CHINOOK OPEN October 7-8, 1989 Thad Suits, newly arrived i n Great Falls from Minnesota, made things i n ­teresting by holding Master Jon Lenchner to a draw i n round four. But when the dust settled Thad had f a l l e n j ^ v i c t i m t o Kip Stubberud and Jon s t o o d ^ clear f i r s t at A^-i. Bozeman's r i s i n g star Kip Limesand snuck up to t i e Kip S. for second at 4-1. Biggest upset prize went to Richard Stuckey for his win over John Barto. „

Following up his second place f i n i s h i n the 87/ 88 MT postal i n f i n e style, Les Brennan forged a near perfect score to capture f i r s t place i n the 88/89 competition. Only Sherwood Moore could keep the pace by holding Les to a draw, but he slipped to second when he couldn't f i n d a win i n his game with Duane Hildenstab. Duane yielded a f u l l point only to less - and improved LO t h i r d place over his 2-3 outing the previous year. For games - see page 6.

•JHHHHHHHHHHHHt The largest B i l l i n g s tournament i n few years saw Dave McDonald leaa a group of seven players from the Sidney High School, Unfortunately they ran into a tough contingent of f i v e from MSU and three "big guns" from Wyoming. Steve Smith - "Top Gun" - swept the f i e l d f or a perfect score. Three of the f i v e MSU players "cashed i n " on class prize money, while the Sidney crew was "shut out". But watch out for those guys -t h e y ' l l be back. ,
