\HE first game in the Alekhine-
Bogoljubow match has been
the subject of considerable
discussion In chass nirnlas In


this game a draw was awarded
that the same position had occurred
twice in the game before. 1t appeared
as If Bogoljubow had an easy win.
He had a rook and three pawns
against Alekhine's rook and one pawn,
and the commentators thought all
Bogoljubow had to do was to sur
render his rook for Alekhine's pawn
and win with his three supporting
pawns.
F. L. Congress in the Washington
Post has questioned the accuracy of
this contention, and there have been
opinions given by chess editors and
others on the subject. None of them
has shown how Bogoljubow could
have won.
The position at the close of the
game was as follows: White (Bogol-
jubow)-K on KB3, r on Obs, P on
KB4, KKt3, KRIS: five pieces. Black
tAlekhine)-K on Q6, r on QR7, P
on QKt6; three pieces. In this posi-
ton it appears as If White has an
easy win. I thought so at first, but
found it difficult, and that it is only
by careful, accurate play that White
can win. We came to the conclusion
that White must not give up one Of

their closest competition from Stan

And there is more than a passing
chance that the Middle West will
threaten with Indiana of the Big Ten
and Kansas of the Big Six, carrying
considerable potential points
Louisiana State and Stanford look
to the same events for most of their
points. Glenn Hardin, the defenders
20-point winner of last year by vir-
tue of first place in the quarter and
low hurdles, will meet Al Blackman,
I. c. A. A. A. A. champion, and in the
low hurdles, Sam Klopstock. another

high barrier event Klopstock Will
stretch his legs, this time against

Hadn't Silver made her hours OF Joy
and misery combined; hadn't that

everything she had ever held dear,
from the kakemona Uncle Tom had
brought from Japan, to her first beau?
She thought of Lon and shivered
slightly, rebuked herself for being

Silver for at least four years. not since
her marriage to Cliff. 1t wasn't likely
she'd be seeing her again, they lived
such different lives.
Yes" she answered Bowen, 81 know
Silver. Why?"
Did you know she was getting a
divorce from her husband?" Bowen
queried.
"I knew she went to Reno soon
after Cliff began losing his money.
I didn't think she was there for her
health"
That's a feline remark" chuckled
Bowen.
Not when you know Silver" pro-
tested Marian. She's been living up
to her name ever since I've known
her"
From what I've read of the young
lady, she should have been called
yellow back or some SUCH" contrib
uted Sanderson. This Reno dispatch
says she was given her divorce decree
this afternoon"
oh" said Marian, shocked in spite
of having expected it.
And then, remembering girls who
had been in the newspaper game as
long as four years must appear to be
sophisticated. she laughed-"The boys
do be- economiZing these days. Get
ting rid of Silver is an economy no
matter what sized settlement Cliff has
made"
She turned to walk quietly from
the room, then outside darted to the
dressing room to run a comb through
her mass Of red gold hair, to pat a
powder puff over the impudent nose,
which defed her attempts at dignity,
and to make few futile attempts to
cover the parade of freckles which
marched across the bridge of that nose
and sprayed fanlike across her high
cheek bones.
She pulled a tailored felt hat over
her hair at a jaunty angle, dashed
out of the room and down to the
street entrance, ignoring the eleva-
tor. There she assumed the nom
chalance of her chosen profession and
sauntered onto the street.
And then her recently assumed non-
chalance dropped from her shoulders
like a storm blown cape. The space
before Tony Gazetti's flower stand
which had harbored Lon Casad's car
was empty and Tony's new audience
