Intercollegiate Chess.

The American intercollegiate chess team will play a cable match with representatives of Oxford and Cambridge, April 21 and 22. Harvard and Columbia are each to have two men on the team. The third best man at Harvard will then play the third best at Columbia, and the winner of this match must play again with Hunt of Princeton, to decide who shall qualify for the international team.

Columbia's men are Falk, Sewall and Boehm, in the order named. Harvard's representatives have not yet been decided upon. Perry, who made the highest individual record in the intercollegiate contest in December, has left College; Rice has been sick and is unable to play, and Arensberg will probably not come out. This leaves only comparatively inexperienced men for the international team.
