We consider the infinite game where player ONE chooses terms of a stri
ctly increasing sequence of first category subsets of a space and TWO
chooses nowhere dense sets. If after omega innings TWO's nowhere dense
sets cover ONE's first category sets. then TWO wins. We prove a theor
em which implies for the real line: If TWO has a winning strategy whic
h depends on the most recent n moves of ONE only. then TWO has a winni
ng strategy depending on the most recent 3 moves of ONE (Corollary 3).
Our results give some new information concerning Problem 1 of [S1] an
d clarifies some of the results in [B-J-S] and in [S1].
