Yesterday’s play at the Harvard school in New York brought to a conclusion the most exciting struggle for the possession of the challenge cup that has yet occurred in the history of the intercollegiate chess tournament. Harvard, last year’s champion, again captured the trophy, this being the second time the feat has been accomplished by players from the Cambridge university. Columbia has had the cup two years also, while neither Yale nor Princeton have yet won this honor in the field of chess.
Harvard’s representatives, A. W. Ryder and E. E. Southard, after a week, of hard chess play and conscientious effort, had the satisfaction yesterday of landing their alma mater a winner by half a point ahead of Columbla, who, up to the very last monment, had been looked upon as sure to at least tie the Crimson's experts. As it was Columbia lost by something very like a fluke, for the defeat of Price at the hands of Seymour was wholly the result of an i11 advised move of the king. Seymour, by the way, loomed up big and dangerous near the last, he defeating Ryder at Tuesday, and had it not been that he was hampered with an utterly useless partner Princeton might have had something to say as to where the cup should go.
The best indidual playing was done by Ross of Columbia, who drew two of his games and won the balance. Ryder, Harvard, would have had a clear score but for his defeat of Seymour's hands, and he comes second with four and one-half victories. He is followed by his mate, Southard, who tied for the third best score with Seymour, each having won four out of the six games played. Yale's players were not of much account, and their best efforts did not avail to keep their college from bringing up the rear, half a point behind Princeton.

0 games, - 5th Intercollegiate Chess Tournament
Beginning on Monday, December 28 there will be held at the Columbia Grammar School https://www.openstreetmap.org/?mlat...
in New York City the fifth annual intercollegiate chess tournament between Harvard, Yale, Columbia and Princeton. The first of these tournaments occurred during the Christmas holidays of 1892, the idea of holding them having been originated by Mr. E. A. Caswell, of Yale '66. Through the instrumentality of Mr. Caswell, a championship cup has been offered to the college winning the championship for ten years. This cup weighs about seventy-five ounces, and is fourteen inches high. The back of the vase has black shields for the inscription of the names of the competing colleges, with dates and scores of tournaments. This cup was purchased from Tiffany and Co. at a cost of $400. Each member of the winning team also receives a silver medal on which is engraved his name and the date. At the tournament of 1892, Hymes of Columbia made the best individual score, and the Columbia team won the tournament. In 1893, Hymes of Columbia again made the highest individual score, and Columbia again received the cup for a year's custody. In 1894, Ballou and Van Kleeck of Harvard tied for the highest individual score, and Harvard won the tournament. In 1895, Ross of Columbia made the highest score, though Harvard won the tournament.
The tournament this year will be under the immediate control of Mr. Caswell. Play will begin each day at 2.30 P. M., and if the games are not decided by 10.30 P. M., they will be judged by the referees, who will this year be Mr. Samuel Lloyd and Mr. Eugene Delmar. Each player plays one game with each other contestant, and fifteen moves must be played within the hour. [[P121]] The preliminary college contests for the chess tournament, at Christmas, are now almost completed.
Contestants from Princeton will be taken from H. L. Bassett '98, M. D. Morehouse '98, <E. B. Seymour '98> , J. A. Ely '98, <W. W. Young '99>, H. J. Brandt '00, F. W. Jarvis '00, C. W. Gordon '99, W. L. Johnson '97.
The contestants from Yale will be chosen from <F. A. Lehlbach '98>, H. C. Robbins '99, L. A. Cook '00, C. F. Andrews '00, <W. M. Murdoch '98 S>.
Contestants from Harvard will be chosen from W. C. Arensberg, '00, C. L. Barnard '97, C. H. Dunn, Medicine, E. P. Fay, Law, H. C. Ffoulke '98, J. Hewins '98, <A. W. Ryder '97>, <E. E. Southard '97>, F. E. Thayer '99.
The contestants from Columbia will be chosen from J. Eskins, College, M. R. Moffatt, College, G. R. Jacobus, College, J. C. Knapp, College, E. G. Leneck, College, <G. Parker, College>, <A. W. Parker, Jr., Mines>, G. O. Seward, Mines, Kroeber, Philosophy, <A. M. Price, Law>. [[P108]] <Round 1> see The Sun. New York, 1896-12-29, p. 4. https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/...
The fifth annual Intercollegiate tournament between two students from Columbia, Harvard, Yale, and Princeton universities began at the Columbia Grammar School, 34 and 30 East Fifty-first street, yesterday afternoon. With the exception of George O. Seward of Columbia all the originally selected players were present. ln the place of Seward A. M. Price, who represented Columbia last year, was substituted.
The teams were made up as follows:
Columbia—A. W. Parker and A. M. Price.
Harvard—A. W. Ryder and E. E. Southard.
Yale—F. A. Lehlbach and William M. Murdock.
Princeton—E. B. Seymour and William W. Young.
Of these five have contested in previous intercollegiate tournaments, while it was the first appearance of Parker, Lehlbach, and Young. Parker has a good record, winning second prize in the annual championship tournament at Columbia. Lehlbach comes from Yale with a high-class reputation as a player, while Young is considered to be one of Princeton's strongest players. He won the annual handicap of the university last Spring, and tied for second prize in the championship tournament in the fall.
The Harvard team is composed of the same men who won the Intercollegiate championship last year.
Considering that some of the players have had good practice, the Columbia and Yale men being coached by <Pillsbury> and <Major Hanham> respectively, it was generally expected that the quality of the play would be superior to that in former tournaments.
E. A. Caswell is the honorary manager of the tournament, and T. R. Stark the director of play. There was a large attendance of local chess magnates present, including H. N. Pillsbury, J. W. Baird, Eugene Delmar, Major J. N. Hanham, J. Feibel, champion of the Metropolitan club, L. Hein, and Edward Hymes.
B. H. Campbell, principal of the Columbia Grammar school, in an address of welcome to the students, expressed the hope that even the losers would be worthy of praise at the close of the tournament. … <Round 2> see The Sun. New York, 1896-12-30, p. 4. https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/...

For the third consecutlve time Harvard University won the Intercollegiate chess championship yesterday after the fifth round had been played. Although the tournament is not ended, the Crimson's record of eight wins cannot be equalled. … … As Parker was sick from the mental and physical strain of the tournament, his place was taken by his brother on Friday, … [P122] <Round 6> see The Sun. New York, 1897-01-03, p. 8. https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/...
The fifth annual intercollegiate chess tournament ended at the Columbia Grammar School yesterday. Harvard winning with ten games; Princeton second with five and one-half; and Columbia and Yale tying with four games.
During the afternoon play was stopped for a few minutes in order to allow W. F. Freeland of Harvard school to present the cups to the Harvard University representatives. After Southard had responded to the congratulatory remarks of principal Freeland. E. A. Caswell, the honorary manager of the tournament, presented medals to the Harvard men for having made the best individual scores. … … Although the Harvard players showed superiority over the other contestants, all the matches were close and interesting and the quality of the play throughout was very high. The work of Princeton's representatives was excellent, considering the fact that they had received no special coaching, and Young, by defeating Ryder, won one of the two games lost by Harvard. [[P122]] . <COMMENTS ON COLLEGE CHESS.> — In a recent interview, Mr. E. A. Caswell, the honorary manager of the intercollegiate chess tournament, expressed his opinions on chess in general and on the sources of weakness among the colleges. His remarks in substance were: "If there is any game which denotes true intellectual development and careful mental training that game is chess. This fact does not seem to be generally recognized among college students. A few years ago the game was not uncommonly ridiculed and this idea seems now to exist to a certain extent.
The importance of athletics should be in no way under-rated, but should athletics be considered of so much more importance than a game which requires intellect alone ? A man is supposed to go to college for mental development, chess is a most excellent test of this, while football, rowing and other sports are not. The fact is that the colleges, as a whole, do not support their teams.
If a half of the enthusiasm and spirit which are displayed towards athletes, were extended toward the chess teams, the clubs would have more financial support. This would secure the services of a competent coach and would also cause stronger competition for places on the teams."
In speaking of the tournament he said: "Better chess was played this year than last, or in any of the preceding contests, and more general interest was taken. Over one hundred tickets were sold and many complimentary tickets were issued.'' [[P133]] table[

Tho sixth annual intercollegiate tournament between students of Columbia, Harvard, Yale, and Princeton universities began yesterday at
the Columbia Grammar School https://www.openstreetmap.org/?mlat... in the presence of a large gathering of local chess players. As in former years, the arrangements were all that could be desired. Edward W. Libaire and Joseph M. Proskauer acted as director of play.
Manager Caswell is responsible for the novel idea of assigning to each board an official score keeper, who has also to act as timekeeper. The contestants are therefore better able to do justice to themselves, by having to pay attention to the game only. Such things as keeping score and looking for the time are apt to spoil good play.
The tournament is played in a large class room, the students being seated at four separate tables. On each table are placed two neatly printed cards with the names of the players and the university they represent. On the southern wall of the room are giant blackboards, upon which are written the pairing, the openings, the number of moves and the results of the games. Eaoh visitor will receive the printed schedule of all the six rounds. It will thus be seen that everything has boon provided for the comfort of the principals as well as for the onlookers.
B. H. Campbell, the principal of the Columbia Grammar School, opened the proceedings yesterday with a speech ot welcome to the players, and without much further ceremony they were ready tor business. G. R. Jacobus of Columbia had to take the place of Seward, who failed to appear. <Round 2> see The Sun. New York, 1897-12-29, p. 4. https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/...
Before the adjournment at 6 o'clock both of the Harvard men had disposed of their opponents, and by virtue of of this double victory the lead went to Harvard. <Round 3> see The Sun. New York, 1897-12-30, p. 5. https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/...
<Round 4> see The Sun. New York, 1897-12-31, p. 5. https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/...
When play was called at 2 o'clock Dana of Princeton had not arrlved. His substitute Carter, happened to be present and the latter was allowed to take Dana's board, although by the strict letter of the rules the sudden substitution was not permissible. <Round 5 and 6> see The Sun. New York, 1898-01-02, p. 9. https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/...
The intercollegiate chess tournament ended yesterday, and for the fourth successive time Harvard won the cup. She captured ten games and lost only two. Southard, as in the four preceding years, did the lion's share of the work by winning all the six scheduled games, …
To the Editor of The Sun—Sir: We, the contestants in the C. H. Y. P. intercollegiate chess match, beg to express to you our warm appreciation of the full and just criticism and analysis which The Sun has given to our tournament games and especially to thank you for the complete record of them. We believe that the context Is growing in interest, and that this has been greatly aided by the publicity which The Sun has given to our efforts.
Elmer E. Southard and James Hewins, Jr., Harvard; G. O. Seward and A. S. Meyer, Columbia; W. W. Young and D. T. Dana, Princeton; L. A. Cook and W. M. Murdoch, Yale.

<HARVARD WON CHESS>—Sixth Consecutive Victory in the Tournament at New York.
The eighth annual intercollegiate chess tournament, which took place at New York during the Christmas recess, resulted in a victory for Harvard, with Columbia second, Yale third, and Princeton last. This was Harvard's sixth consecutive victory. E. R. Perry '03, by winning four and drawing two of his six games, won the highest individual honors. C. T. Rice '01 tied for third position, with three victories and two drawn games to his credit.
The tournament was held in the rooms of the Columbia Grammar School. Play began on Monday, December 25, and lasted until Saturday, December 30. Harvard and Columbia were so evenly matched that the result was in doubt until the last game had been played. Harvard led until the third round, when victories by Falk (C) and Sewall (C), and an adjourned game between Rice (H) and Hunt (P) gave Columbia the lead. The Rice-Hunt game was later adjidiciated in favor of Harvard and, by the fifth day's play. Harvard had again taken the lead which she successfully held until the end. … At a meeting of the players held on December 30, the rule relating to the number of years which a player is allowed to compete was changed from five to four years, in order to place the contestants in the chess tournaments under the same eligibility rules as those of other intercollegiate contestants. A resolution was also adopted to ask the Board of Directors to consider the advisability of altering the rules in order that each college should be represented by four men instead of two and that the tournaments should then be played in teams, to be concluded in three days instead of six. Falk and Sewall of Columbia were selected to make the necessary arrangements for the cable match against Oxford and Cambridge to be played next spring.

1 game, 1899 - Amsterdam VAS Winterwedstrijd 1921/22
1921-10-15 - At the autumn meeting of the V.A.S. held on Saturday evening, it was decided to invite Master Maroczy and Dr. Olland to take part in the winter tournament. For the first group already signed up: M. Euwe, L. Gans, H. van Hartingsvelt, Justus Meyer, W. A. T. Schelfhout, H. Weenink, while for the remaining five places the Board has chosen from the many applicants Messrs: G. Kroone, Dr. Beffie, Dr. C. Carsten and J. Boedijn.

1921-11-15 - The V.A.S. winter tournament promises to be very interesting this time. Master G. Maroczy and Dr. A. G. Olland are participating in the main class as guests, as well as the ordinary members: M. Euwe, H. v. Hartingsvelt, G. Kroone, J. Boedijn, H. Weenink, J. Meyer, Dr. B. Beffie, W. A. T. Schelfhout, Dr. C. Carsten and L. Gans. (Probably the latter is prevented from taking part, in which case the Dutch player J. Davidson will play in his place). It is of course a special attraction that the grandmaster Maroczy, who stays in Holland this winter, has agreed to play. The games are played very keenly and seriously, as can be seen from the games below.

Maroczy, who is in terrific form, is shuffling his opponents soundlessly so far. He and Euwe are still undefeated. Olland did not perform much yet. He lost to Maroczy and Weenink.

7 games, 1921-1922 - Boston v. New England 1905
ALL BOSTON VERSUS NEW ENGLAND.
One of the largest gatherings of chess players ever brought together in Boston witnessed the struggle for supremacy between teams representing Boston and vicinity and the rest of New England at the rooms of the Boston Chess Club, 241 Tremont Street, on May 30. Boston won by 29 games to 11, the winning team being headed by such well known players as John F. Barry, A. M. Sussmann and Dr. E. E. Southard. Advantage was taken of this auspicious occasion to form the New England Chess Association, with E. R. Blanchard, of Providence, R. I., as president and G. H. Walcott, of Boston, as secretary and treasurer. It is intended to hold two sessions annually, one in the early summer and another during November or December. The next match between Boston and New England has been slated for April 19, 1906. One hundred members were enrolled. Among the visitors was the veteran Miron J. Hazeltine, chess editor of the New York Clipper.
<Guess the missing game> A Special prize was offered for the best game at the "Danvers Opening," viz., 1 P–K4, P-K4; 2 Q-R5, which will probably go to Dr. E. E. Southard, the noted ex-Harvard champion, who adopted it successfully against his opponent.

One member of the CHRONICLE Staff , Mr. F. M. Teed, is not in accord with his brother editors in reference to recent editorial remarks in the CHRONICLE, concerning the Henderson-Gossip claim. He thinks that the claim of Mr. Henderson should have been overruled by the conductors, and that Mr. Henderson should not have made the claim. We are sorry to have to announce the retirement of Mr. Teed from the CHRONICLE Staff on account of these utterances.

We have to announce the resignation from the CHRONICLE staff of Mr. C. Schubert. Mr. C. Schubert is the real founder of the CHRONICLE, and nearly all the heavy expenses of starting the Magazine have been cheerfully borne from his private purse. Now that the CHRONICLE is a fairly established and recognized organ, he feels that the increasing cares of growing business, combined with the circumstance of the removal of his residence to the suburbs of Brooklyn, renders it impossible for him to continue his active interest in CHRONICLE editorial management.

0 games, - Hamburg 1885
1 game, 1885 - Intercollegiate Chess USA
The project of an annual intercollegiate chess tournament was realized by E. A. Caswell, Yale '66. He collected $400 donations from graduates of Harvard, Columbia, Princeton, and Yale for a silver challenge cup, a die for striking medals, and a handsome book containing the deed of gift that will later contain the records of the tournaments. The cup, with the motif of two men playing chess in colonial costume, was designed and manufactured by Tiffany, weighs about 75 ounces and is 14 inches high. The deed of gift was issued and executed on September 1, 1892.
Until 1895, competition for the trophy was limited to Harvard, Princeton, Yale and Columbia. Thereafter, other colleges could participate with the unanimous consent of the "C. H. Y. P." colleges (i.e. never).

El 1º del corriente, según estaba anunciado, ha tenido lugar en los hermosos salones del Casino Español, la primera partida de esta interesantísima lucha de ajedrez. La concurrencia era tan numerosa como escogida. A las dos de la tarde el señor doctor D. Antonio Jover, á nombre de la Directiva del Club de ajedrecistas, pronunció algunas palabras—tan oportunas como elocuentes, que fueron muy aplaudidas—sobre la importancia del match que estaba llamado á decidir quién debía titularse Campeón del Mundo en el difícil y noble arte de Ruy López y de Morphy. …

PRIZE PROBLEM. Composed by SAMUEL LOYD for the Solving Tourney of the New York State Chess Association, February 23, 1891. White to play and mate in three moves. First solved by C. W. Eccles in 48 min [(1)]. Solution: https://www.yacpdb.org/#210056
<New York State Chess Association Report> [(1)]
The present year has witnessed two of the most successful tournaments ever held; the first in New York city, and the second at Skaneateles. On January 28, President Bruel appointed the following special committee to arrange for the thirteenth annual tournament: F. G. Janusch, chairman; Dr. F. Mintz, E. A. Ford, Sidney Rosenfeld, H. H. Schieffelin, Fred'k Rose, E. S. Gilley, A. B. Hodges, H. J. Rogers, Carl Nanz, F. Proeshold and A. H. De Freest. The committee secured No. 54 Union square again and revised the playing rules.
<RULES FOR ONE-DAY TOURNAMENTS.>
1. The entrance fee shall be one dollar, payable before the commencement of the tournament.
2. The tournament shall be played on even terms. The players shall be paired by the committee, by lot, for the first round; and by pairing the pairs, by lot, winners with winners and losers with losers, for the subsequent rounds.
3. After losing two games, players must retire from the tournament.
4. The players must always draw for first move.
5. The time limit shall be thirty moves per hour and shall be regulated by stop clocks; any player exceeding his time limit shall forfeit his game.
6. If any game results in a draw, the player who had the second move shall elect which one shall continue as the winner; and both players shall participate in any prize won by either in the following ratio: the actual winner of the prize shall receive two parts, and the silent winner one part.
7. The winner of each game must furnish the committee with a correct score.
8. Play shall begin at 10 o'clock A. M. and continue until 1 P. M., and shall be resumed at 2 P. M. and continue until 6 P. M. and again from 7 o'clock P. M. to the finish.
9. There shall be three umpires with equal powers, selected by the committee, who shall adjudicate games unfinished at the end of a round. They shall decide all questions arising between players, subject, however, to an appeal to the committee.
10. Play shall be governed by the rules of the Fifth American Chess Congress, except where they conflict with these rules.
11. When only four players remain with clean scores, they shall play off for first, second, third and fourth prizes, winner against winner for first and second prizes; loser against loser for third and fourth. And when only three players remain with one game lost each, they shall be entitled to the fifth, sixth and seventh prizes.
The principal changes in these rules from former years are in rules six and eleven. Under the old plan the silent winner received one-half the prize won. Rule eleven formerly read that when two players remained with clean scores they should play off for first and second prizes; and those who had the next best scores should play off for the remaining prizes or divide them at the discretion of the managing committee. The change worked well and will probably be a fixture.
In point of play the tournament was perhaps the strongest ever held. All the experts were present, and with a very few exceptions no one was below the pawn and move class. The arrangements were perfect and reflected great credit upon the committee in charge. The umpires selected were Mr. S. Loyd , Dr. Fred'k Mintz and A. B. Hodges.

As it was 11 o'clock P. M. when the fifth round began Mr. J. W. Baird proposed a draw, the first and second prizes of thirty-five dollars and twenty-two dollars to be divided, and Delmar to retain the championship. This was agreed to and their example was followed by the other contestants. Messrs. Ford and Simonson received the third and fourth prizes of fifteen dollars and ten dollars. The fifth, sixth and seventh prizes of six dollars each were divided between Messrs. Rogers and Yeaton; Baird, D., and Meyer; Hodges and Hanham. The problem solving prize offered by S. Loyd was won by C. W. Eccles of the Brooklyn Club.
<Press Report> [(2)]
The third annual tournament of the New York state Chess Association, held at No. 54 Union Square on the 23d inst., was the most successful ever organized by that society. Great praise is due to the indefatigable efforts and admirable arrangements made by the chairman, F. G. Janusch, and the secretary, H.J. Rogers. The prizeswere as follows: First, $35; second, $22; third, $15; fourth, $10; and fifth, suxth and seventh $6 each. The following well known players contested: Eugene Delmar, J. W. Baird, S. Lipschutz, D. G. Baird, A. B. Hodges, J. M. Hanham, J. S. Ryan, E. A. Ford, Dr. W. R. Dalton, H. J. Rogers, F. H. Cheeswright, E. J. Kaltenbach, Dr. G. Simonson, Dr. Otto Meyer, W. Holliday, E. Levy, Edward Olly, E. Kemeny, J. H. Fitch, J. W. Young, Theodore Rosenfeld, W. N. Hopcroft, Charles Eccles, G. H. Richards, W. C. Baldwin, A. C. Clapp, E. W. Dahl, W. Timme, F. H. Yeaton, B. F. Wilcox, R. Beranje and B. Simon. In the final result Eugene Delmar and John W. Baird tied for first and secnd prizes, but, owing to the lateness of the hour, Mr. Baird resigned in favor of Mr. Delmar, who was therefore declared champion. EA ford and G. Simonson divided third and fourth prizes, A. B. Hodges and J. M. Hanham fifth and sixth, and H. J. Rogers and F. H. Yeton the seventh.
In the solving tourney Samuel Loyd offered a handsome gold chess badge for the first solution to a problem (which appears at the head of this column), composed by himself expressly for this occasion.There were nineteen competitors, and the correct solution was only given in after the competition had lasted for two hours. The winner—evidently the youngest in the competition—was Charles W. Eccles, a member of the Brooklyn Chess Club.
The judges of unfinished games were Dr. F. Mintz and S. Loyd, and their decisions gave universal satisfaction. At a regular meeting of the committee Charles A. Gilberg was elected president and G. Simonson secretary. <Games> 11 of the 57 games played were published by H. J.
