University Chess Tournament Over

The University chess team closed a rather disastrous season last week with the final round of the novice tournament. C.S. Hadley '10 won the match and P.C. Nash '11 was second. The team won the annual match with Yale, six games to four, but got only fourth place in the intercollegiates held at New York and fifth place in the Metropolitan league matches played in Boston. Next season, all the men who played in the intercollegiates will be back and all but one or two of the team that defeated Yale.

Officers for next year have been elected as follows: E.H. Gruening 1M., president; M.V. Ritt '09, vice-president; D.B. Childs '10, secretary; K.S. Johnson 1G., captain; and J.L. Clark 2L., the fifth member of the executive committee of which the officers are the other four members.
