Jose R. Capablanca, the noted Cuban chess expert who recently returned from a successful European trip, started to play chess at the of four. He is possessed of a mind that works as quickly and unerringly as the shutter of a camera, and to watch him at games—for he is seldom to be seen engaging less than a score of players at one time—one realizes that the comparison is justified.

He is open and ready to defend his title. This is printed for the benefit of some of the faculty of Allen Academy who I think would give Alekhine a tough battle according to their way of thinking.
