...problem at first seemed to be one of developing a team out of mediocre material, for with the exception of Campbell and Bowditch none of the squad seemed to show more than average ability. The situation was made the more discouraging because of the lack of spirit and enthusiasm on the part of a majority of the players. The men fortunately got over this indifference and the work progressed more favorably. The problem of picking out a team remained a difficult one, as many of the men showed about equal ability.

It is possible that a series of cup games may be played at the end of the practice...
...prospects of a strong cchss team this year are not very encouraging, and a great effort will have to be made to develop good material. The Chess Club has been greatly weakened by the loss of E. R. Perry '03, and the only men now in College who have had intercollegiate experience are G. E. Hyde '02, Estes '04, and Baker...
