The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-04-28

One of the most surprising inci- dents to occur at the Brooklyn Y. M. c. A. during the past several months happened last night when Marty O'Brien, one of the city's out standing checker players, invaded the section and defeated 18 players at one sitting. The opponents took their places in line and each went the way of his predecessor.
 The appearance of MT. O'Brien has been expected for some time and all of his opponents of last evening were right up on their game. He has been invited to re- turn again.
 The appearance of the checker champion was a part of the W.P.A. educational program being con- ducted in Waterbury under the supervision of Miss Edna Harmon. Tonight's feature will be a showing of motion pictures.
 Plans are in progress for the formation of a Photographic Chem istry club, instructions on model aeroplane construction, volleyball, soft ball, bocci, horse shoe pitching, chess and other interesting features.
 Everyone is welcome to take part in the proposed tournaments and may enroll at the Brooklyn Y. M. c. A. at any time. In the event no supervisors are available, Secre- tary Mel Kelly will be pleased to accept enrollments.
