CHESS PLAYERS WILL ENTER INTERCOLLEGIATE MATCHES

The Harvard Chess Club will play in a four-cornered match against Yale, Princeton, and West Point from December 28 to December 30. The games will be tabled in the Manhattan Chess Club of New Yor City.

The Harvard representatives in the team-tournament will be: F. R. Chevalier '29, first, B. J. Reines '28, second, G. F. Gravell '28, third, and F. N. Rich '29, fourth. All members will have individual matches with one opponent from the other teams; a game won means a point, 12 points being maximum score that can be accumulated by one team. Three of the men are "lettermen," or veterans who have played in similar contests before.

The odds favor the University outfit, as both Harvard and Princeton defeated Yale at the chess matches during the football season, and Yale succeeded in vanquishing West Point.
