It was announced at the first zame last Sunday that notice would be made as to following games through the press.

It is not my con- tention to insinuate that The Herald is partial but lately we have looked for summaries about the Pioneer »brevi- ated and I don’t like the write-up at all as it was much too critical on one point and not encouraginz on other features of the game.
