This year's Chess Club was unfortunate in losing their long-time advisor and mentor, Mr. Robert Brinker. He was the founder of the club here at Kiski, and guided it for many years, arranging matches with other schools and helping the players to improve their skill at the game. Club membership had remained generally stable for many years, but this year there was a great upsurge in interest in this ancient game, due in most part to the much publicized Fisher-Spassky World Championship match. The club's new advisor, Mr. Porsche, arranged a match with the Kiski Area Chess Team on March 17, which our Kiski team won easily. Wins on the varsity level were recorded by Brungo, Floro, and Seal, with team captain Triana playing the first position to a draw. This was an excellent showing for the team, as this was their first match of the season, and Kiski Area had gone previously undefeated. 130

Under the direction and guidance of Mr. Fabian and Mr. Millar, the Forum was established in cooperation with The International Poetry Forum, Pittsburgh Chapter. Through this international organization, students travel to the regular meetings to listen to the poetry and interpretations of contemporary poets. During the 1972-1973 scholastic year, the purpose of the club was to stimulate the members of the club to appreciate these literary works through interpretation and discussion of our contemporary poets and their works. 129
