CHESS Dr. Alekhlne has accepted the Invitation to take part ift the Masters' Tournament at Burne, July 16. At the end of March a small practice tournament was held at Burne, Dr. Alekhlne, Dr. O. Naegell, D. E. Voellmy and P. GygU taking part. The result was that Alekhlne, Naegell and Voellmy all tied with two points each, Alekhine losing to Naegell.
This is the first game that Alekhine has lost in a tournament for some time. The tournament, however, was only a practice tournament and probably the champion experimented in testing out an unsound variation. , The National Hungarian Championship Tournament held at Budapest recenly was won by G. Maroczy with a score of 13. E. Canal scored 12, A. Stciner 11, L. Btelner and A. Lllienthal tied with 104 points. Maroczy did not lose any games, but drew five, wining the balance.
The game now published was played in a recent tournament at Bad Ems. The game is of more than usual interest on account of White's fourth move for the attack. See note below.
