  NewspaperChessArchiv: This game comes from Brooklyn Daily Eagle, Chess by Hermann Helms, October 02, 1930

"Title for Brooklynite
Harry Borochow, one-time Brooklynite and star player at City College, has achieved new honors in the Far West and now holds the championship of California, in addition to the city title at Los Angeles, where he has resided for many years. His latest achievement was the result of his participation in the annual tournament of the California State Chess Association recently held at the Mechanics Institute Chess Club of San Francisco. Going through undefeated, he finished with a score of 7-1, made up of six wins and two draws. William Lamb of Berkeley won second prize with a score of 5½-2½, and G. S. G. Patterson of Los Angeles, 5-3, captured third. A. J. Fink, ex-champion, could not command his usual form and finished seventh. Following is the score of Borochow's victory over Irving Spero of Venice, formerly of Cleveland, Ohio"
