CHESS Two matches were played in the course of the term. Apart from board eight, the team consisted of players who had all had experience of School chess before. The result of the first match, a 6--2 win over Archbishop Holgate's G.S., was most encouraging, except for the lack of success on the first three boards. This result was almost exactly reversed by Bootham, who beat us 7-1. Carter and Sedman drew, and the rest lost. Special mention must be made of Sedman, who drew both his matches on board two, and Elliott, a newcomer to the team, whose attacking ideas brought him success in the first match and a very close game in the second. Results :v. Archbishop Holgate's G.S. (Away), Won, 6-2. v. Bootham School (Home), Lost, 1-7.

The following team played in both matches :B. W. H. Carter, E. C. Sedman, H. W. H. Unwin, D. T. Sparham, P. S. H. Jesper, D. J. Cook, G. V. Plester, R. A. Elliott.
