MRS. CRESSER TRIUMPHS IN SIMULTANEOUS CHESS

Moving from board to board in a simultaneous chess exhibition Friday evening in the Lowell House dining room, Mrs. Gisela K. Grosser, Radcliffe '27, United States woman chess champion, won 23 out of 25 games from the best players the Harvard Chess Club could offer.

Circling slowly around the the room, Mrs. Grosser sized up each situation in a few minutes, played and then moved on to the next board and an entirely new setup. Winner of Radcliffe's Charles Eliot Norton fellowship, Mrs. Grosser took up chess six years ago. Last spring at New York, she won the United States Women's Championship by defeating Miss N. May Karff of Boston, former titlist, who held the championship for four years.
