Cal Tech has a photo available for him. It looks small. Click on it, it's much larger than you would use on this page.

  NewspaperChessArchiv: He was very active in chess, up till the time of his death in 1963, is my understanding. This note comes from

San Francisco Chronicle, Chess by E. J. Clarke, San Francisco, California, Sunday, January 29, 1922

"We are obliged to Morgan Ward, president of the University of California Chess club, for the following interesting item: “Last Tuesday evening State Champion E. W. Gruer gave a simultaneous exhibition at the U of C chess club. He played thirteen games; won eleven, drew one and lost one. Play lasted about two and a half hours.” Ward is too modest; he failed to mention that he won the game that Gruer lost. It remained for Gruer to identify the winner. He also forwarded the score of the game which appears below."
