A tie was the result of the match between the University and Yale chess players held at New Haven in Dwight Hal. The ten games began at 7.30 o'clock with the University men playing "white" on the odd-numbered boards. The last games ended at 11.30 o'clock--the shortest game-having lasted but 20 minutes. If the advantage gained in the two deciding games, on boards 5 and 7 respectively, could have been kept the University team would have won the match by two games, as only one was necessary for a win.
Last year Yale was defeated 6-1, but this year's showing is considered good in view of that fact that so much of the material is inexperienced. The men are showing improvement and by the time the regular schedule begins, Captain Mott-Smith expects to have a skilled group of players. Practice is held every Wednesday evening in the Union, and preliminary matches are held on Friday evenings as opportunity presents. Any University men interested in the game, whether experienced or not, should report to Captain Mott-Smith at one of these times.
