Boreham drew his first game with Keenan,althought Keenar should have won a fine ending. Boreham won the second of the pair. Lucas has recovered from his severe cold! and is showing his usual form. He scored! 1$ from Dickson, level with Hanson, and 2 from H. Holden.
Boreham scored 2 each from H. Holden and G. Holden. The brothers Holden are both, good players, but want of practice and the two-move restriction is against Qiem, and they have not so far done themselves justice.

Hansen and) Langston played two draws, as did Hansen, Play in the tourney is continued on Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday evenings.
