It happened just onoei last 5 year, when F. Worden of Columbia, aooons plished that feat. This year the cUsttnettom falls to Robert Bomhols of Brook1ym who. as a memher of the Mew York DsK verstty team, defeated Frank J. MaraheU tn the third round league match oontessed at the rooms of the Marshall Chess ChSS Id Manhattan last Saturday.

It was a struggle which went ts gf and lasted six hours, during all ef time the young Brooklynlte did not a single serious slip. This marks him as a player ef exceptional abiaity, whose progress and subsequent work In the league matches wilt be watched with keen Interest. Throughout the memorable game Bernhesl played with great steadiness and refused ts) be drawn Into compromising variations, as, for instance, at the 23d move, when, wits) QKt4, be might have invited lively cose plications. 'Marshall won a pawn en tsav 35th move, but gave It right back In order to neutralise an attack on the OR tile. The United 8tates champion erred at Ms 40th turn by exchanging pawns and creatine a weakness In the center, not having takssj into consideration Bernbolz's strong 4UL move.

Instead, Marshall should have aaV vanced P-BS. From then on Bemhols heel the whip hand, forced an exchange ef queens and emerged with two passed pa' on the king's side. Marshall rs single pawn was weak and of no avail. Appended Is the score of hie great with marshall: DUTCH DEFENSE. Bomhols.

The fact that south by no possibility could ever secure the lead again made no difference to that player, and north was forced to the conclusion that the four of diamonds was In the west hand, and was compelled to unRtiard his queen of hearts.

Riving the declarer a game to which he was not entitled. Cards of attention for good players are deuces, treys and fours; for beginners cards above the six are usually required.

Had west carc-lessly played the trey of clubs, south could have placed six clubs In the west hand and would have switched to spades, making game for the declarer impossible. The fall of the cards at trick one apparently marked five clubs each in the north and west hands. This made the return of the club less objectionable for south than any other lead he might have rnado n.t that time.

Gflme. of course, was easy for the declarer after hts clubs were established. South might have made the ace of hearts at trick four, but this play would not have saved the gnme and might lose it. South, of course, could not tell at that time that north held neither the ten nor nine of clubs. IT 8.

At trick one it wias impossible for north to tell whether the four of diamonds was in the south or In the west hand. As dummy could never give the declarer a discard nor say no chance of losing his ace of diamonds should west hold the other one. and, therefore, switch to spades. This would have made no difference whatever, hnd south discarded the four of diamonds Church, Thursday night. Supper was served by the Mothers' Club of Home-wood.
