20 YEARS

George Orwel l was never a member o f the Toms River Chnaa Club--but i f he had been I 'm sure he would have mentionscl 61tw Club,

Orwell wrote about f a n t a s t i c soc ie ta l changes i n him clha9iF book, 1984.

Well, a t t h e Toms River Chess Club, we have undergone anmw f a n t a s t i c changes i n our 20 years over t he boards . . .

For 20 years t h e Club has provided a gathering place fo r shans p layers across t h e nation. We have grown t o become one of tt~m laru~dat clubs i n t h e Un i ted States.

Today we have a c i r c u l a t i n g and reference l i b r a r y f i l l t a d with cur rent and h i s t o r i c a l chess pub l ica t ions . Our tournament ~lclradula l a var ied and f u l l . The breadth of our a c t i v i t i e s i s extensive and inc lus ive .

Over t h e years, many ta len ted youths have developed t h e i r chuaa s k i l l s a t our c lub, and today f i n d themselves on "top" l i s t s i n marly categories.

Our encouragement of chess promotion and development has foatarsl l I i n t w e e t s i n many people. These i n t e r e s t s have car r ied over wi th inerly i n d i v i d u a l s as they have moved t o o ther states, and promoted cheaa un na t i ona l and i n t e r n a t i o n a l levels.

We have played host t o t h e i h te rna t i ona l chess stars. Our cl l lh I t s known from C a l i f o r n i a--to Par i s--to Moscow. That i s sure1 Y a proud accomplishment.

Th is i s our Club! A proud c lub w i th 20 superb years. D e f i n i t ~ l y we are a t rendse t te r i n .the c lub arena, and the envy of other cll@a@ clubs.

Put more impor tant ly , we are friends--good f r iends. This Is tllm under ly ing s t reng th of t h e Toms River Chess Club--we, the members. Without us, i t would have been a tough 20 years! With us, i t only makes t h e ce leb ra t i on of t h i s occasion a t ime t o remember the maten we've missed, t h e pieces we've given away, our f r i ends who have lef t - -and our f r i ends who remain, the joys and sorrows of 20 years. t h e fun, laughs and good t imes we've shared together, and a time t o look ahead t o f u r t h e r achievement5 on and o f f t he board as we entnr 1984 together.

E. Steven Doyle Toms River Chess Club President

i The Club was fol-tnded i n 1954 and had 2. small number of cllavers

I when I joined i n 1973. I n 1974 we star ted monthly quads and ran them f o r two f u l l years

on the f i r s t Saturday of each month. I n August of each year anyone who had played i n a quad previous t o t ha t received a f ree ent ry and w* able t o p a r t i c i p a t e i n a barbecue.

Perhaps the one thin^ tha t makes a c lub qrow and continue t o prosper i s a soc ia l atmosphere and a l a rqe va r i e t y of special events t o prevent boredom and maintain i n te res t .

The important th ing t o do f i r s t i s b u i l d a base. run tournaments. keep addresses, make mai l ings and. as B e l l Telephone would ray. "reach out and touch." The use of the phone i s very important as i t provides the personal touch tha t i s so essent ia l .

ANNUAL ACTIVITIES A t the beginning of the year we publ ish a f u l l l i s t of each date

the Club w i l l be open between January and December. We plan an event f o r each niqht . The events we have run on any given n iqh t would be as f o l 1 owe:

(1) The annual Club championship i s run over consecutive weeks--usual l v a six-round swiss, i n several sections. Open (open; t o a l l . general ly one d o l l a r more): Booster (open t o those rated 1599 and below); Reserve (open t o 1399 and below); Unrated ( f o r .non-USCF members--with USCF memberships as pr izes) : Scholastic (grades 12 and below--with a p r i ze f o r each grade, inc lud ing elementary.) The sections are a l l USCF rated, except the non-rated. o f course.

I f the youngsters can' t a f fa rd the ent ry fee. we l e t them come ea r l y and set up a l l the se ts and put scoresheets and penci ls a t each board. By using the bar ter system. attendance i s improved and the C l~ tb i s set up f o r action. Considering t h i s event draws 100+ entries. there i s a great deal of worl:: needed t o set up.

Since the event i s run on consec~ t i ve weeksr o f t en people can't attend. So we make special arrangements, ranging from special byes t o n igh ts reserved f o r makeup games.

(2) We also hold an annual F a l l tournament. This event i s general ly an open tournament running f i v e conseccttive weeks. w i th trophy pr izes. We have two pa r t i es before and a f t e r t h i s event. but more on those l a te r .

(3) County Championship--again a consecutive f ive-rounder wi th cash prizes.

(4) Junior and Senior Championship. Since these two cateqories cause no c o n f l i c t between each other, we run them together as a four-week event. The games are ra ted and p r i zes are usua l l y books f o r the jun iors and for the seniors, e i t he r cash or renewal of USCF memberships.

(5) Each month we continue t o hold quads. Not on ly do they add more addresses t o the l a i l i n g l i s t , bctt they prove t o be good fund-raisers and membership makers--since, of course, we use Chess L i f e each month.

( h ) Last, but not least , we hold a Club ladder each year. The ladder i s rated, and very simple. We don't make any r a t i n g changes and there are no monthly calculat ions. You simply challenge any USCF member t o a ra ted game and play. You then repor t the r e s u l t t o the

. , l adder d i r e c t o r (who a l s o serves as Club l i b r a r i a n . ) The c o s t i s 25 c e n t s a p l a y e r and t h e f i r s t f i v e games a re f ree . We have a specia l r e p o r t c a r d t h a t we f i l e i n a s p e c i a l w a l l u n i t ( t ime card s l o t s ) .

The aforement ioned summarizes our r a t e d a c t i v i t y f o r t h e year, save one. Each August we h o l d a f r e e tournament, open t o a l l Club f members. We c o n t a c t l o c a l bus inesses and q e t p r i z e s donated. I n v a r i o u s years, we have g i v e n o u t Seiko watches, c lo thes. chess c1ocI:s. j sets, books, booze, e tc . But b e s t o f a l l . we have a. barbecue and s o c i a l i z e over some chess.

I n a d d i t i o n t o t h e every-month a c t i v i t i e l i k e these. each veqlr wr! b i d on S t a t e t i t l e d tournaments. These always prove popular.

EARCY HISTORY rn RlVER CHESS CLUB

We started as a group of twelve in the early spring of 1964. This bas the response to a short notice kindly published as a news i t an ky the Asbuly Park Press. Our charter w h r s were as follows:

Frank Saveriano John Busch Mark Rhodes Horace Dantro Brad Saveriano Rabert D. Donaldson

mbea L. wydock Joseph Shurmaitus Glenn Russell Richard Pietravalle Bruce &'ens Ray E h r e

We really grew fast during the f i r s t few weeks and by -r we had about forty names on the roll . Of those early ~ m k r s , only Ken Ivens, Jamie Soto and Geome Whittle have stayed on. M y have gone t o college, mi&, nwed to distant places, but rust of them p-ly play chess to sme extent.

The f i r s t two rreetings were held in my haw, but it was M a t e l y obvious that we had to get larger quarters and fast. Everyone of us worked a t it. We were tumed away a t every attenpt. Finally, Sy Hertzon, a teacher a t Toms River High School (now knam as "South"), arranged for us to meet in the High School. Sy taught mchanical drawing and sponsored the High School Chess Club. So we played chess in h is class roan on slanted drawing boards - they did not have space enough or wfiatever was needed to be adjusted level. In dd i t ion to concentrating on chess m e s we had to make cmpmations for the pieces sliding sideways with a m e like a rook. For sme reason (it was probably the cost of paying the janitor) we soon w e d on to the Toms Fiver D i n e r . The diner was then located on the Southeast corner of Mairi Street and Route 37. The playing space was in an unheated side roan on nice f l a t tables i n upholstered booths. M did alright there and i f we got cold we just \\rent to the cuunter in the next rocan and bought coffee plus other good things to wann us. when winter cane, even the heated chess bat t les along with coffee were not enough to keep us -. Cur n d e h a w was in a big furniture store on blain Street near Waskington Street. H e r e we had to make our am furniture. m a 1 evenings were spent converting some slightly damaged dmrs into tables. The doors and hardware were furnished for a low fee by a local 1- dealer. By this tire we had s a w strong players on our team such as Bob Linmln , Harry Deering, Les John, and Dob Coughlin. One night we returned late from a South Jersey Chess League m t c h a t Atlantic City d y to discover that the furniture store had burned dam. Cur nm chess tables were gone and we had nmhere t o met . Through the gc=+ offices of Mayor John Woods, we were al- to met in the courtroom of T m Hall on Washington Street. What a wonderful place that was! Plenty of table space, nice folding chairs, a mll kitchdarea too so we could make our awn coffee, and it was warm in the winter. W e rrwed in and prorreded to grow a t an astounding rate. Our team grew to be so stmng we won the championship of the South

Jersey Chess League - atcut 1970 I believe. Tf7e trophy was the largest I had ever seen for such an event.

When the Bobby Fischer boQn h i t the country, chess clubs weqmhere grew l ike ~ s h ~ ~ . After Fischer won the World Championship, our club was bursting the walls of Tam Hall.

The T m Hall was an excellent place for chess players. Many t-s s m e -rs would play a l l night then go out together for breakfast; Irving Glenn and Frank Saveriano were farrnus for that. Then they wmld continue playing a t I rv ' s house.

Saw strong players have learned their game in the club. Arthur o ~ c l Douglas Aiken, Laurence Epstein, Ted Dobracki, Joel Schmrtz, Ken Ivens, Craig Kielminski were a m g the youngsters w h o havc c l e v c l o r x d into fine players. Later on we have had many others vho lcmetl tllci r m e s and sharpened their spurs a t Tuns River such as Davc K u v n l (~rld Leo McLaugt~lin.

In our f i r s t constitution authored by Frank Saveriano and ndq,lc.cl 11y the club on April 1, 1964 and signed by the twelve charter nrlldx~r-s, the purpose of the club were stated to be:

a) The encouragement of a l l effor ts and activities in connc,<.t.iori with chess.

h) The pramtion of f u l l discussion and exchange of ideas. c) The dissemination of the significant results of a l l thcsc cSi-tort s

and activities. d ) The hprov-t of the m W s used in these efforts and

act ivi t ies .

Through the years, rrost of these purp3ses were accamplished with l i t t l e fanfare - everyone had the enthusiasm for the gare of chess which made a success out of anything we tried, and it is still tlnt way. The Toms River Chess Club is your club -- one of the kst cvcr!

INTERNATIONAL GWUD?USTER

"THE DOVER DISCOVERY" by

ROBERT J. COUGHLIN

Like Christopher Coltnbus, chess ptayers lozs, well the t h r i l l of discovery.

Indeed the average 20th century chess enthusiast should have a more profound

comprehension o f t h i s concept than was possible for even the best of the 1 5 t h

century minds. While it i s true tha.?. the advent o f printing i n the mid 1400's

created a wiZdfire fervor for knowledge, the early renaissance mind, although

wonderfully awed by i t s prospects, has reached, a l l i n a l l , about as far as the

narborn baby does i n f i r s t finding i t s own toes. Meamhile i n European chess,

the present powers of the queen and the bishop were tollorown un t i l a t leas t the

middle o f the 15th century; and certainly, a one squcrre crab sidle for the queen

and a similar two square diagonal hop for the bishop must have permitted mthing

more than primitive, snail-paced attacking maneuvers. So the eidolon of discovery,

whether broadly or m r o w l y perceived, w s an onbryonic idea for the Colwnbian man.

But i n any o r even, perhaps, every sense, what do we now mean by discoveq?

Since the t e rn 'ldiscoverylr denotes a d iscbsure of the unknown, the word i t s e l f

s igni f ies an unexpected and consequently, a surprising w e n t . This element of

, surprise gives the discovery an aethereal, an almost magical quality missing i n

such workhorse t ac t i c s as, for exmnple, the pin and the fork. Like the ir mundane

m e s a k e s , the pin and the fork are most comonly u t i l i tar ian . I Wt that we

w i l l ever hear a startled chess player ac ta im something l i k e , NWow, now that ' s

a real ly astonishing pin!"

When skewered by a pin or impaled on the d i l m i c prongs of a fork, the

vict im might actually writhe i n perplexity and pain; but he i s not mnazed

by a miraculous event that has i neq l i cab l y occured. He may be eqec t ed to mutter

some semi-subdued imprecations, but he surely wi l l not in ter jec t i n v o l m t m y cr ies \ ,

of wonder. Even Coltnbus would probably have t e s t i f i ed that discovery i s not pure

"-- pleasure, and assuredly the f i sh who has just floundered i n to double check rmd

mate i s not ovemhehed with bowzdless joy. However, i n chess, the anguish of

discovery i s o f t en tempered by an almost metaphysical and impersonal fascination

with what has transpired; for paradoxically, both the v ic tor and the vanquished

have joined forces i n an act of creations. I , myself, M e a lmys believed thut

SavieZZy Tartakower, a master player and a thoroughly prepared theoretician, was

perversely more concerned with abstract beauty t h m with crass materialism when,

with eight (8 ) . . .. . ..NxN i n the diagram below, he played in to h i s spectucular

eleven move loss t o Richard Reti a t Vienna, i n 1910.

Nevertheless, the tac t ics of t h i s game have a limited inpact. They have

intend t o demonstrate t h i s phenomenon to you. The game I wish t o si!are with you

has no real discovel.ies it. rh t discovery there i s - i s a& <t. My thes is

i s not the tac t ics of discovery; it i s rather, the discovery of strategg.

This, the f i r s t of a Siamese pair of strategic serendipit ies, appeared in a

game plugred a t the already venerable Toms River Chess Club then quartered i n the

Dover Township Municipal Courtroom. Where was I ; and what szs I doing on the r.ight

o f July 28, 1972, you ask? Honest your honor, I wasn't doin' nothin' . I was just

playing chess. I was up t o no good, but I was discovering a mrvelous maneuver

t ha t Aaron Niemzowitsch might hare appropl.iately dubbed the 'lcarrouseZ bishop"

had he been lucky enough to stumble through it as I did. RemarknEZy this'cunnina

stratagem enabled me to beat Pete Tamburro, a fea t that i s unfor twate ly u t t e r l y

unique for me. Since t h i s a r t i f i c e cropped up i n a f ive minute game, the exploit

oecomes even more incredible. You see, s i r , Pete Tambmo i s a f ine f ive minute

ptayer and I mn t o ta l l y inept. They don't call me "Rapid Robert" because I'm the

f e l l e r from CZeveZand who employed a moving fas t bal l but contrarity because I'm

the guy from Cleveland who enjoys h i ~ p l o d d i n g chess mind.

But enough of t h i s badinage, here ' s the game; you be the judge.. . . .

CHESS REMINISCING

Temple Pat ton

Probably no chess p l w e r ever f o r g e t s t h e f i r s t book of chess o r chess magazine t h a t served t o in t roduce him o r h e r t o chess l i t e r a t u r e . I n my case it was a s m e l l s i z e d 220-page t e x t o r i g i n a l l y pab l i shed i n 1894. My oopy was a 1917 r e p r i n t wi th t h e imposing t i t l e of " The Minor T a c t i c s of Chessn.It was w r i t t e n by two Boston Brahmins,-Franklin K.Young and Edwin C. Howell. A Brahmin i s def ined a s an i n t e l l e c t u a l l y and eocial- l y c u l t i v a t e d peruon regarded a s a loof ; e s p e c i a l l y a person from one of t h e o l d e r New England fami l ies . C e r t a i n l y t h e i d e a s a e m e d up i n t h i s chess book (given t o me by m y f a t h e r when I was t h i r t e e n y e a r s o l d ) were c o n s i s t e n t wi th a Brahmin a t t i t u d e .

Let me quote two t y p i c a l passages from t h i s book:

"When K is sub jec ted t o t h e opera t ion of a r a d i u s of offenoet o r , i n t e c h n i c a l language is placed i n check, i t must on t h e fo l lowing move be removed from check, i f possible."

O r d i souus ing Pawn formations:

"The f i r s t open P i n t e g r a l i s composed of t h e f i r s t s a l i e n t and t h e f i r s t composite suppor t ing p a r a l l e l ( t o g e t h e r cons t i - t u t i n g t h e f i r s t compoaite ang le of r e s i s t a n c e ) , and t h e two elements o f t h e normal P base, with K i n i ts Pos i t ion a f t e r c a a t l i n g (KR)."

Actua l ly d e ~ p i t e t h e s t i l t e d w r i t i n g s t y l e t h e book was no t a l t o g e t h e r s t u l t i f y i n g s i n c e amonp o t h e r t h i n g s a s a " f i r a t examination of a specimen of play" they reviewed i n depth P a l Morphyvs famous game with t h e Duke of Brunswick end Count Iso- nard. No amount o f ' d o o f n e s s ' on t h e p a r t of t h e au thors cou ld poas ib ly d e t r a c t from t h e f a s c i n a t i o n of t h i s superb d i s p l a y of chess magic.

Some weeks l a t e r a f t e r reading, bu t no t r e a l l y understand- i n g t h i s f i r s t t e x t , I went t o t h e Milton P u b l i c L ibra ry i n a suburb of Boston and w i t h cons iderab le t r e p i d a t i o n loca ted a ponderous two volume tome by t h e same a u t h o r s d e a l i n g witti t h e s t r a t e e i c a l p r i n c i p l e s o f chess. This t r e a t i a e was so a b s t r u s e and complex i n p r e s e n t a t i o n ( with r e f e r e n c e s t o t h e Napolenic wars and a r t i l l e r y formations among o t h e r t h i n g s ) t h a t my in te r - e s t i n cheus was aoon dampened.

About 30 y e a r s l a t e r I chanced on a copy of "Winning Chese Traps" by I r v i n g Chernov (1946). Browsing through t h i s chess p u b l i c a t i o n complately changed my conception of what chess waa a l l about. I became addic ted t o the game. I till cons ider t h i s book by Chernov t o be an o u t a t v l d i n g e f f o r t i n terms of i n s p i r a t i o n , easy comprehension, and l o g i c a l p resen ta t ion . I UrKe anyone t o give i t B a n y youngster who shows t h e l e a s t i n t e r - e s t i n t h e game.

Speaking of youngrrters, it seems I have played more than my share of young playere whom I have managed t o outplay when they were say t e n t o f i f t e e n years of age only t o meet them severa l years l a t e r and f ind myself on the los ing end. Very humbling, of course. I once played Bobby Fiecher a t t he Log Cabin Chess Club whenhe m a y o u n g ~ t e r but i n t h a t enoounter I lo s t .

A t t h i s point I would l i k e t o annotate a tournament game of l a s t April played a t t he Toms River Chess Club. I won t h i s game with a young high schopl player but I predic t t ha t i n a f w years he may well oatplay mg. I o a l l t h i s phenomena the Law of Ages. For t he present , a t l e a s t , we a r e equal contenders.

FRWCH DEFENCE

The exclamation point i~ f o r me since I used t o do poorly i n t he French Defence u n t i l I adopted t h i s move. This l i ne i e h o r n am t h e Advance Variation and i s gaining i n popularity. It is s tud ied i n depth i n the second sec t ion of a recent book (1979) by T.D.Harding t i t l e d " French: MacCucheon and Advance Linesn (Batsford Algebraic Chess Openings). It i s a l so r e f e r r d t o as t h e Nimzowitsch Variation and I am sure t h a t t h a t o ld fom knew what he was doing i n promoting t h i s l ine.

Usual i s 3 .... P a and i n the r i v a l r y between two re- t irement communities i n Brick Town,I ( represent ing Greenbriar) have been playing t h i s l i n e with Mendel Feuchbaum (from Green- b r i a r 11). Mendel i s alfio a member of the TRCC.

Dear Stever

Hearty c o n g r a t u l a t i o n s t o t h e Toms River Chess Club i n Dover Township, t o a l l its members, and t o you it P r e s i d e n t , on t h e 20th Anniversary o f i ts founding! May it have many, many more b i r thdays .

My only v i s i t t o t h e Toms River Chess Club was on t h e evening of January 8, 1982. I t was p l e a s a n t and memorable. A s t h e o rgan izer o f t h e evening 's agenda, you w i l l reraefnbm t h a t we a l l enjoyed a l a r g e , d e l i c i o u s chess cake, I "submittsd" t o a Ques t ion and Answer s e s s i o n on t h e platform, that I gave a s m a l l simultaneous e x h i b i t i o n a g a i n s t 1 0 of your t a l e n t e d junior p l a y e r s , and t h a t Joseph H. Vicar i , Mayor of t h e Township of Dover, i n t h e County o f Ocean and t h e S t a t e of New Jersey, g r a c i o u s l y welcomed me . t ~ ~tBe, .comun&tg and pre- sen ted me w i t h a Township o f Dover Proclamation.

The Ques t ion and Answer s e s s i o n was my first and on ly p u b l i c s p e a k h g e f f o r t . How d id you t a l k me i n t o it? Was it t h e beginning o r end of a c a r e e r ?

Another f e a t u r e of t h e evening was my simultaneous game with Daniel P i l l o n e . &nny gave me t h e h a r d e s t f i g h t o f anyone and probably should have won o r drawn. A s a r e s u l t . I-was happy t o t a k e him a long on t h e C o l l i n s Kids Team t o Reykjavik, Ice- land l a s t December-January.

The Toms River Chess Club is a f i n e one with i ts spaciousness . good l i g h t i n g , PA system, v e n t i l a - t i o n , w e l l chosen t a b l e s , s e t s , boards, and en- t h u s i a s t i c and f r i e n d l y members. Tvro decades is a good start. Keep it going and a g a i n c o n g r a t u l a t i o n s .
