I L. Radies surveys the situation. The Chess team in one of their matches. P. Robinson, T. Painter and J. Painter showing the concentration it takes to win. The Chess team was formed after the introduction of the R.H.S. Chess Tournament in September. Two teams were formed with the best players on the first team. Any of the first five players could be challenged for his position. Our first match came against St. Helens with the first team losing and the sec- ond team winning. Then came games against Clatskanie and Knappa. The first team played and won both contests with perfect 5-0 scores. We entered a ten team tournament at St. Helens and took fifth. Chess games by mail were played with four teams: Scappoose, Woodland, Knappa and Jeffer- son of Portland. We won three of the four by default, with our Woodland game still in progress. We feel our position is good and hope to finish the game next year. 25
