Then Ferrie drifted into a weak ending, and in a position the same as our setting except that there is a Black single on square 7 instead of 10, he moved 7-11 and Jordan won the ending.

VOTED IT DOWX It is this habit of the wealthy big league baseball clubs of interfering with high school and college baseball players that is a basic cause of trouble and, coupled with shortage of room in which to play, has tended to eliminate baseball from high schoohand college athletic programs.

If the big leagues would apply the professional football draft rule, they'd eliminate at least one of these sources of friction. You ask why somebody doesn't suggest that they do it? Well they did. It came up for a vote in both leagues last year. Wanna know how the vote came out? The vote was 15 to 1 against it. Yep baseball could stand a bit of enlightenment.

For the second consecutive Saturday, Harry Smith, sandy-haired guard of the Trojan foot-ball team, starred for the Cardinal and Gold ruggers. The burly fellow scored 11 points to nab high point honors. Ed Stevenson, three-quarters, scored the first Trojan try early in the first half after a sixty-yard lateral-pass rush had worked the ball into scoring territory. A short time later Ted Tyler, lock, went over on a try to put the Trojans 6 points in the lead, but Ian Robinson of the Pasadena A.C.

booted a perfect 35-yard penalty kick to make the score read 6-3 at the end of the LONG BEACH, Jan. 22. (Exclusive) The first major shoot of the 1938 season, the Long Beach Trapshooters' Assocla-t ion's midwinter tournament, got under way here today with several outstanding scores being posted. The shoot will end tomorrow. Three tied for the singles title, determined by fifty 16-yard targets.

They were Bill Cree, 1937 Grand American Class doubles champion from Long Beach; of Los Angeles, and W. F. Harder, Nebraska State titlcholder. They had perfect scores. Harder also won the doubles with 47x50.

The black position is suflering trom a dynamic weakness. Sooner or later Black will find it necessary to go on an expedition across the board to stop the passed pawn's advance and capture it; the white king will utilize the absence of the black king to crash in among the block pawns. It follows from this, that the bigger the task of the black king In catching the distant pawn, the more difficult is Black game. If the pawn stood on OB2 instead of QR2, then It is proportionately easier to stop; If tt Is far away then It requires so many mora moves to go "there and back." The distance is measured by files, not tn any other way. The queen's rook's pawn is three flics away from the king, a knight's pawn would be only two.

To catch the rook'g pawn the king- hag to travel three files west, to return tt has to travel three files east again, a total of six moves. To catch and return from a QP pawn- tt has only to cover four files west-and-east. One speaks of "distant" passed pawns and where each side has a passed pawn of "more distant" pas-d Dawns The more distant pawed pawo from the hostile king tbe stronger it is!
