European Record Con-riderrd Such was tbe net result of the 1931 season. While I realise that any ranking, official or unofficial, will be open to criticism, it is my unbiased opinion that tbe list pre sented with this article Is repre sentative. The ranking is based principally on the naticopl championship; the ms'-or eastern tournaments and the Pacific southwest tournament in scuthern California which attracted more leading players than any other championship. In the cases of Shieitir. Wood. Lott and Van Eyn, their European reccrds were taken into consideration- A brief resume of the 10 players ir the list and their records.
