BY w. McCALLUM.
~ UT at Congressional, where
handicaps really count on
that lengthy golf course. the
~ boys in charge of rankings
are getting ready for installation Of
a system that appears the best yet
devised for rating a golfer on what
he should do.
A new handicap rack Is being set
up in the golf shop with cards for
each month in the year, each card
to have space for round of golf each
day of each month. The whole idea
is to set up a cross-section of the
average game of every golfer in the
club so each player may be rated on
his average game and not his best
game.
Heretofore handicap systems have
been arranged on the basis Of the best
scoring of the player. The new scheme
will rate the golfer not on his best
game, but on his average game. which
is something altogether apart from his
best game.

The players are in fine fettle: Dr.
Alekhine played for France in nearly
all the matches at Warsaw and DR..
Euwe trained in Holland with two eX-
perts from Austria. In the first game
Euwe adopted the Slav defense and was
defeated in 80 moves. DR.. Euwe turned
the tables in the second game. The
champion played boldly. He lost the
advantage in the early part Of the
game and resigned in As moves. Euwe
is reported to have done some clever
finessing in this game. Two sessions
were required for the second game. five
hours being clocked in the first session.
The third game of the match also
was played at Amsterdam. Alekhine
had first move, and played P-K4. Euwe
played the French defense and ap-
peared to get good development.
However, the champion pressed the at
tack, and when adjournment was had
after five hours of playing he had
gained two pawns. The queens and
two rocks apiece still were on the
board. Euwe resigned on his forty
first turn without resuming play.
Alekhine thus leads by the score of
2 to /.

L furnished two surprises. The
game Of principal interest was between
Martin C. Stark, present champion,
and D. H. Mugridge. Stark did the
unusual by making blunder, which
cost him a rook, and he resigned on

thus retains his hold on first place.
The other surprise was furnished by
F. B. Walker, who made v. L. Eaton
lower his colors. the game going 81
moves and requiring two sessions.
Walker played his favorite, the center
counter gambit. He won a pawn on
his twenty-seventh move and the ex-
change on his thirty-fourth move,
which gave him an easy victory. Eaton
laid traps to win a piece, and also the
queen, but they were ineffective.
