they steadily slipped back while the
Ffshbein-R Rush pair steadily forged
to the front Five Of the leaders had
entered the finals with a higher carry
over than they, but the fact seemed
to prove no serious handicap to them.
The Washington pair, Mrs. Stockvis
| and AL Roth, which had carryover
| of 1913. the third largest Of any Of
the local pairs, dropped to twelfth
place in the finals with q score Of
1888, more than 81 points below the
winners. In fact, all of the Washing
ton pairs showed less class than they
had displayed in previous events and
the nearest any of them came to the
winners were Mrs. Charles r. Kave-
naugh and Lester D. johnson Of
Arlington, Va, who finished In sixth
place.
New Workers Show Up Well.
Generally. the New York pairs
showed well in the tabulations. In
the speculation little chance was xtven
to the Slutt-Latter pair. although they
had played strong game in the first
sessions. When they won second place
there was not little surprise on the
part of most of their adversaries. Mrs.
Edith Russell of New York and Fred D.
Kaplan of New York gave an excellent
exhibition of good playing to win third
place with score of 2946, and the
same may be said of the game of Mrs.
r. c. Young of Bywood, Pa, and c. H.
(fOrpn
was 285.2. Mrs. Young was one of the
members Of Mrs. James H. Lemons
team, which won the women's team
of-four championship, bringing to
washington its first national tourna-
ment contract trophy.
Another of the surprises of the event
and also a disappointment to their
washington friends was the slump of
Maj. and Mrs. Deitz of New Cumber-
land IN the finals. They had closed
the second session with high score
and had a carryover of 10.l points
so that they seemed to have a chance
to finish among the leaders. However
they finished close to bottom in the
list OF those who qualified. Mai. and
Mrs. Diets formerly lived in Wash
lngton and repeatedly won in local
tournaments.
Inc following is the final score in
the three-session mixed-pair cham.
