By PAUL J. MILLER, Chris Editor. The Stir.

“From varying hues renew the fierce attack, And rush from black to white, from white to black.

By pods invented, and from gods deriv'd: From them the British nymphs receiv'd the gam$, And play each morn beneath the crystal Thame.”

—SI/ William Janet.

Before the Articles of Confederation were written, before the Decla- ration of Independence, before the Constitutional Convention that birthed this vast republic there lived in England a scholar by the name of Sir William Jones, who was fond of chess.

In 1763 he turned to the classics for expression of the demiurge in his soul. As he idly turned the tattered pages of a yellowed tome a poem caught his eye and he paused as he read its title, "Scacchia Ludus." Sir William read on. turning the Latin into English, learning of the fair goddess of chess, Scacchis. a nymph who, according to Vida, was the means of teaching chess to mankind.

Sir william observed that his' Latin translation of "Scacchia Ludus" was by Erskine, in 1736. But it was enough to start him musing, coining couplets, turning blank verse into rhyme.

The youthful scholar wrote on and on. and from his fertile and in-

; genious mind there sprang an Eng- lish imitation of Vida's poetic imag- ery. But his nymph became the Dryad Caissa, and the royal game of chess became a game of the gods who first learned its rules from Mars. Caissa and "British nymphs" brought the game to Merrie Eng- land, whereon the banks of the "crystal Thame" they played each morn.

In 1771, at Oxford. Sir William Jones published a collection of his poems, which for the first time gave the world his romantic conception of how’ chess came to Britain, and from whence the British nymphs ob- tained the game.

His love story of the wooing of the Dryad Caissa (for it is a lay of love and romance' by Mars was

kindly received. His heroine Caissa supplanted Vida's nymph Scacchis and modern chess players universal-

j l.v have accepted Caissa as the ! Muse of Chess.

From "Caissa or ‘The Game of Chess' comes the memorable lines that begin this column. You will enjoy perusing the 177-year-old

: poetic romance of Mars and the Dryad Caissa. as recounted by Sir William Jones, and mentally you will be surprised at its similarity to Shakespeare's love poem, "Venus and Adonis."

“A lovely Dryad rang d the Thracian wild.

Her air enchanting and her aspect mild.

To chase the bounding hart teas all her joy

Averse irom Hymen, and Cyprian boy: Oer hills and valleys was her beauty

tam'd And lair Cnirsa war the damsel nam d Mars raw the maid with deep surprise

he oaz ft Admir d her shape, and every gesture

prais d Now turn to Sir William Jones'

1 “Caissa" for a quickaning of the plot I as contrived by the war god.

Sweepida Shows Way In Bay Meadows By Half Length

Second Money Is Taken

By Omelet; Gate*Goes To Christmas Fund the Aft&ocitted Press*.

SAN MATEO. Calif.. Dec. 7 —

Sweepida, fine California-raised 3- year-oM, captured the $10,000 added Bay Meadows Handicap today over the l'i-tnile route by half a length. Omelet was second and Mr. Grundy third.

The winner, owned by H. C. Hill of Stockton. Calif and ridden by Ralph Neves of San Francisco, led almost all the way. Sweepida was | passed on the stretch run. but re- i gained the lead again quickly and thundered home in front.

A crowd estimated at 20.000 saw the climax race at the Bay Meadows track.

Sweepida paid $3.60. $260 and $2.40: Omelet. $2.80 and $2.60, and Mr. Grundy. $3.

Time for the distance was l:51n3 Seven horses went to the post,

Dandy being scratched. In addilion to the first three finishers they were Arigotal. the joint entry of Diavolo Cliff and Triplane, and Exploded

Sweepida was favorite to capture the event, despite a 123-pound im- post. Neves, an ex-caddy, rated the winner well.

Proceeds of today's card will be I turned over to the Christmas funds of San Francisco's four big daily

I newspapers.

Rossvan's Comment Selections for a Fast Track at Charles Town

BEST BET—KAI-MIN. FIRST RACE—POLYCLETUS,

POMARY, NOTORIETY. POLYCLETUS just failed to

earn the decision in his last ap- pearance under silks and he has trained smartly since arriving at this point. POMARY won at this strip during the summer session and she rates consideration. NO- TORIETY is consistent and he may be hard to defeat.

SECOND RACE — TANTRUM, RELIOUS, LADY ANDY.

TANTRUM has compiled a

fairly consistent record and he appeals to have a bit of an edge over this caliber of opposition. RELIOUS turned in a smart test at this oval last Wednesday and previously ran well at Churchill Downs. LADY ANDY won at Ti- monium and might threaten.

THIRD RACE—JAMES PAL, MIGHTY BUSY, WAR SCARE. JAMES PAL may have W. L.

Tajlor in his saddle, and if this combination materializes they should be the first to pass the judges' stand. MIGHTY BUSY is consistent. She won twice at

Wheeling Downs and last year copped quite often. WAR SCARE scored at Timonium and Bel Air.

FOURTH RACE—KAI-MIN. THIRD TRY, MARTHA'S QUEEN. KAI-MIN always has shown

to good advantage when matched against this sort and he may be a tough customer to turn back. THIRD TRY raced well at Lau- rel and Bowie and he rates stout consideration. MARTHA'S QUEEN just failed in her last at Pimlico.

FIFTH RACE—O PLAY, SHAIL- LEEN. BROILER.

O PLAY jus! missed in her first at this point and a bit of improvement would be sure to land the daughter of Okapi in the charmed circle. SHAILLEEN

won at Narragansett. Havre de Grace and Laurel. She should be a husky threat. BROILER has a corking chance.

SIXTH RACE—SOLDIERETTE, RED WRACK, MAECLOl’D.

SOLDIERFTTE won her first West Virginia start with some- thing in reserve and she appears capable of repeating at the ex- pense of this classy band. RED WRACK packs a powerful wallop in the late stretch and he rates with the leaders. MAECLOUD won both of her Bowie attempts. SEVENTH RACE— ACCIDEN-

TAL OFFICIATE, HA8TY RUTH.

ACCIDENTAL trimmed a good field at Laurel and her best ef- fort might land her the im- portant money here. OFFICIATE has worked well for this engage- ment and he could be hard to dis- pose of. HASTY RUTH has been threatening to come to life and trim a bunch of this sort.

EIGHTH RAC E—G OLD BUCKLE. AMERICAN EM- BLEM. VAN TRVST.

GOLD BUCKLE disappointed In his first at this oval, but he is capable of doing much better. AMERICAN EMBLEM and VAN TRYST for the short end.

NINTH RAC E—C L A P A I R. GOOD WINE. UP8EE- DUTCH.

CLAPAIR always has shown smart speed over this footing and he could be the winner if this substitute is used. GOOD WINE and UPSEEDUTCH for what is left.

Bimelech, Whirlaway i Head Nominees in Widener 'Cap

'Refugees' From Abroad Among 81 Named for Hialeah Classic

B» th* Associated Press.

MIAMI. Fla.. Dec. 7.-The Nation's top money-winning horses and a

scattering of “refugees’’ from the war abroad have been nominated among 81 thoroughbreds for the March 1 renewal of the $50,000 added Widener of 1941 at Hialeah Park

Col. E. R Bradley's Bimelech, topping its own 3-year-old and all other divisions for 1940 with win- nings of $110,005, and Warren Wright's Whirlaway, top of the 2- year-olds with $77,275. head the list of notables named for the event.

Challedon Not Likely to Run. Mighty Challedon. with earnings

of $312,835 in three seasons, also has been placed among the nomi- nees. but he now is racing in Cali- fornia and probably will not partici- pate in the Florida season.

The Widener is scheduled at the height of the winter sports program, just as fashionable Hialeah Park ends its 46 days of racing.

It provides the biggest purse of Florida racing and includes a $5,000 bonus for the trainer of the winning horse. Weights with which the en- tries will be handicapped are to be announced January 3.

The war sends notable contribu- tions to the race. Joseph E. Widener. chairman of Hialeah, has named the French-bred Raphael II, winner of two out of three starts in Fi ance and of three races in this country of the four he has entered.

Heliopolis is Nominated. Elmer Dale Shaffer's Heliopolis

has been placed in nomination Heliopolis was purchased from Lord Derby after placing third in the
