Isaac Kashdan. who successfully
defended his claim to the title of the
Manhattan Chess Club of Gotham.
and Arnold Denker have exhibited
their respective wares in local simul-
taneous matches and so the WASH
ingtonian has definite idea of the
relative strength and canny ability
Of the youthful masters.
In the following game the experts

miral and Seabiscuit. The bidding
will be lively this summer to see
which of the major racing estab-

closest to scheduling such q bril-

A bill that would legalize parl.
mutuel wagering was introduced in
the Virginia House of Delegates last
Monday. Several similar measures
have been presented to the Rich
mond lawmakers in the last few
years only to meet defeat. How
ever. at one time a margin of only
three votes kept the bill from pass
ing and becoming law. I believe
most Virginians are favorable to-
ward q measure that would bring
the racing Of thoroughbreds within
their borders.
In the matter Of turf tradi-
ton no section Of the land can
Outrank virginia.
Many Of this country's finest and
most pretentious breeding estab-
lishments are located there and in
this phase Of the sport Virginia
stands second only to Kentucky
When last bill to legalize horse
racing was being considered in the
nearby State it was proposed to
build a race track near Alexandria.
II this should come to pass, Wash
ington would have another major
race track, possibly even closer to
the District line than either Laurel
or Bowie. However. in this writer's
opinion the chances of Virginia
passing the proposed legislation
practically is zero.
Lapsing OF the Billy Barton
Steeplechase. a spring feature at
