TELEGRAPHIC CHESS

Bledisloe Cup Final When the 20-a-side telegraphic match between the Canterbury and Wellington Chess Clubs was resumed on . Saturday evening play proceeded jnuch more briskly than on the opening night. When the play was concluded at 11 p.in. eight games had been disposed of, as follows:— Bd. Wgtn. C.C. Canterbury C.C. 4 Gyles, A. W. . 1 Smith, R. W. .. 0 5 Steele, J. D. .. 1 Stewart, M 0 6 Beyer, K t Abbott, Mrs. ... J 11 Kelllng, F. K. 0 Lovell-Smith. R. 1 16 Fairburn. W. J. 1 Flood, Rev. C. . 0 18 Godtschalk, R. A. i Hollander, S. .. i 19 Vincent, F. ... 0 King, Miss A. . 1 20 Henderson N. S. 0 Parkins, G. G_. . 1 Total to date . 4 Total to date . 4 An echo of the recent match against Auckland was furnished at board 5, where Steele once more handled an Evans gambit attack with admirable precision. The positions reached in the 12 unfinished games are being thoroughly examined ’by both captains. A cursory glance over them gives the impression that an exceptionally close finish to this match may be looked for when the complete score is available. Any positions on which the two captains cannot’ reach agreement are to be submitted to the ’Dunedin members of the New Zealand Adjudication Board for decision.
