Cohen Wins Second Prize In Chess Tournament
M. Fischmann, of Morris High School, won his adjourned game with N. Grossman, of New Utrecht, at the Rice Progressive Chess Club yesterday, and tied with Samuel S. Cohen of the Alexander Hamilton High School of Brooklyn, for second place in the annual tournament for the championship of the Interborough High School Chess League.
It was won by Max Schleifer of Boys' High School, on Saturday.
The tie was played off at once and resulted in victory for Cohen, who thereby became the second prize winner, Fischman taking third. William Alpern, of Manuel Training, finished fourth, the other two prize winners being A. Bernstein, of De Witt Clinton, and N. Grossman, of New Utrecht.
