a great competitor. but. his legal
training and natural analytical
ability have enabled him 10 dis
tinguish himself as an eSpounder

Then he began to score fairly we'll
in national events. doing better
and better until he landed the top
spot In the first ten for the season
of l93S-1939. No teacher had bet
ter proof of his ability TO impart
knowledge. as he carried his prize
pupil with him into second place
Mrs. Ralph C Young. Of Philsdel-
phia, who was his partner in sew
eral events The next season she
landed top place in the ranking
first time a woman had done IL.
Having been the leader Ave
years ago, 1t would seem there
was nothing ahead Of him COM
petitively except to repeat. But he
found a way to do II when he
smashed all records by winning
FIVE events The previous record.
was four national events in a sea-
son, by Oswald Jacoby, who had
been the leader for four success
sive years until Mr. Goren crashed
through, being the initial player
to break the monopoly on the top
