I Basby, a 55-year-old lawyer, has been a prominent figure in San Francisco chess for mote than 30 years.

He has had hisi share of successes, but this is the first time he has gained the coveted State title. In outscoring his opponents Bagby played sound, conservative chess, winning four games and drawing three. At no time; as he in real danger of losing. His drawn battles were against William Addison of San Francisco and Irving Rivise and Joe Mego of Los Angeles. Addison took second place with a 5-2 score.

He won four times, drew twice and lost only to Arthur Wang, a high school student from Berkeley. Despite his last-place finish, Wang 1 plaved enterprising chess and will no doubt be heard from in the future. Irving Rivise, California Open champion, was not in his Santa Barbara form and barely made the third place, with 4-3. Tied at 3W-3i were Joe Mego and Saul Yarmak of Los Angeles and Phil D. Smith of Fresno.

Gordon Palmer of Venice tied with Wang at Leslie Simon of Los Angeles, Who had qualified for the finals, did not appear. His earlier score of Vz-lVi was canceled.
