Chess and Draughts Club
Chess and Draughts Club
Although only one club night has been held during the winter term, much interest has been taken in this branch of the social side of a true University education. Two sets of draughtsmen and one of chess have been placed in the men's common room, while a set of chess-men is in use in the women's room. These have been used to the greatest extent and advantage. Enthusiasm has sometimes run so high in the men's common room that the windows have been endangered. Nevertheless we feel that good work has been done in encouraging students to take an interest in this excellent method of recreation as well as of "mental gymnastics." Finally we would like to remind members of the library belonging to the Club, and any interested may borrow these books on application to the Secretary.
