HARVARD DOWNS WEST POINT IN ONE-SIDED CHESS MATCH

Second Victory of Crimson Players In Series Begun in 1931.

In its first match of the year, the Harvard chess team defeated Army by the score of 6-2, last Saturday night in the Lowell House Tower Room. This is the team's second victory over an Army chess team in as many matches; it won two years ago by the score of 7-1.

The number one Harvard man, M.C. Stark '33, defeated Kallman of Army, in exactly 25 moves. The other Harvard players who won their matches were: M. A. Mergentheim, Jr. '33, S. S. Coggan '34, B. L. Bowie '35, and E. W. March and '36. V. L. Eaton '34, and Matheson of Army each received a half point in their match, by virtue of a perpetual check.
