om Fourteenth Street IN CHESS CIRCLES By FRANK, B. W. OUR rounds have been played in the team tournament of the In- ternational Chess Federation at Hamburg, Germany. The teams of three countries—Belgium, Italy and Mexico—were withdrawn, and a team from Spain entered the lists. Eighteen countries are competing. As this is written France is ahead with 2 matches won, none lost and 2 unfinished. Po- land, present champion, is second, with 214 won, % lost and 1 unfinished. Ru- mania has won 3, lost 1; United States, won 213, lost 1%2; Sweden, won 2, lost 1, unfinished 1. England has won 1, lost 1, unfinished 2. France sent a team headed by Dr. A. Alekhine, the world champion. Be- cause of iliness, he did not participate in the first round against the United States. He won his games in the second and third rounds against the champions of Rumania and Sweden, but did not play in the fourth round agaimst Ger- many. The United States team lost its first round, playing against Prance. Mar- shall, United States champion, drew with Deschamp; Kashdan of New York drew with Gromer, Anderson of St. Louis drew with Betbeder, but H. M. Phillips of New York lost his game to Volsit. This is the only game the United States team has lost thus far. Herman Steiner, New York State cham- plon, did not arrive in time to rhy in the first two matches, and Phillips played as substitute. United States won from Iceland in the second round, 3 to 1; from Fin- land in the third round, one game be- ing unfinished, and tied with the strong team from Poland in the fourth round. This team is composed of Dr. Tarta- Xower, Rubinstein, Przepiorka _and Frylman, the two first named being masters of the first rank.

NE of the best match and tourna- ment chess players who ever lived is Dr. Emanuel Lasker. He was born in Berlin in 1868 and is conse- quently in his sixty-second year. He began playing when 12 years of age and when 21 won second prize in a Breslau tournament, since which time he has been an acknowledged master. He won the world championship title by defeating Steinitz in 1894. Steinitz had held the title since defeating Anderson, the recognized champion of the world. ‘Tasker held the title until he was defeated by Capablanca in 1921, hav- ing held the title for 27 years. He was victorious in 21 matches. At the close of the Hastings, Eng- land, tournament in 1895, in which Pillsbury” came to the front by win- ning first prize in competition with the leading players, a tournament was held in St. Petersburg, Russia, in which Lasker, Steinitz, Pillsbury and Tschigorin competed. ~ Each player played six games with every other player. Lasker won first prize with the score of 11'4 won, 6's lost; Steinitz was second, 2 points lower; then came Pillsbury and Tschigorin. In the Nu-' remburg tourney, 1896, 20 players, he was first, 13'; points. In 1914 another tournament was held in St. Petersburg, in which 11 of the 1 players of the day participated. In this tournament each entrant played one game with every other en- trant, and the five having the highest scores played two games more with each other player. At the end of the first session, Capablanca had a score of 8 points, which was 1l points ahead of Lasker and Tarrasch, tied for second place. Alechin and Mar- s:nll also qualified for the second ses- sion. In the remaining eight games, Las- ker made ints and finished in first place, a half game ahead of Capa- blanca, who scored but 5 points in the final session. Lasker defeated Capa- blanca in the final game between them and in his last game with Tarrach Capablanca made what the annotator terms “an extraordinary blunder,” which cost him a piece, the game and first prize. The blunder is said to have probably been due to exhaustion through his hard struggle with Lasker the day before. Lasker won first prize in 10 impor- tant tournaments. He was not a El? - liant player, but he played with great accuracy.

Sorensen has ordered a 143-foot Diesel yacht, to be built in Bath, Me., which is to cost $500,000. And incidentally, isn’'t Bath an appropriate place to launch a boat? ‘You might think that a yacht costing 3500,000 was a bit expensive. Not at all. That, for a 143-foot boat, is only $3,496.50 a foot. Persons pay a higher rate than that for a sailor. Take, for example, that Boston sailor, Jack Sharkey. e measures about 6 feet, and, in his engagement with Schmeling, the customers paid him at the rate of $29,000 per foot. Gene Tunney, a Marine, when he met Dempsey in Chicago, was paid at the rate of $166,665 a foot. You could build an ocean lirer for that.s It looks as if Sorensen was getting a bargain. w. 'HE more the substitution of the Farley for the Queensberry rules is studied the better it looks. It has such interesting room for development. ‘The new rule ignores fouls, but per- mits any protective device, below the belt, a man wishes to wear. The thing to do now is to permit protective armor above the belt. This would lead to the revival of the old suits of mail, with their visored helmets. But, in that case, a man should be permitted to arm himself fittingly. The battle ax, the broadsword and the mace would come back into use. That would be great. The constant complaints con- cerning slow bouts would be answered. Many of us have wished we could have seen some of those old combats be- tween knights, when the contestants were encased in steel cans and ham- mered each other like smiths striking anvils. Yes, indeed, we are for full| suits of armor. Except, to be sure, the | gauntlets. The men would have to wear | six-ounce gloves to make things legal. | North American New: Alliance.) 1930 by Duper MONTEVIDEO, Druguay, July 19 ().
