The consensus as expressed in Interviews printed in the first two of a series of artirlrs in The Eagle Tuesday and yesterday was overwhelmingly In favor of retaining the game In its so-called European form, as distinguished from the several Oriental games from which It was evolved. At present the conservatives are presenting a strong front In defense of the gaera they love so well. It remains to be seen what the liberals, not to mention the "hyper-omderns." have to say about It. They are a bit slow in making themselves heard.

Most of them are doubtless stunned by the suggestion, which Is so radical that no one will blame them. At the best one must stop to gather his. wits when faced with the idea of introducing more complications into a game that still mystifies the great ormy of chess devotees, with the exception only of such supermen as Dr. Alekhine.

This is the third meeting between Sammy and Ace. Last year they met twice once in New Tork and once in Los Angeles. In the first battle Sammy earned a technical knockout in seven rounds.

In the dribble attack one prime object Is to get the ball into the passing lanes. The skilled five knows where these are to be found.

Ii order to penetrate the two-line five-man defense by passing, a team must use these lanes, otherwise a passing attack fails.
