Even the kibitzers are intent as they watch this second-round match during last night's City Cribbage tournament play at the American Legion home. Vic Shewman, seated at left, is just about to put the whammy on VFW Champion Ernest Kranich in a second-round match that went the full seven games. At the start of this hand, Shewman needed five holes to win but had to peg them since Kranich had first count. Shewman pegged three and is here shown just about to play the six-spot for a two-point 31-count that won him the game and eliminated Kranich. The kibitzer at the top right with the painted necktie is Rollie Slittler, 1948 city champion who lost out in the second round last night. (Story on page 15).

Chess Tourney Ends Today: Concentration was evident yesterday as Keith Conrey (left) tried to entrap opponent Hubert H. Wyeth in the second Mark's Coffeehouse Open Chess Tournament. Watching the action at the first Congregational Church is Burton Grossmon. The tournament began Friday with 82 participants, final rounds were scheduled today. Included in the action was a computer chess program, called TECH, which found human competition a little too smart to handle. TECH lost its first round match, but the loss was attributed to lack of time. "It played a little too slowly," one person said.
