Chess wizards at P.S. 81 in Ridgewood were recently honored for winning the school’s annual chess tournament. It was the seventh year the school hosted a competition among pupils under the supervision of Arthur D. Seeger and Don Powers. This year, 110 students participated in the tournament, and the winners earned certificates as well as a chess book and a magnetic travel chess set. Seeger (third from right) is pictured with tournament winners (from left to right) third-grader Jack Alvarado, fifth-graders Xavier Burgos and Alfred Lim, fourth-grader Hemza Bisharat, third-grader Jackie Li and fourth-grader Alan Zheng.
