For the third time In succession Arthur W. Dake won first prize in the weekly rapid transit tournament at the Marshall Chess Club, scoring 9' points out of a possible 10. Reuben Fine, however, ran him a close second with 91. The latter drew two of his games. Other high scores were those of N.

Grossman, D. C. Forbes, 64, and M. D. Hago, 5'.

4Vi, Newell W. Banks of Detroit won eight games of chess, drew two and lost two and won eight games of checkers and drew five In his exhibition of simultaneous play at the rooms of the Paterson Chess Club last Saturday. Three of the games at checkers were conducted by the world championship contender while blindfolded. Of 16 games contested by The Eagle's chess editor in simultaneous play at the rooms of the Newspaper Club of New York, one was cleverly won by Robert Mayer, secretary of the chess section. Fernand Merckx, editor of Lei Messager, put up a stout resistance, but succumbed in the end.

The final score was 151 In favor of the single player. A Game of VtclssilnnVs Most, of the. tips and downs that could possibly be crowded into the average game of chess were more or less in evidence In the encounter between Alexander Kevltz, third prize winner, and Edward Lasker in the recent international masters' tournament. That Kevtta eventually won it was due mainly to the dogged persistence with which he clung to the hope that, somehow he would disentangle himself from situations that were anything but hopeful. Lasker, on the other hand, played with energy from the very start, obtaining the open game of which he was in quest.

He recovered a pawn he sacrificed In the opening, but failed to make the most of his middle-game positional advantage. Incidentally, he spurned draw by repetition. Overreaching himself later on. when he had time difficulties to contend against, Lasker drifted into a lost position. The score: ZCKFRTORT OPFNING.

yearly fixture. Oi especial moment, of course, Is that tim tournament to some six or even fit candidates which the executive committee of the National Chess Federation of Chicago has in mind for places on the United States team. Some of these have practically completed their plans and will soon be off, while others are looking up passenger rates and studying routes preparatory to an early departure. Frank J. Marshall, the United States champion, who captained the players whose brilliant work landed the United States sixth among 18 countries at Hamburg, will again as skipper.

He announced yesterday that, with the full consent of the Marshall Chess Club, he has decided to revisit Europe, the scene of so many of his successes, and to lend a hand at Prague. He will sail not later than the last week of this month. Isaac Kashdan, champion of the Manhattan Chess Club, our scoring ace at Hamburg, will probably be the first to get under way and expects to leave on June 17. He has other interests abroad, but will be on hand at the appointed time to play for the Stars and Stripes at Prague. As one of the world's younger masters of great promise who are being encouraged he will receive consideration when the Invitations for the international tournament, planned by Jugoslavia.

re sent rhilllpa rrnntlwn Aid Another member of last, year's Quintet at Hamburg who. while he played only twice, acted as manager nri adviser to his colleagues, is Harold C. Phillips, president of the Intercollegiate Chess League and one-time champion of the Manhattan Chess Club. Mr. Phillips, one of whose sons Is studying abroad, will visit Europe again this Summer, sailing fiom here on the Berlin on June 25.

If needed at Prague, he will arrange his affairs so as to be present during the International Federation Congress. The same applies to A. 6. Kussman, former intercollegiate champion, at present on the Continent. Among: others that remain to be considered are Herman Steiner of last year's learn and Israel both of the Manhattan Chess Club, and Arthur W.

Dake of Portland, holder of the Marshall Chess Club's championship. That all three should be over there to fight for Uncle Sam is almost too good to be true, but they are making the effort. The list of subscriptions, for which Leonard B. Meyer. 230 5th Manhattan, is the treasurer, is growing apace, but has still some distance to go before their hopes of crossing the Atlantic can be realized.

The Late Samuel Freda Members of the Marshall Chess Club mourn the loss of Samuel Freda, who died unexpectedly last Friday at the Presbyterian Hospital In Manhattan and was buried In the Mount Richmond Cemetery on Staten Island, where, It is planned, tablet in his memory will be erected by the club. Mr. Freda, who was in his 73d year, was born abroad but spent the greater part of his life in this country. For the past 17 years he had been one of Marshall's most faithful camp followers and admirers. As poet-laureate of the club it was his custom to prepare and read a poem at, each of the annual dinners of the club.

His last, contribution of the kind was offered at the function on May 16 and the second verse now makes rather pathetic reading: For members ri.jr ri.rd ljrt year We need not shed a finale tear. Aa none ha Wt thi earrhlv Oh. yea. Indeed. ail a'e berp.

When he wrote in this vein Mr. Freda was not aware of the recent nnsLiinff of R. McRerV nf Frank- 4Um i0jiM fort, one of the leading experts nt tnax state, wno, a nonresiaent member, was an occasional visitor at the Marshall Chess Club. As a cultured man nf gentle soul, Mr. Freda had won a place for himself in the esteem of the membership, and he will be sadly missed at their gatherings.

Another good friend of Marshall's and a namesake was lost to chess i when H. Snowden Marshall, former Unitd State Attorney for the Bouthern District of New York, died in Manhattan on May 29. The late Mr. Marshall, like his good friend, the late James W. Osborne, was fond of an occasional game, but his chess activities were mainly confined to the New York A'hletic Club.

Years go he was wont to play for the Winged Foot in annual team matches with the University Club nd the Crescent Athletic Club. Title to Harold Feit Harold Feit of Seward Park High 6chool won the annual individual championship tournament of the Judith Gordon Miss Judith Gordon, a senior, given the highest athletic award, the Kagathos Gold Medal, at the 13th semi-annual girls athletic awards assembly at the Thomas Jefferson High School yesterday Also honored with, outstanding awards was Miss Anne Broderson, who won the Louise Win gat Under fill! Certificate, a gold medal and basketball and tennis awards. Members of the basketball, hockey, baseball, tennis and volley ball teams received awards, as did ath letes who competed for the winning round robin teams in basketball volley ball, baseball and hockey.

How McDermnll Cured Lifting Head HtOl.SMOI'T-HtAO DOWN pi-rcHto -TO CAOOiE- By SOL METZGER Lifting the old bean too soon. raising it before the stroke is finished in a natural desire to note the result of the shot, causes more effort to be wasted in golf than I any other fault.

Even pros yield to it. The records show that lt must have been a quite common i ailment among American homebrcds I in the early days of golf. Nary a one of them won the national title until Johnny McDermott came i through in 1911. Golf was different in those days. But the faults were the same as now.

McDermott set about curing himself of the look-up habit. He hit upon a magnificent scheme. He would station a caddie somewhere upon the course, get his exact location fixed in his mind and then spill a perk of balls on the fairway, play-Ins: each one toward the caddie without once raiding his head.

RODRIGUEZ RELEASED iioe veteran first base. wan, was presented with his out- rlchf rlni. iu. release the Binghamtoo Club, In Two Events Westbury Cup Tourney at Meadow Brook lo Rival College Play By ARTHTR F. JONES Jr.

Always provided that we will get enough sun between now and Saturday to dry out the turf, two polo tournaments will get under way that day. This will mark the first organized competition of the season. One event will be the Intercollegiate championship at the Rock-away Hunting Club, the other being the third Westbury Challenge Cup tourney at the Meadow Brook Club. Since many of the crowd which usually watches polo games may like to attend the races at Belmont, it has been decided to start both games at a late hour. The contest between Yale and Pennsylvania Military College will not start until 4:30, while down at Westbury the Greentree and Whippany River fours will not ride until o'clock.

Apparently there Is splendid cooperation between the racing and polo authorities while very little between Meadow Brook and the Rock-away Hunting Club. It seems a rathpr bad thing that, two tournaments should get under way on the same day, especially as there are well-known players appearing in both games. Greentree is composed of Robert Lehman, Tommy Hitchcock, C. V. (Sonny) Whitney and John Hay (Jock) Whitney.

Whippany River is using Tow Ewing, Dr. J. D. Richards Earle W. Hopping and Cyril Harri son.

On the Yale team will be Dunbar Bostwick, Jimmle Mills, S. Prentice Porter and J. C. (Cokey) Rath-borne. Penn Military's lineup will be Joe Poor, Jack Pickering, Harry Teltel and Bill Nicholls.

TOURNEY GAME SUNDAY The second game of the Westbury Cup play will take plare on Sunday at the Sands Point Club in Port Washington, displacing the usual exhibition contest. The opponents will be the Aiken Knights Phil Iglehart, Tom Mather, Stewie Igle-hard and Billy Post-and Sands Point, which Is composed of John Smith, Eaile A. S. Hopping, Averell Harriman and A. Charles Schwartz.

There are a lot of other good teams in the Westbury Cup play, and all of these are also taking part in the Meadow Brook Club Cup's tourney which starts a few day? later. Among the tearms are: U. S. Army, Shelbournc, Meadow Brook Foxhunters, Aiken Cyclones, Tem-pleton and Meadow Brook Ramblers. The Army team is nearly the same as last year.

J. Watson Webb and Harold Talbott play with Shelbourne. Devereux Milburn Is heading the Foxhunters. The Templeton team contains Winston and Raymond Guest. Rath-borne, Pete and Dunbar Bostwick are on the Cyclones.

The Ramblers have Ebby Gerry, Mills and Bobby Strawbridge. In face, practically all the well-known players of the East will see action. Data on Rorkaway It has Just been announced that Capt. John A. Smith Jr.

and Lt. M. McDonald Jones will be the officials of the college tourney. Another interesting announcement is to the effect that, following the collegiate event, Rockaway will inau gurate a series of Sunday games similar to those of Sands Point. Those who buy parking spaces at $75 and $50 for the season will be able to use these through the college event and for the remainder of the season.

No special trains are to be run to the collegiate tournament, that branch of the Long Island Railroad having a great many convenient trains. They leave at 12:27, 1:33 and 2:07 on weekdays, with another at 2:43 on Saturday. Even the 3:27 will be in time for this first game. The stations mast convenient td the field are Woodmere, Cedarhurst and Lawrence, rather than Par Rockaway as for the old field. Automobiles go from Manhattan via Queens Boulevard from Long Island City to Jamaica; left turn one-half mile to Sutphen Boulevard, right turn on Sutphen, and Rockaway Boulevard to Central Ave; left turn about two miles to Wood-mere Boulevard: right turn Bbout one-half mile to polo field.

Allen's latest victory came yesterday when he gave Dark Sea, a former selling plater, a beautiful ride to beat Maya and Galahad In the feature rac on the card.

William MacKenzie of Freeport is named as one of tha two Grand Pursuivanta, and brinS tnem back to the program? Ridgewood wondered and audibly gasped last night, when 32 lions and tigers filled Urge cags in the center arena aa tha Hagenbcck Wallace Circus continued Its one week stand at DeKalb and Cypress Avenues. Many beasts clawed at each other, wrestled and roared, until the answer came In the flesh Clyde Beatty.

Like another Daniel, he walked into the den to cope with the situation. In one hand he carried a chair. With the other he wielded a whip and a revolver filled with blank cartridges. He closed the one exit behind him. Around him circled Nubian lions, Bengal, Sumatra and Siberian tigers.

Between him and the onlj door, two lions fought. Behind him a tiger crept. Although hundreds of people watched outside the cage Beatty stocd there alone. With last feet and eyes, he took his stand to prevent the light Irom spreading into an animal panic. He cracked his whip and great mouths snarled.

Calmly he walked between them and scattered the beasts like chaff. That was not all, nor could It be for 12 minutes in such company. Beatty cracked his whip and invited trouble. Deliberately he hit a tiger chased others onto perches around nun. In the center he stood and laced Rajah, great Bengal.

They looked into each other's eyes and neither would give an inch. Circus followers recalled that four weeks ago, In Louisville, from the same position Rajah had clawed him down and tore his arm. On that occasion. Leo, a. powerful lion, had sprung six feet from his perch to fight the tiger off.

Then Beatty bled through his 12-minute routine. But Rajah wavered last night, went back to his place. Another Bengal, less obedient, stalked Beatty last night with white fangs bared, striped sides heaving. stroae out to him threateningly and lunged with Its paw, disarming Beatty of his chair. Vindictively, Beatty worried that tiger until It lay at his feet, docile and abject.

In another's mouth he placed a stick and tugged till the beast snarled. Then he drew It with his gaze, slinking across the arena. At 2fi, Beauty has served five years of 12-minute sentences in that animal jail. He controls them with the whip, wards them off with the chair, uses his cartridges to frighten them in emergencies. He used many cartridges last night.

Once advised to carry a gun with at least one real bullet for a crisis, Beatty rejected the plan. He would not have time to aim accurately and a wound would invite disaster. With the marks ol teeth In his arms and bruises on his body from his pupils that lorgot, he still claims he carries enough equipment lor swift maneuvers. Other beasts who entered upon the Ridgewood jungle were 20 elephants marching to music. As gracefully aa their tonnage would permit, they paraded in tempo, turned with the waltzes, lav down at the lullabies.

Llama circles the track In a steeplechase, monkeys drove ponies around the arena, Polar bears sparred and a hippopotamus came out to show her youngest child. Attendance last night, as previously this week, was limited by rain. After its week here the show moves on to Perth Amboy and along the Jersey shore. 16 Brooklyn, LI.
