I do not xactlv understand what construction he puis upon the word "friendly," but I do know that the technical match rules were in force as regards the touching and moving of the pieces, and either player was apparently willing to exact technical penalties.

He also afTirms that there was no stake on the match. This is true, but he has never approved of playing for money, did not propose any stake, and was not willing to have a stake, although I suggested that the playerg in a match were entitled to something, Id view of time and effort expended.

The principle address will be delivered by the Rev. Brother Trescow of The musical program will he no stake he means to belittle the result, he should understand that he cannot urge a point after said match that he would not concede before the match. Dr. Keeney again asserts that R. F.

Fitzgerald of Dayton. was the last champion of Ohio. He forgets that he himself first won it "that is, the tri-state championship), in liKM. Fitzgerald in ly5 and he himself again in 1906, and the tri-state association then ceased to exist. Dr.

Keeney says that if I am looked for here I will find "Barkis ready and willing." He should be better acquainted with chess precedent than to make such a statement. I want to say in passing that at the conclusion of the match he declared his intention of issuing a return challenge, but he has not done so yet, and he does not explain in his statement tlje reason why. Now, why should I look for him? Would Dr. Lasker challenge Dr. Tarrasch to a return match? The loser of a match always has the privilege of issuing a challenge for another match.

All the winner can do Is to accept the challenge. Dr. Keeney is willing to admit that I am equal to him, which is of course quite a generous concession in his mind at least. He goes on to say that in spite of my victory over him not over two ot our club members will admit that I even his equal. Gladly would I pass over such statements except that this is unfair to the members and to myself.

Four members at least expressed themselves as believing I was the stronger in several respects, and seveu refused to commit themselves at all. In conclusion, having pointed out the inconsistencies in the doctor's statement. I would like to have clearly understood the grounds on which I lay my claim to the Ohio championship, and the fact that I have the best claim at the present time. As regards Dr. Keeney, if he is dissatisfied with the result of the match he knows enough about chess precedent to know what to do.
