In an exclting match played ln Leeds on JuIy lrd, Yorkshire beat Lancashire 1'l-9 to win the Engllsh Countles Chess Championship. This is only the thircl tlme that Yorkshire has won thls championship, the previous occasions belng 1921, when a Yorkshire team headed by F.D.Yates and. H.E.Atkins beat warwickshire 11*-B* in the final, and i974, when Yorkshlre beat Cambridgeshlre ln the flna1. On paper lancashlre looked much the stronger on the top boards, wlth the current British Champlon (as he was then) paul littlewood on top board aad. Nigel Short on board. two. The Yorkshire players thus d.ld. well to keep the score fo 4t-5t on the first ten bbards. It was on the mitldle boards that the Yorkshire strength shoyed. itself and the mateh was decid.ed. Much credit for this vletory must go to the Ftrst rean captain, llerek Markham, who worked very hard to assemble what was almost the etrongest posslble team. tliie glve elsewhere in this lssue the ful1 results of thls match, and the top board game ln shicb John Hal1 defeated. paul Llttlewood. YORKSHIRE STAYS IN BRITAIN The main item on the agenda of the YCA Annual- General Meeti-ng in June was a proposal from Davitt Milton that the YL:A should secede fron the Britlsh Chess Federation. As the Secretazy reports ln his eolumn, thls proposal was carrled by one vote, but didntt get the two-thirds naJority needed for a change 1n the constitution. As Geoff Sunderland says there wasntt a single reason for thls vote, but whereas he seems to see mueh substaace in many of the critl-cisms oi the tsc-l', it seened to me that many of the complalnts were very petty, and that there was a eertain narrow minded.ness about mueh of the oppostlion to the BCF. A number of people came along with a stock of smarl resentments that have built up over the years, Geoff Sund.erland.ts own story of Ann Hoptonrs crlticisms of the BCF organi-sati-on shows how long memorLes are. No doubt it was only an overslght that caused hlm to omli the fact that desptte the alleged nstifling of adverse criticism'r, the BCF has responded to these crltieisms by completery refornlng its management strtrcture. continued on pa6e J CONTENTS page 'lhe Secretaryrs 2 County Match Results 9 !O Years Ago ) F:.nal league [ables 10 Congresses 4 Woodhouse.

I dontt believe that there is a single cause to have warranted such a d,rastic motion but rather aa accumulation of factors such as, for example, the false clalm that the BCF provides the grading flgures which is patently untnre; the lneffectiveness of the policies over the raislng of ineome fron the rank and flle player; the grasping nature of the last three yearfs increase ln the levy rate of 25/,, 29% and ?5%; the elltlsm shown ln the red carpet treatment of the countryrs top players; the total dopendenee on the counties who are the workhorses of the BCF; the southeru bias ia BCF policy decistons etc. A11 these factors, to some extent, aIIled. to the generous support glven to the BCF over the years have played a part in the growlng dlsenchantment with the BCF, but where wB go from here is elouded. They appear to be pinning thelr flnanclal salvation more and Irore on sponsorship in common with other sports ancl lt may well be the way forward. Prior to our Annual General Meeting the county officials and club secretaries recelved a clrcular letter fron the BCF Presldent expressing hls disnay at our posslble secesslon, BesLdes ertolling the virtues and ad.vantages of BCF membershlp, errors of fact and mistaken assumpttons, there was an allusion to criticism from the sma1I band of critics w1thln the county who wrlte on these matters and whlch he appears to resent. I mention thLs because l-t remind.s me of the most vlrulent crlticlsu of the reglstration scheme that I can recall and lt came from their own secretarT, M:s Ann Hopton nas the newly appoi-ntetl seeretary Ia 197) and a very capable one too. In her flrst annual report she cond.emned. the registration scheme ia such terms that the question arose whether or not it should be published as lt didnrt represent official BCF poIlcy, Eventually 1t ras publish.ed after she added. a rider that the views.expressed. were her personal ones. The follor3"ng year she dropped the rlunatic state of affalrsfr blt but retalned. the "cumbersome, tlme wasting and expensiverr phrase. In her third annual report she waded in ;nabashed, with an attack on the excessive number of meetlngs which were considered necessary and she "couldntt und.erstand. how any group of grown men could continue to condone the systemn. She was rlght, of course, but frankness 1s not a quallty the BCF ad.mire and it was probably in mutual thankfulness that she aad they parted. company after her three year spe11. A pity. She had style. The BCF hierarchy should. have recovered by now but the stlfllng of adverse criticism is still hlgh on the agenda" With the "payment for grading'f seheme on its last legs the BCF have offlclally aclopted a new ldea known as the League Afflliatton Scheme 1n an endeavour to reverge the decline ln registrations. It ls to be 'rtreated as a propaganda warr which lmplies a straying from the whole t:rrth and nothing but the tmth, so bear in mind, gentremen, that they wonrt be on oath. trrom enquiries I have made wlthl-n the NCCU support for the scheme ls vlrtually non-existent. An iten from the BCI'annual accounts catches the eye. the Morecombe congress of last year shows a surplus of 02BBB.B1 compared. to a *55 surplus of the prevlous year at Brighton. No explanatlon was of,fered. at their July 1?th 19g2 neeti-ng though thelr new treasurer has probably not had tlme to analyse the figures following on the sudden resignation of peter Ezra. A. G. S. -)- Editorlal continued from page 1 It was agreed to invLte a BCF Offlcer to next yearrs AGU to listen to and respond to Yorkshlre crltleLsn of the BCF. Perhaps lt ts an 111 omen that even thls proposal had nany votes agalnst it. ADJUDICATIONS OR FAST FINISHES? Another proposal that stl-mulated a keea debate wag from Mr Butterworth of Dewsbury Chess Club. This was for fast flnlshes'.for games in the league prog?amme, to replace the present system of atlJudications of unflnlshed games. The argument here is largely one between the stronger and less strong players. AdJuttlcators have to be strong players, grading leve1 190 or hlgher. Bhere ls a slight absurdity in judglng games between much weaker players on the assumption that thereafter the play will be perfeet, or at least as perfect as the strong adJucticator ean manage. On the other haad, on the htgher boards of the Woodhouse Cup the standard of play ls very hlgh, and strouger players do not like the gamble of fast flnishes, whieh places a prernlum on rapid. superfleial chess. The adJudlcatlon system 1s not ldeal, but the neetlng clearly judgecl it to be the best of the avallable options for games unflnished after fou,r hours. fhe proposal for a change ln the rules was d.efeated by 10 votes to 17. FINANCIAL AFFAIRS After the proposal for secesslon from the BCF ras d.efeated., Mr Appleby wlthdrew hls proposal to replace the requirement for reglstratlon by a system of raising money by flxed. entry fees for the league conpetitlons. The treasurer explained. that slnce the obltgatlon to pay the BCF levy paymeat renained, thig proposal would requlre very hlgh club entr'5r fees. It ls unfortunate that this matter wssrrtt elarifiecl before the proposal was mad.e. The result is that a meeting which w&s on the whole hostile to the BCF has allowed, the present reglstratlon system, whereby we pay to the BCF more than we are obliged to cto by the levy system, to eontinue for another year. The treasurer was able to report a small surplus of e2O for the 1981-2 season, but he recoumend.ed an lncrease in fees, the flrst for two yearsrto take account of lncreased costs. Details of lnereases in club fees w111 be sent to club secretarles. The combl.ned registration fee goes up from 81.90 to fi2.14, the BUILETIN subscription is now e1.50, but there yas no increase in the Couaty Match board. fee of *2.5O. A. B. S.

  • Proposal to Encode Heterodox Chess Symbols in the UCS Source: Garth Wallace Status: Individual Contribution Date: 2016-10-25
    Title: Proposal to Encode Heterodox Chess Symbols in the UCS Source: Garth Wallace Status: Individual Contribution Date: 2016-10-25 Introduction The UCS contains symbols for the game of chess in the Miscellaneous Symbols block. These are used in figurine notation, a common variation on algebraic notation in which pieces are represented in running text using the same symbols as are found in diagrams. While the symbols already encoded in Unicode are sufficient for use in the orthodox game, they are insufficient for many chess problems and variant games, which make use of extended sets. 1. Fairy chess problems The presentation of chess positions as puzzles to be solved predates the existence of the modern game, dating back to the mansūbāt composed for shatranj, the Muslim predecessor of chess. In modern chess problems, a position is provided along with a stipulation such as “white to move and mate in two”, and the solver is tasked with finding a move (called a “key”) that satisfies the stipulation regardless of a hypothetical opposing player’s moves in response. These solutions are given in the same notation as lines of play in over-the-board games: typically algebraic notation, using abbreviations for the names of pieces, or figurine algebraic notation. Problem composers have not limited themselves to the materials of the conventional game, but have experimented with different board sizes and geometries, altered rules, goals other than checkmate, and different pieces. Problems that diverge from the standard game comprise a genre called “fairy chess”. Thomas Rayner Dawson, known as the “father of fairy chess”, pop- ularized the genre in the early 20th century.

  • The Future of Ocean Governance and Capacity Development
    The Future of Ocean Governance and Capacity Development <UN> Elisabeth Mann Borgese, 1918–2002 First Lady of the Oceans remembering Elisabeth Mann Borgese Committed as she was to all the right things, she gave dazzling speeches with a brilliant turn of a phrase, but I remember her best standing on her head and smiling upside down. It was the oceans she loved, those salty seas where life began and over time emerged onto land. She believed a new set of laws would do as life had done: emerge from the seas onto land. She gave her own life to this grand possibility. She lived at the water’s edge and took her dogs for long walks on the sandy shores. In her quiet moments she taught her dogs, proper English setters, to play piano, to type and even to write Columbian school poetry. I learned from her the art of vision, of looking into the depths and finding a future worth fighting for. She was only fifty when I saw her standing on her head, well past youth and on her way to venerability. She grew older with grace, never slowing her tempo or showing the accumulating years. They called her the queen of the seas, the first lady of the oceans. It was the mountains that took her away, the snow covered mountains. david krieger, February 2011 <UN> The Future of Ocean Governance and Capacity Development Essays in Honor of Elisabeth Mann Borgese (1918–2002) Edited by the International Ocean Institute - Canada Dirk Werle – Paul R.
