On Monday 06/11/1933 he gave a 26-board simultaneous display at Leeds, winning 18, drawing 6 and losing 2.
On Tuesday 07/11/1933 he gave a lecture at Bradford, describing and contrasting the styles of play of Alekhine, Capablanca, Nimzovich and Flohr, showing illustrative games.
There followed a three-day trip to Newcastle-upon-Tyne.
He was expected later to visit Huddersfield.
