Alistair from Worcester Blind College and Droitwich's board 5 is also a new player.
Tony Spittle and Arnold Kirkland exchanged both rooks early in the game, which started
with a French Defence the same opening chosen by Bert Foord. The remaining games
featured closed openings. After the openings, all the positions were balanced.
