Typical Game by Brunnemer.
Brooklyn has suffered this season through a number of defections. The League team, therefore, is finding it pretty hard sledding against the big clubs and for that matter cannot afford to take chances with any of the others. Among those who have gone elsewhere is J. W. Brunnemer who lives in New Jersey and finds it more convenient to play occasionally for the Chess Club International. He conducted and won a typical game against J. Khotimlansky of the Rice-Progressive Chess Club, the score of which follows:
