wherein W. W. Leighton, the checker
wonder from Minnesota will play
eight games at one time. Mr. Leighton
played three or four games at the
same time at the local rooms, Tues
day evening and won most of them.
The Orchard checker players went
to Neligh last week one day where
they met the Albion players. The Al
bion disk pushers cleaned up the Or
chard fellows in jig time, and seemed
to show no mercy upon them. The
O’Neill bunch are now planning on go
ing to Albion and winning the cham
pionship of Boone county also. The
local players have hesitated to take on
the southeasterners until after their
match with Orchard but now that they
have a line on their game they have
no hesitancy to meet them in a match
soon.
O’NEILL NOW CLAIMS THE
CHAMPION CHECKER PLAYER
The events of the past few days have
placed O’Neill at the top of checker
dom in this part of the world.
A series of eight games was played
at the rooms of the local checker club
last night between Inspector of
Schools A. M. Voss, who is the
champion checker player of the state,
and W. W. Leighton, the recognized
champion of Minnesota. Voss won
three games, Leighton won one game
and the other four were draws.
After the series between Voss and
Leighton, L. C. Chapman took Voss on
and won all games played. This gives
Chapman the title without a struggle
If Chapman can be Induced to play the
Iowa and South Dakota experts, the
title of the central states will be lo
cated in O’Neill this summer.
