The Chesapeake Challenge Cup The Cup is the result of a brainstorming session between Jerry Keker of the National Institutes of Health Chess Club in Bethesda and myself. Although the Chesapeake Challenge Cup trophy was bought and paid for by NIH and FMCA, and is currently held by FMCA, it belongs to all the players of the Chesapeake region. No club may challenge for the Cup twice in a row, and a club which has just lost the Cup may not be the next challenger to get it back, unless they are the only challengers that can be found. www.serve.com /mdchess/ChessCup.html   (724 words)
