GhB$$ CIllI PSC's Chess Club broke into extramural competition and intramural communi- cation last year and made news in both fields. The pawn and pen pushers won five and lost one of their chess meets with regional colleges and universities. And they played to a no-decision end- ing in their running feud with the Van- guard newspaper. Under the presidency and editorship of Jim Mitchell, the club went into the publicity business with its own flyer, Checkmate, in weekly protest against what it claimed were "Rearguard" news derelictions on all things chess. Along with this, the club put on a varied program of chess tournaments, displays, exhibitions by several chess masters, and twice-weekly sessions of intramural competition in the College Center Ballroom. i '. adl 70
