Leyden, Oct, 22 The eighth game of the chess tournament for the world championship between Dr, Alekhine and the title holder Dr. Euwe, of Holland, was won here by the former. The pace of the game was extremely fast and Dr, Euwe seemed at times to be making moves without giving them sufficient consideration, He acknowledged defeat after the 26th move.
Dr. Alekhine is now leading by 5 points to 3.—Trans-Ocean.
The real interest in the fight commenced when Dick Harris was left in the ring with Petersen and Kutt and although it was really a two against one affair, Harris managed to dislodge both of them from their ponies. Kutt was the first to go, followed by Petersen, who asked for two "times out", the first to pick up his hat and the second to fix his cuff links, Prizes were presented by that popular sportsman Mr. Fred Siemssen at the rounding off of and excellent gymkhana.
