N.B. Peter Clarke in BCM, October 1967, p289, took issue with the final round pairings: "What a deplorable end to the championship! It was not that the three top games were quickly drawn, it was that they should ever have been played. In the opinion of the players —and this has since been independently supported—the above pairings were quite incorrect and contrary to the rules laid down by the B.C.F. A protest was made, but the Controllers refused to budge. The expected pairings (they were even forecast by a local paper) were as follows: Lee-Penrose, Lambshire-Hartston, and Clarke-Golombek. Lee was the highest eligible player who wanted White and therefore “had” to meet Penrose; similarly, Lambshire was right for Hartston; Goiombek and I (both White in Round 10) then had to meet. Now it is obvious that Lee could have been a dangerous opponent for Penrose, while Hartston reckoned he had more prospects of beating Lambshire than me. It hardly mattered to me whether I played Hartston or Golombek. The above pairings give Bonner White when he was due for Black and Lee Black when he was due for White. And further down the colour situation was not satisfactory. I am not sure, for instance, that it was necessary to give Cafferty another Black (five years running, he tells me, he has finished with two Blacks)."

Julie DobsonThe British Ladies’ Championship Play-Off
by Dinah Dobson
[CHESS, December 1967, Vol.33 No.545-6, p101]

The play-off for the British Ladies Championship between Mrs. R. M. Bruce of Plymouth and myself took place in Northwood [NW London] over the last two weekends of October. Four games were played and it had previously been agreed that if there were a tie, the title would be shared.

Game 1

My opponent opened 1 c4 followed by 2 g3—an unexpected move. In previous games to my knowledge, she has always opened 1 e4, 1 g3, 1 f4 or 1 Nf3. My response was not the best and I was lucky to draw.

Game 2

This game I won after 62 moves and hours play. Having refused a draw on move 19, I was helped by the fact that my opponent failed to get in ...e5 or ...b5 which, I believe, is essential in this opening.

Game 3

I gave up the exchange for bishop and two pawns and this I believe was correct—but unfortunately my follow-up was disastrous!

Game 4

By this time we were both suffering from lack of sleep. My opponent played a Centre-Counter in response to my 1 e4 and on move 9 offered me a draw which I was pleased to accept.

We then shook hands and opened a bottle of champagne!
