CHESS CLUB Checkmate! The Chess Club has probably been in existence longer than any other club at Fox. This group attracts students who enjoy a challenge. You should try it, commented sponsor Mr. Kasey. lt's a game that puts brain against rain. Since there is an absence of 'chance' in the game, the with the best strategy will win. ln recent years the chess team has competed with other schools in the metro St. Louis area of Missouri and Illinois. lt is not difficult to learn, added Mr. Kasey. However, in order to become a strong player 1 one must have excellent self-discipline to think of several moves in advance, and play frequently to learn tournament tactics. The chess club has shown great potential this year. What is outstanding is the large number of girls that have joined and remained active, Mr. Kasey commented. Students can join the chess club any time during the year, so check this one out! Www is ,Mg if Above - Michelle Ambrose Qleftj plots her strategy as Tom Braun watches.

Then l call KRSH with the forecast at 2:45 pm and 5:00 pm. l'm also responsible for reporting the temperature to Channel 2 at 5:00 p.m. The Weather Center was initiated in 1979, and last year the center was placed outdoors between second and third wing. While the club has not kept records on their accuracy in predicting, they are never very far off, said Heidi. ln February when the National Weather Service predicted four inches of snow for the weekend, Heidi recalls that she forecast only flurries. Mr. Vishino teased me about it, but we only had flurries over the weekend! Left - Jerry Miller checks barometric pressure to detect a change in the frontal system.
