At assembly February 81, we
were entertained with a moving
picture OF the life of George Wash
ington. The picture was shown by
Percy R. Palmer, the principal OF
Brawley high school. There were
four episodes: first, conquering the
wilderness; second, uniting the COL
onies; third, winning indepeno-
ence; fourth, building the nation.
The picture was educational and
interesting-Milton Damron, 7A-l.

Here is Byler's letter:
Chess Editor,

Some time ago I read in the paper:

G. E. Bishop is president and director
understand, challenging me to 6

champion" OF the District OF Columbia
have been engaged In the Federal EN-
plOyes chess tournament. and have
awaited a communication from Mr.
Hesse or the league.
In May, 1881. Mr.. A. Y. Hesse. as the
authorized representative of the District
Chess League published cOmmunica-
ton In which he stated:
The match tournament now In
progress to obtG IN q challenger for Mr.
Walkers title. is not a league matter
but an arrangement among individuals
Of group to attain the end they seek
namely. by elimination, q challenger.
Their acting together for this pur-
pose is quite laudable and the members
Of this group are to be congratulated
on their activity, yet, the meeting to-
gether in this tournament does not
comprise an oficial action OF the
league which in nowise has taken any
official action to alter the method other
than that set forth above"
That the league had no supervi-
sion or responsibility over the matches
need not be further discussed. Mr.
Hesse, and at one time Mr.. Walker
labored under the impression that the
elimination matches were to secure q
challenger for his title as the holder
of the Turnover Cup" and the winner
Of the proceeding tournament held by
the league for the title of champion
of the District of Columbia" Under
the articles Of donation, the cup Is
not subject to challenge, neither is the
title that goes with it. No match has
ever been played for it,
By reason of Mr.. Walkers conceded
prestige in previous match and tourna
ments. he was given a seeded" posi-
ton and not asked to play in the
eliminations, but allowed to play in
the final match without entrance fee
or previous matches to demonstrate
his ability. The final winner of that
series of matches was announced as the

any participant.
There is nothing in the controversy
except the old argument as to whether

strength Of players and promoting In
terest In the game Mr.. Hesse. in the
article to which I refer, stated the
argument for tournaments as strongly
as it could be put. and the league mas
always sponsored tournaments and no
matches That is an added reason, II
needed, why the league has no claim
to the supervision of matches. There
are many strong players who do not
consider a round robin" tournament
as fair test of relative strength.
For example, In the last league tour
nament for its title the entries were
Messrs. Sournin, Bishop and Jef1ers::
MesSrs. Sournin and Bishop won ana
lost q game to each other. Mr.. Jef1ers
drew a game with Mr.. Bishop. which
made Mr. Sournin the tournament
champion. Had Mr.. Jeffers won one
of his games with Mr.. Sournin 'as
some onlookers thought he would at
one time), Mr. Bishop would have been
the winner Of the tournament. Is
there any wonder that the friends OF
Mr.. Bishop do not consider the out
come of the tournament aS determining
the relative strength Of the two play
ers? I would like to see match be-
tween the two and play the winner.
Mr.. G.. E. Bishop addressed chal-
lenge to me personally and publicly
last year, which I did not and could
not accept. to my regret for personal
reasons. In addition to Carl Hesse,
Messrs. Knapp and Bettinger have in
dicated their desire to have another
try at the title. Mr.. A. c. Often and
Mr.. Sournin have each won tourna-
ments that entitle them to considera-
ton.
I am desirous of defending the t..,le
under the same or similar conditions
Of play. as when / won it. and
shall be pleased to meet the above
gentlemen, and any others who desire
to contest, at the Capital City Chess
Club. Edmonds Building, on Wednes-
day evening. May 81, at o'clock.
