Bird's attack seemed
irresistible.
And the game was drawn after 73 moves.
The games in the amateur competitions for spirit and liveliness
contrasted in many instances with some in the Masters'

them had they reached us a little earlier.
The proceedings of the North of Ireland Congress and its play
were worthy of a special work.
