paratively small, this weeks total
being less than $4,000. 900, about
half of which consisted of tax

the latest accomplishment of Carl Bron-
ner. who lost his eyesight and both
hands in the world war. Bronner, who
is at the institute for blind service
men at Evergreen. says he knew moth
ing about the game before he lost his
slight and had never seen it played.
He is fast mastering the art.
Mental chess is the name given for
the games Bronner plays as he never
touches the chessmen. He visualiZes
their position, calling out his rlaX us
opponent moves the piece and thsa
makes his own play
The idea OF mental chess played by

one by Robert B. Reid, supervisor Of
education at Evergree4, and formerly
university chess expert, who taught
Bronner the game.
