Jose Raoul Capablanca, former chess champion of the world, attended Columbia university, where he played a bit of baseball. Capablanca lives in the Buena Vista section of Havana. He now has a job with the Cuban government. I think his title is inspector of consulates and legations. It permits him to travel around the world on an expense account. He might almost as well be a tennis player. Capablanca, a few years ago, won the main prize in the government lottery. As he had sold half of his ticket, his share of the prize, was $50,000.
