Chess tourney begins
The KU championship chess tournament, sponsored by the Student Union Activities (SUA), entered its first round of play Sunday in the Kansas Union.
Walter Stromquist, Charleston, Ill., sophomore and club president, said 37 contestants have registered for the opening round expected to last two weeks.
Defending champion is Don Varvel, Pittsburg senior.
Randy Mills, Shawnee Mission freshman and current Kansas champion, has entered the tournament.
The youngest player and only non-KU entrant is Sean Williams, 11, of Lawrence.
The tournament is a "seven round Swiss" with each contestant playing seven games with assigned opponents. No players are eliminated, and a player receives one point for a victory and a half a point for a draw.
Each game has a two-hour and 40-minute time limit.

does it affect You?
Sculpture in the exhibition ranged from starkly modern to crudely primitive. Other divisions included printed fabrics, enameling, jewelry, weaving and furniture.
"There is a big shift toward craft work which is mainly to look at, rather than to use," Miller said.
Miller stopped in front of a sculpture of "found" art. Its sign said, "To start machine, throw switch and stand back."
"Even jewelry is becoming too unusual or too heavy to wear often."
His purpose was to select winners from more than 500 entries at the 14th annual Kansas Designer Craftsman Exhibition. Names of the winners will be announced Oct. 9 at an awards meeting.
Thomas Gorton, dean of the School of Fine Arts, will announce the winners and present them with more than $1000 in cash prizes.
"People react to it more than a mass-produced piece."
Officials in the design department this week will set up a display of the winning objects in the Browsing Room of the Union. The exhibition will be open to the public Oct. 8 through Nov. 9.

Miller did. Immediately the machine began to rattle and jingle as wheels turned, gears ground, chains spun, bells rang, lights flashed and water ran down a tiny trough.
John Paul Miller, internationally known jewelry designer, walked slowly Saturday among hundreds of objects in the Kansas Union Ballroom.
Miller spent all day examining each piece of craft while design students prepared to answer his questions or cart away rejected objects.
"There's something about a hand-crafted object that draws attention to it," Miller said.
