HOW LASKER LOST
THE ELEVENTH GAME
Capablanca Sacrifices Queen
for the Knight and the
Doctor Resigns.

HAVANA, April i5.--Playing on for
seventeen moves after the first adjourn
ment OF the eleventh game OF the cham
pionship chess match. during all of
which time only one capture on each
side occurred. DR.. Lasker and capablanca
finally arrived at n position in which
the former had a Queen. Bishop. Rook
and four pcwns against o Queen. Knight,
RooiS and four pawns-perfcctly even as
70 material. but quite unequal in the
matter of position.
DR.. Lasker had permitted his King
to be drawn out az far as the third rank.
the while HIS protecting Queen and Rook
had wandered bit too far afield.
Capabianca saw HIS chance and got pos
session OF an open file with both his
Queen and Rook. BY posting his Rooh
on the seventh row he drove out the
Black Queen. which had gone back 70
the support OF the beeagured monarch.
Having thus set the stage to his lik-
ing the Cuban proceeded to a little dis
play OF brilliancy. which was on the
surface. to be sure. but none the less
effective. In short, he sacrificed HE
Queen for the Knight. whereupon DR..
Lasker resigned. Had lie captured the
Queen With his own Queen. as he might
have done, checkmate on the move would
have followed. The score:
ELEVENTH GAME - QUEENS GAMBtT

Jack Dempsey, who will defend the
heavyweight championship OF the world
against the attack OF Georges Carpen-
tier, heavyweight champion of Europe,
IN ring pitched on the New Jersey side
OF the Hudson River on July 2. arrived
In this city yesterday after an extended
vaudeville tour Of the West. The cham
pion declared he felt well and that he
weighed 191 pounds
Dempsey will cease all stage or film
work till such time as he finishes with
Carpenter and while he will not begin
active training at the present time he
will do light work by way of preliminary
preparation.
Dempsey will be settled IN training
quarters by May ] and will then start
his campaign for condition. II Is inti-
mated that the champion will not
train in public as he did at Toledo. II
Dempsey can show the form on July 2
that he possessed in training quarters
at Toledo it will make little difference
whether he performs his exercises in
the presence OF the public or not.
At the same time it would be grace
ful act on the part Of the champion to
permit the public 10 watch his prerara-
ton for the contest. This would enable
the patrons of boxing to decide as to the
physical condition Of the champion.
Even thus early in the game admirers
OF boxing are beginning to speculate on
the chances Of The F'renchnan against
the worlds champion. Based on the
belief that the champion has deprecated
physically since he battered Willard TO
defeat. many shrewd judges are plan
ming 70 wager on Carpenter Il the odds
are attractive.
TO the writer It appears that Demp-
sey. provided he is within so per cent.
1f he he zf
should enter the ring a one to three
fsvorite.
Many who favor the chances OF the
Frenchnan incline to the belief that
he will counter Dempsey In one Of the
latter's rushes and land a knockout
punch.
The partisans Of both men are well
provided with arsuments 70 back their
opinions. and only on July win the
losers be convinced Of their error.

Commander j. +. l.. Ross. the Canad-

Grace tomorrow. George Odonl who
has a public stable at Gravesend. has
been engaged to train Mr.. Gcrry's
horses.
The final break between Mr. Ross
and his trainer came after long con-
ference between the two at the Ross
farm in Maryland last night. They
parted on friendly terms. Mr.. Ross
would not make a public statement last

he had no intention OF trying to violate

he had had no personal quarrel of any

Bedweil and Shilling will continue their
fight for reinstatement is matter OF
conjecture.
Henry Mcdaniel is a high class
trainer and a thorough horseman. While
with Mr.. Gerry last season he didn't
have many horses or much luck and
failed to win many races. Previous to
that he was in charge of Willis Sharpe
Kilmer's string and had great success.
II was he who developed and trained
the mighty Sun Briar and prepared Ex-
terminator for the Kentucky Derby.
which the geldng won in 1918.
George Odom, who takes McDaniers
place. Is trainer and Il successful one.
He has handled the horses belonging TO
hsif dozen owners within the last
decade and had success with every
stable. Last season he was under con-
tract to jefferson Livingston and al
though his string was small and Grip
pied, he saddled twenty winners and
earned $31.21s for his employer. His
most successful season was while he
was training the Brighton stable for the
late George Smith. Among his charges
at that time was the great Purchase.
