Chess Club Plans

The arrangements for the fall chess tournament are now practically completed, and the details will be announced in a few days. The two winners of the tournament will constitute the Harvard team at the intercollegiate matches in New York, while from the ten or twelve making the best scores, a 'Varsity team will be formed.

Besides the cup for the intercollegiate championship, which Harvard has won for the last five years, there is this year a trophy valued at $1,500, which will be competed for in a cable match between an American college team and an Oxford or Cambridge team.

During this fall and winter there will be team matches at the weekly meetings of the club, when the players present will either be divided into two teams or will be opposed by some "simultaneous" player from Boston. The purpose of this will, of course, be to give members as much practice as possible.
