ELEVEN PLAYERS VIE IN TT

Latest British exchanges at hand show
that the annual summer meeting OF the
British Chess Federation was held at the
town hall OF Chester according to schedule
IN spite OF the war. No doubt, inasmuch
as the theatres and other places of amuse-
ment were running as usual all over the
British Isles. the chess players thought
that their annual enjoyment should not
( be irterfered with either. Although the
final results OF the meeting have not been
received the exchanges state that the
following players were represented In the
championship tournament: J. II. Black
burre. ]. Gunsberg. II. T.. Lean, a. LOOMS
j. II. Parrey, DIR. Schumer, X. II. Scott
NJ Sparkes. W. s. Viner. the Australian
champion: C.. Wardhaugh. vino however

championship title

gle. J. Mahood. II. p. Michel and o. G.
Mueller were absent Dr. j Schumer. G.
Wilkes and c. Wardhaugh were promoted
10 the championship class from the open
major class. The last named though
tailed also TO present himself for play IN
the second round and hence Il must be
assumed that this player too will he an
absentee also for the rest OF the con-
TEST IN which eleven players only are
competing. The entries for the other
tournaments also are much smaller than
In previous years and hence the war
after all lessened the success OF the con-
grcss.
There are ten women playing IN the
women's championship tournament and
like number engaged In the major open
tournament
As reported last week y. r. Jefferson
of Memphis, Tenn. and C II. VOL
brecht of st. Louis. l.. T. Schradcr
OF syracuse and Herman Hahlbohm OF
Chicago were tied in the championship
tournament OF the Western Chess Assoc!a-
ton played at the Business Mems Club
AT Memphis. Tenn, and they had to play
another tournament. in which each man
had 10 play two games with every other
player. This contest resultef in Jefferson
and Wolbrccht winning -four games, each
losing two; Hahbohm winning two and
losing three. Schrader winning one and
losing four Another tie match became
necessary between jefferson and VOL
brecht, in which the former came out
victorious. beating his adversary by two
and half games TO one and a half
After they had drawn the first game
Nolbrecht won the second and jefferson
won the third and fourth games. thus
remaining the champion and becoming
the permanent owner of the championship
cup. Following are the scores made by

\ little dispute that came up in a bust
ness house In New England not long ago
has sugs stcd to one of THE SuN's read
ors The following problem.
Brown and White borrowed equal sums
OF money ON different quarter days, these
days being the first OF January, April
July and October Brown was the first
borrower On January /. 1914. each paid
his principal and half his accrued simple
interest at per cent. This amounted
t. 5000 Each gave a note for the bali
auce Of interest
Tho sum Of s3.03O. paid on January l.
1914. was Sji less than the entire prin-
oipal and interest on both loans on Jan
uarX !, 1910. Browns interest was
double Whites when Whites was as much
rs Browns was when White borrowed
But Whites interest was two-thirds OF
Browns when It equalled what Browns
was when Whites was half as much as
Browns.
The problem is to discover. from the
foregoing data. the date OF each loan. the
length OF time each loan had to run to
January /. 1914. based on the shortest
possible time for Brown and the face OF
each note.
