  HeMateMe: Busted hymen, huh?

Is 11...f5 the losing move? Black allows white to have a permanent bind on the center.

  MissScarlett: Pillsbury gave this simul against the eight representatives of Columbia, Harvard, Princeton and Yale, in the evening of New Year's Day, winning all games. That afternoon saw the final round of the second annual intercollegiate tournament, won by the Columbia team of Hymes and Edward William Libaire.

The <New York Times> report of January 2nd, p.6, referred to Pillsbury as <H. V. Tillsbury of Boston>. The games were not blindfold - correction submitted.
