BY HOWARD S. FISK.

Maryland was selected last week as

approximately 125 miles. The roads
were excellent every mile of the way
and through one of the most inviting
sections of the state. The run was over
a triangular course two sides of which

LOCAL CHESS CLUBS
COULD SHOW WELL
Nav Combine to Form Team to
Play for Rice Memorial
Trophy.
COULD GET STRONG TEAM

The proposed great series of matches
between the chess clubs Of the United
States, Canada and Cuba for the Isaac
L. Rice international trophy, as ex-
planned in the circular letter printed In
this column last week, has caused much
speculation among local players as to
what part. If any. Washington may be
expected to play in the conflict. In the
first place, 1t may be conceded without
argument that at least for this event
consolidation of the Washington
Chess and Whist Club and the Capital
City Chess and Checker Club would
have to be effected In order that, this
city might stand a show of winning
hrst honors in the southern section
Havana. New Orleans and Tampa would
be the probable competitors In the Sec
tional round. for Baltimore could
scarcely win a game against com
bination Of the two local institutions
A suggested team to represent Wash
ington consists of Fox, Whitaker,
Norman, Napoleon, Walker. Stacey.
Lowell and Knapp, with Stephenson and
Ballou as substitutes. This team
should have the edge on New orleans
pa, unless the match with the tlori'
dams should take place in midwlnter
when they would probably be strength
ened by the addition of Showalter ano
Norman, and Washington weakened
to the extent of the loss of the last
named player. Should Washington be
SO fortunate as to win in It's section
Chicago would almost certainly be it,
opponent in the semi-finals. and
strange as 1t may seem when the rela-
tc ri
cred. on an eight or ten board match
the local experts dope out a shade
stronger than the Windy city masters
One Of the New York clubs, probabi!
the Manhattan, would almost certain!
win in the east against Philadelphia
Boston and Pittsburgh and would sure
~ triumph over any team that Canada
could present. So II all the foregoing
'ifs" are realized Washington will play
New York In the final round for tht
worlds most splendid chess trophy.
Granting that the playing strength
of the city can be pooled for this event
1t still will be necessary that every
chess player in the District help in thu
undertaking. Quite a large sum Of
money will be needed for these +e'a-
graph matches, particularly If Wash
ington wins against its nrst opponent
as that opponent probably would bt
New Orleans. the presumably strong
est rival. making almost certain
matches with Havana and Chicago. Il
would therefore seem desirable tina
the Washington Chess and Whist Clul
and the Capital City Chess and Checker
Club should hold meetings to conside
the whole question in all its aspects
coming to an agreement for action, 4
such is the desire of their members, a
the earliest possible date.

BALTIMORE. October 21.-Superior

for Hopkins today. and the Black and
Blue met it's first foot ball defeat Of the
season at the hands Of Gettysburg. The
score was 81 to o.
After playing on almost even terms
with their opponents for three periods.
Brennick's men blew up In the last
quarter. and the battlefield eleven
walked all over them, scoring three
touchdowns in twelve minutes. This
outcome was q surprise to every ono
who watched the game.
The main dynamo In the Gettysburg
power plant was a young man named
Rote. He tipped and sparkled and
flashed around the field all afternoon.
His work stood out and made other
men in the game look mediocre. He
was put down in the lineup as playing
the quarterback position, but he car
ried the ball about pine-tenths Of the
time. did the punting and most Of the
forward passing. and he accomplished
all of them with an ease and finish
that seldom has been duplicated on
Homewood field.
