tured the Atlantic National Bridge
Championships. The famous four
aces team of Michael Gottlieb, Da-
vid Burnstine, Howard Schenker'
and Oswald Jacoby annexed the
world's bridge championship in a
300-hand match at Madison Square
Garden against a picked team of
European players. This quartet
was broken up by the elimination
of Gottlieb, who was replaced by
B. J. Becker. Gottlieb and his wife
annexed the mixed-pair title of the
Atlantic National bridge cham-
pionships. The East-West world
bridge Olympic championship for
1936 was won by Dr. Paul Stern
and Dr. Paul Kaltenegger of Vien-
na while S. Rivlin of Cardiff,
Wales, playing with Captain W.
H. Ricardo of the same city, tied
for the North-West title.
CHESS
The chess year opened with the
.winning of the world's chess cham-
pionship by the Atherican team,
three of which, Reuben Fine, Abra-
ham Kupchik and Jacob Horowitz
were Jews. The third place Polish
team was 100 per cent Jewish, the
players being Dr. S. Tartakower,
Paul Friedman, A. Neidorf and H.
Friedman. Competing in an inter-
national tourney for the first time,
Palestine's chess masters finished
15th. •
Unbeaten in a single match, the
all-Jewish team representing the
A HAPPY NEW YEAR
College of the City of New Yurk
captured the Intercollegiate Chess
League championship for the sec-
ond consecutive year. The all-Jew-
ish team of New York University
finished second and Yeshiva Col-
lege was sixth. Members of the
City College team were Morton
Hamermesh, Max Pavey, Robert
Scher, Tobias Stone and Jacob
Soudakoff. In the three leading in-
ternational tourneys at Hastings
and Margate, England, and Mos-
cow, Jewish players scored heavily.
Reuben Fine of New York won the
Hastings tournament in which
Salo Flohr of Czechoslovakia and
Dr. Tartakower of Poland were
second and third, respectively. At
Margate Flohr was the winner, fol-
lowed by Mischa Botwinnik of Rus-
sia. At Moscow Botwinnik was sec-
ond, trailed by Flohr, Lilienthal of
Hungary, Ragosin of Russia and
Locker of England.
In the annual United States
championship, Samuel Reshevsky,
former boy prodigy, won the title
held since 1909 by Frank Marshall,
losing two out of 18 matches. Sec-
ond and third places went to
Arthus Simonson and Reuben Fine,
respectively. The Canadian cham-
pionship was also won by a Jew,
Morris Fox of Montreal.
CRICKET
Joseph Kaplan, one of the lead-
ing cricket players of South Af-
rica, captained the Orange Free
State team in its annual match
with Griquas of Kimberley. Kap-

team, led their team to an easy
victory in the Intercollegiate Fenc-

ment. Gold won the individual epee
title and Lewis took the class B
foils honors. Paul Moss, also of
N. Y. U, captured the class C epee
title. Gold won the national junior
epee championship.
Among the women fencers Hel-
ene Mayer continued to rule the
roost. Offered a place on the Ger-
man Olympic team despite her non-
Aryan ancestry, Miss Mayer ac-
cepted and became the only Jewish
member of the Nazi Olympic team.

FOOTBALL
The pigskin produced tremendous
crop of first rate Jewish players
during 1935, many of whom at-
tained regional ratings. But none
reached the heights of a Benny
Friedman, Harry Newman, Arnold
Rosenberg or Fred Sington. The
cream of Jewish gridmen was
found on the Seven Arts Feature
Syndicate's Jewish All-American
team, the members of which for
the first time in history received
official recognition in the form of
gold footballs presented by the
Jewish war veterans of the United
States. Ten colleges and every sec-
tion of the country except New
England and the Rocky Mountain
area were represented on this
mythical all-star Jewish 11. The
Jewish all-Americans were Bell of
Marquette, Klein of N. Y. U., Mer-
lin of Vanderbilt, Shper of Wash-
ington, Gilbert of California, Trell
of Virginia, Patt of Carnegie Tech,
Machlowitz of N. Y. U., Mintz of
Tulane, Friedman of Rice and
Smokier of Temple. Other out-
standing Jewish college players
were Rosenthal of Carnegie Tech,
Stawisky of California (Los An
geles branch), Perretz of Chicago,
Goodman of Duquesne, Adelman of
Northwkstern, Sklar of Kansas,
Isseks of Syracuse, and 'Kolker of
George Washington.
Three of these, Perretz, Klein
and Sklar, stood well up in the
voting for the all-star football
team.
In professional football there
was quite an increase in the num-
ber of Jewish players, so much as
that for the first time it was pos-
sible to select a Jewish all-pro
eleven. Members of this mythical
team were Singer of the N. Y.
Giants, Gordon of the Chicago Car-
dinals, Kaplan of the New York
Giants, Barrager of the Green Bay
Pacqers, Handler of the Chicago
Cardinals, Kahn of the Boston Red
Sox, Schneidman of the Green Bay
Packers, Newman of the New
York Giants, Grossman of the
Brooklyn Dodgers, Gdldenberg of
the Green Bay Packers and Wein-
stock of the Philadelphia Eagles.
Benny Friedman, the only Jew-
' ish college coach, was re-engaged
for another year by City College.

HORCE RACING
one of the three American mem-
bers of the International Olympic
Committee, created a stir by warn-
ing the Jews that their opposition
to the Olympics was stimulating
anti-Semitism in the United States,
Ernest Lee Jahncke, another mem-
ber of the International Commit-
tee, joined the forces opposed to
participation.
For a time it appeared as if the
fight against the Olympics in the
United States would cut the Amer-
ican team in half. A fortnight be-
fore the team was scheduled to sail

campaigning, which included de-
mands for funds from cities, ath-
letic clubs and the athletes them-
selves enough money was raised to
send a full team to Germany.
A similar campaign against the
Olympics was waged in Europe.
In England, Holland, Fri n c e,
Spain, and the Scandinavian coun-
tries there was a tremendous senti-
ment against participating in the
Berlin games. Camada too seemed
inclined to boycott the Olympics.
Ultimately, however, only Spain
and France refused to send official
teams to Berlin. Both countries ap-
propriated funds for unofficial
teams and at the same time gave
large subventions for official teams
OLYMPICS CONTROVERSY
Almost all other sports events
were overshadowed last year by
the controversy over the Berlin
Olympic Games. Notwithstanding
reiterated promises by Cermany
not to discriminate against non-
Aryan athletes, the anti - Nazi
forces throughout the world fought
hard to have the Olympiad moved
from Berlin, and failing In that to
keep a number of countries from

carried on in the United States

HANDBALL
Handball championships last
year were an exclusive Jewish af-
fair. Dave Margolis of New York
gained the distinction of being the
first one-wall player ever to hold
all three major singles titles at the
same time by winning the metro-
politan, New York State, and na-
tional singles titles in addition to
a successful defense of his one-wall

leading winners, Ira Ilanford be-
in a nation-wide effort to get the
Amateur Athletic Union's conven-
tion on record as opposed to send-
ing an American team to Berlin.
A dozen regional associations of
the A. A. U. voted against parti-
cipation and when the national
convention convened a bitter fight
ensued. After three days of wrang-
ling, debate and recrimination the
convention disposed of the issue by
the narrow margin of less than
three votes. No direct vote was
taken on the question of partici-
pation but with the help of affili-
ate organizations entitled to vote
at the convention, the A. A. U.
tabled the entire issue.
The outcome of the convention
battle spurred the foes of Amer-
ican participation to renewed et-
forts. Jeremiah T. Mahoney,
spearhead of the fight, waged a de-
termined battle. Charles Ornstein,
one of two Jewish members of the
American Olympic Committee, was
ousted from the committee for op-
posing American participation.

the golfing world that in 1937 he
