Carl Hesse defeated F. B. Walker in
the fifth round in the championship
tournament of the City Club. Walker
tried his favorite center counter gam
bit. but Hesse had good defense.
Hesse has won all five games played by
him in the tournament and has exhib-

In a book of Paul Morphy's games
loaned to the City Club by Capt. w. s
Peters, are some remarks by Frank j
Marshall, chess champion of the United
States, which are instructive and will
be appreciated by all players who wish
to improve their game.
Capt. Peters asked Marshall, What
is the best way for a middle-class anna
teur to study this book, and why?"
To which Marshall made the follow
ing reply:
"I can only answer your question by
saying would advise him to take enc
game (any game), or more II possible.
and play this game over till he could
play it without the aid Of this book
then, when he wanted to, he could play
over the game and then would under

would be the result"

STARTS BALLYHO0
FOR MIAMI BATTLE
Bruen Handling Big Garder
Ring Show-WiII Prepare
Attractive Card.
BY EDWARD J. NEIL,


n VIEW YORK, January 11.-Slowly,
nj but surely, the ballyhoo is
" picking up momentum for the
second annual fiesta Of the
framed fizzes at Miami, in the South
land, February q.
Frank Bruen, general manager at
Madison Square Garden, deserted the
fistic mansion today for the warmth
of Florida, where Jack Sharkey, the
Boston sailorman, will make his sec
ond stand under the palms, this time
against Phil Scott. the lanky English
man. Bruen, in his spare time before
the actual machinery of fight prepare
ton starts grinding about February /,
will manage the horse racing meet
opening January Is at the Hialeah
track, in Miami.
The remainder of the garden organt-
zation will depart in small groups from
now until February /, when the ticket
sellers are due in Florida. The fighters
themselves start training about the f1rst
of next month.
Pauline TO Show.
One of the battlers, it appeared to-
day, will be Pauline Uzcudun, the bat
tered BASQUE, who came from behind in
sensational fashion last night to whip
Otto Won Porat in Madison Square
Garden. Pauline seems certain OF
berth in the semi-final If only as an
appeal to the Spanish vote OF FLORIDA
and nearby Cuba. -.
An effort is being made to pair
Pauline with Jimmy Maloney. one-tlme
Boston rival of Sharkey. who has ap-
peared on the same card with tne
sailorman only once in several years,
That night Sharkey ended Maloney S
bid for heavyweight fame with a knock
out.
The big Argentine, Victoria Campolo
also is slated to 60 on the same card In
another 1O-round struggle. The most
likely opponent for Campolo Is Tommy
LouEhran, whom Sharkey polished on
in workmanlike fashion in the biggest
outdoor bout of the past season. 1t was
definitely decided today that neither
Tuffy Griffiths, the Sioux City young
ster. nor Primero Camera, the
rambling alp" from Italy, will take any
active part in the big Midwinter SHOW
Two incidents of interest to the gen.
eral situation are scheduled for this
week. Bill Carey, president of the gar
den since the death of Tex Richard and
co-director with Jack Dempsey OF the
first battle under Miamfs palms, VIII be
rendered a testimonial banquet by the

The following day Phil Scott Is sched-
uled to sail from England, arriving here

A NNAPOLIS. Md, January H.
~ The Naval Academy today an
nounced q schedule for its foot
ball team for next season. in
Guiding 10 games, 6 Of which are
against teams Of high standing IN the
foot ball world, while some of the 9TH
ers cannot be regarded as easy contests
The task which the Academy foot ball
team has taken upon itself will, IN fact
require it to keep on edge during the
whole of the season II it Is to acquit
itself creditably.
Coincident with the announcement OF
the schedule came a statement from
Comdr. Jonas H. Ingram, director OF
athletics, in which the crucial points
of the Naval Acadeny's foot ball policy
were indicated
OF outstanding interest in this con-
nection was the statement that the
Naval Academy and the University OF
Pennsylvania had practically decided
to regard themselves for an indefinite
period as special foot ball rivals, the
latter playing Cornell in secondary
position, and taking the place OF the
Military Academy so long as relations
between the service schools remain
strained. It was understood that
either could make a change If 1t wished
and that the renewal Of athletic rela-
tons between the service schools woulc
cause their game to be placed in the
final position on their schedules.
Maryland, G. w. Listed.
Georgetown does not appear on thu
Nays schedule for next year, but the
University Of Maryland and Georg'
Washington do. The former will givI
the Navy its big home game on Novem'
Der /, while the Hatchetites play thu
last game on the Navy grounds, thu
date being November 20. Also the
George Washington Freshmen oppos,

Thanksgiving day.
The Naval Academy Plebe team ha;
also branched out, six games, all agains
teams OF standing, having been sched'
uled for It,
Comdr. Ingram also stated that ar
understanding existed with the Prince
ton officials that the foot ball teams
would meet regularly, the game to be
played at about midseason. It was also
stated that the naval team would play
Ohio State at Columbus in 1881.

after being cautioned about this
fault they are likely to go to the
other extreme.
Practice alone will teach each one
Just the amount of flrmness to use

many buffers get into the habit Of
gripping too loosely.
