Incidentally, we now have a small chea column in the Sacramento Union (Sunday paper) which at present covers only such chess news as wa can rake up and also game scores from our local club and oih-ers. We, sometimes run short of newi and material but have made out so far. Chess activities In general seem to be faring well In Northern California even in these times, Intercity matches ar few but will become mora plentiful after the war. I have been making tentative Plans lor a tournament to decide a North ern California champion each year, tournament to be held in Sacramento and including everyone from about Stockton north. This Idea has gone over well everyone I have approached, but, of course, nothing can be done until the war is won.
Also hope to get some sort of a ehes league to working for the clubs up her to sponsor tournaments and matches, I feel there Is far from enough chess activity in California to satisfy those of us really Interested in the game, hence my efforts at promoting it. I haven't the slightest idea of what goes on down south, but due to your column and the larga clubs in the heavily populated dlstrlcta I believe there la plenty of varied cheaa activity. If we can get more interest and activity up here in the next lew years, then Join that with your activity n the south, chess can really ba built up to something In the State. I have a - set of chess type for the newspaper on the way and we soon will have a problem or end game each Sunday, which will lend a more chesslfled air the column. Also our 1943 championship tourney starts on Nov. 4, with 16 entrleg MORE POWER TO YOU, MR. OEE.
