All the games appeared lively with the longest finish being a Winawer Variation on 
bottom board.Board 2 was a quick game and a win for Halesowen.  On board 4, the 
Dragon met its match against the Yugoslav Attack. Board 3 was a trappy Ruy Lopez 
where black lost sight of his knight, but got interesting counter chances with a 
bishop sac to pick up a queen. This was spotted and white went on to win comfortably.

Corrected 3-5-04 thanks to Gary Jackson. Sorry, I transposed the results for 
all players in this match. Comes from the newspaper printing the home team as
the away side.
An important win and the sixth of the season for St James who
have lost one match only. Halesowen, before this match had
also dropped two points in draws against Kidderminster and
Headless Cross.
