Columbia Masters Retain
Lead for Honors at Chess
Local Players Overwhelm
Harvard, and Princeton
Shuts Out Yale Team

One-sided play was the order in the
second round Of the twenty-seventh
annual chess tournament among Colum-
bia, Harvard, Yale and Princeton, con-
Tested at the Brooklyn Chess Club
yesterday morning and afternoon. At
the close of play the champion team
of Columbia University held the lead
with total of 6is points, followed By
Princeton with 5a, Harvard with 4
and Yale last, without so much as a
draw to her credit.
Harvard's players, after sweeping
the board against Yale in the opening
round Thursday night, promised to
make matters interesting for the Blue
and White yesterday. The New York
ers, however, brought the Crimson
OF the games soon after the luncheon
intermission and eventually winning
the match by to O.. The last two
games were stubbornly fought and
lasted SIS and 81 moves, respectively.
This gave Columbia two matches
out of three on the schedule. with one
more to be played against Yale in the
final round to-day. Old Eli is in a
crippled condition and was again
beaten by to by Princeton yester-
day.
NJ. A. schapiro, '23; c. B. Isaacson,
'21; P. Wolfson, '22, and W. R. Thomp-
son, '23, were the players who made 1t
possible for Columbia to blank Harvard.
Schapiro and Thompson were the first
to dispose Of their opponents, the for
mer winning Queens Pawn game in
SO moves and the latter Ruy Lopez in
33.
Isaacson and Wolfson were kept at
their boards for more than six hours
before and after luncheon. Isaacson,
who with the black pieces adopted the
Center Counter Gambit against John
son.. of Harvard. worked out a par
ticularly fine, ending. Wolfson, on the
other hand, had himself to blame for
the long session, becauserafter getting
Frey into corner, he permitted him
to escape. The Columbia man could
have forced checkmate had he sacri-
tlced his queen at the right moment,
but this he overlooked.
In the Yale-Princeton match Cham
berlin opened with the Ruy Lupez, won
one Of Cairns's pieces and scored the
game after 80 moves. Miles, of Prince
ton, made amends for his poor showing
against Isaacson, of Columbia. in the
hrst match and played aggressive chess
against Brubacher, of Yale, whv had

So in.
But for two stymies Walker probably
would have got out in 81, for a card Of
II, as he was away from the hole for
puts OF less than three feet when
stymed. His driving, approaching and
putting were exceptionally good, and
his opponent had small chance.
Walker drove 500 yards of the fifth
tee, helped by a downhill roll, and
with splendid approach with a mashie
niblick laid his bali dead for what
would have been "birdie" there had
Danforth's putt not stymied him. The
ultimate winner played the tenth,
which is uphill and across a pond, in
rare style. The drive carried $50
yards; he was at the edge Of the green
in two, and ffteen-foot putt gave
him three.
At the thirteenth chip shot over
the mounds instead of the usual run-up
was both skillful and nervy golf
solved a difficulty in way which en-
abled Walker to get a par after

Miss Helme
Leads at Golf
Making 'Oners
English Player Performs
Feat Twice Within
"a Hours at Dieppe

A man golfer considers himse14
favored Of fate if he is able to maks
hole in one stroke during the frst
nVe years of his career on the links.
and If he should repeat the perform
ance ,s during that period he feels him
self lifted to the seventh heaven -,
delight. Women players, being lass
numerous, naturally make compara-
lively fewer "oners," and the iuckv
prayer IS looked on with great envv
oy ner less fortunate sisters.
:, 1here are certain few golfers in
Ine country, amateur and professional
w who seem to have prediction for
neollng their tee shots. An instance
OF this is Mike Brady, who not onlv
has the distinction Of getting down
IN one on numerous occasions. but
mas done the trick" twice in the
same day. Then, on the other hand,
there IS Francis Ouimet, former ma,
tlonal open and amateur titleholder
who never has been able to Join the
zone" ranks.
To Miss E. F. Helme, one Of the
best Of the English players, goes the
credit of holing her tee shot twice
within twenty-four hours on the same
mole. 1t was at Dieppe some years
ago, the first recognized competition
IN which she took part. She made the
fourth hole in one stroke late in the
evening, and early the next day in a
medal event duplicated that perform
ance, and subsequently won the
tournament.
The. occasion called for a mashie
shot from one side of ravine to the
other, a perfectly open hole with no
possibility of deception, for the green
was perched on the hillside. The fol-
lowing morning Miss Helme again
started around, and there were some
very long odds offered and accepted
about her chances Of doing it third
time. Needless to say there was no
such luck, but she did get a 3 there.
not discreditable under the circum-
stances
In those days the events for women
were scheduled at nine holes, the idea
being that it was too exhausting for
them to attempt full round. So far
as is known, Miss Helme holds the
women's record for two holes in one
within twenty-four hours.
Willie ogg, former Dedham profess
Club, is of the opinion that the South
will within a short time have all the
champions, including the national open,
amateur and women's titleholders. Miss
Alexa Stirling, the young woman who
has twice captured the national, is
resident of Atlanta, while Bobby Jones,
runner-up in the amateur at Oakmont,
is from the same town. Perry Adair
also halls from that section.
Most critics agree that it is only
question Of time when Jones will
win the classic, while Adair is a
serious contender in any tournament.
That, in Ogg's opinion, disposes of
two of the big titles.
Regarding the open possibility from
