nterest in chess, games grows This year, a chess tourna- ment was an addition to ac- tivities at O.H.S. 12 students participated. The activity was developed by Mr. Lippstreu, while playing chess with a stu- dent. When a number of students began to take interest, the tournament took shape. Doug Weems became the tour- nament champion this year by defeating Susan George in the finals. Mr. Lippstreu also added that they hope to have just as many participants next year as they had this year. A game club formed by Mr. Enrst was another addition. The group, which varied from 5-15 met after school and on weekends to play simulation games. The purpose of the club was to bring together com- petitors, for entertainment, and to gain knowledge of history. Planning strategic moves are Susan George, and Chris Bruha. 72 f Chess, Games - N ya W Above: Going for the win is Doug Weems, as Jeff Burton looks on.
