The Morning Call, Paterson, New Jersey, Thursday, March 06, 1930
A meeting of the Radburn Chess and Checker club was held Monday night in the Radburn club room for the purpose of organization. Dr. R. M. Bristol was elected president and Clarence J. Herdt was elected secretary and treasury. Interesting plans for placing the Radburn Chess and Checker club in the public eye were discussed, and it is expected that the new officers will carry out some of these.
After the election and discussion J. W. Brunnemer, champion chess player, of New Jersey, played the white side against the opposition consisting of Mrs. C. W. Pritchard, Maxwell Golburgh, Clarence J. Herdt, Oliver C. Hall and Mrs. Norman W. Morison. Three of these people were in the consultation group against the United States champion, Frank J. Marshall, who was here one week, so that the New Jersey champion found it no baby's game. However, after twenty-four moves the opposition, playing the black, resigned to State Champion Brunnemer. The new Chess and Checker club plans a simultaneous match against State Champion Brunnemer on Tuesday evening, March 11, in the Radburn club room.
