THOUSANDS of visitors at the Gen.

cago. 1888, were impressed with the
rarities of chess on exhibit in the Hall
of Science Building.
Thousands of World Fair sightseers
returned to their homes with the in
tention of learning something about
the game that had such a beautiful
exhibit at the Fair.
Anticipating the favorable reaction
towards chess play at the Chicago
festival, the prior January had wit
messed the birth of two new American
chess publications - Chess Review"
under the direction of Isaac l. Kashdan
Sprang up in the optimum environ
ment of New York City, mecca Of chess
lovers, and 'The Chess Player" news
paper under the editorship of Paul
Miller burst forth in full bloom in the
sunny South, the land of the tempera-
mental chess genius, Paul Morphy.
After two years the Chess
Player suspended publication,
although during its meteoric
rise to prominence it became
the official organ Of every out
standing national chess body,
excepting the National Chess
Federation, U. S. A.
Chess Review, under KaShdan, made
little progress, but earned good will
throughout the country. Then Kash-
dan surrendered his publication to
Israel Horowitz and S. S. Cohen, who
| Immediately made a whirlwind drive
| for increased circulation and got it.
Eventually, the magazine was Endorsed
| by the American Chess Federation as
its ofiicial organ, the Chess Player
having been laid gently to rest.
Today Chess Review, under
Editor Horowitz, has become one
of the leading chess Periodicals
throughout the world. Horo-
witz has made few personal lit
erary contributions to the vast
library Of chess literature ex-
tant, and a. . writer has much
to learn about the scholarly and
popular methods of chess pres
entation for Jawn Public.
But under his tutelage he has
gathered together q fine array of tai
ent, and the future of Chess Review is
indeed bright if not remunerative
one-for the glory of chess is in its
play and study and not in the lure OF
gold. as during the 5000 years of chess
play those who have garnered even
minor fortune as they pursued the
intellectual pastime can be numbered
on the fingers of one hand.

tional Park Seminary, University of

Arlington Hall equitation units. Be-
sides the horsemanship and jumping

dent dressage event confined to a
simple group of maneuvers and the
somewhat more complicated tests Of
an open dressage competition in
which some of the Fort Myer officers

It always has been our contention
that every man or woman who is
teaching q child to ride properly de-
serves encouragement by lovers of
horse sport, even If the instruction is
given for profit.
The promotion of intercolle-
giate horsemanship likewise
merits every possible helping
hand, for here the instructor
works with those who in their
earlier years (the easiest and
best time to learn may have
missed the opportunity to ia
miliarize themselves with equi-
tation.
Thus the young blood which may
have seemed forever committed to the
ranks of some other sport is enlisted
in riding competition, which in turn
leads to the hunting field, the show
ring and the other healthful, exhila-
rating, and, I might say. passionately
absorbing branches of equestrian &C

over the scene pending his public ST.
multaneous chess exhibition to be
given at the Jewish Community Gen.
ter tonight at 8 o'clock.
AS editor and publisher of Chess
Review, Horowitz has been covering
the continent espousing the merits Of
the federation and of its official Or
gan, his publication.
But it is the chess skill of Horo-
witz that attracts our attention.
In New York City exists three out
standing chess clubs which conduct
annual tournaments that rank with
the average national congress of minor
masters. One of these groups is the
Manhattan Chess Club. Horowitz, al
though never a first prize winner at
Manhattan, merited second honors in
the distant past.
In 1926-27, he was q member
of the victorious University Of
New York chess team that won
the Eastern intercollegiate
Team Tournament. The follow
ing year he captained the uni
versity team to score another
collegiate victory.
In the masters tourney at Bradley
Beach, N. j., held in 1927, Horowitz
was runner-up for major honors. In
1881, when the National Chess FEEDER
alton, U. S. A., chose an American
team to send abroad to participate in
the international team tournament
at Prague, Horowitz was one of the
select few. Four years later he again
represented the United States on the
victorious American team that won
the Warsaw international team tour
nament. In recent years Uncle Sam has
not lost team tournament and Horo-
witz has contributed to the establish
ment of this world record for match
team play. In the team Journeys
mentioned, memory has it that the
young New Yorker dropped outright
only two games out of q total of a
played. Truly splendid score against
the great masters Of all nations!
