past few months ] have spoken to
literally hundreds Of people who
voluntarily assured me Of their in

help. The volume of mail to the
column has quadrupled in the past
three weeks and the notes are full
of inquiries, suggestions. This par
ticular new interest is no whistling

Tonight's tournament is a great
chance for the New York District
