Knights Crowned BY

Chess, anyone? If so, you may
report to Mr.. Knepper and he will
properly suit you in coat of ar
NOR and ready you to do battle
with various other chess addicts.
Due to rising interests in ye olde
chess game, Mr.. Knepper is max
ing an attempt to resume opera
tionS of a chess club which was
abandoned few years ago be-
cause Of a lack of interest. He has
already gathered quite a follow
ing in the Junior High and is now
trying to arouse the interests of
the upperclassmen in such con-
tests.
The current chess club has jour-
neyed to Fremont to enter into
competition there, with the P. c..
enthusiasts doing quite well for
themselves. Any students or
adults interested in venturing in
to this realm of kings, queens,
bishops, knights, rocks, and
pawns should contact Mr.. Knepper
in room 204 There are possibili-
ties of playing chess at noon and
after school in a special room plus
intercity competition with Ere
mont on Tuesday nights if enough
come out. Do not let visions of
doddering old men with long
white boards playing for days at
time on one game sway you
from trying the game. Chess is
really very fascinating and fast
game for all sges.
