Lady Players Wanted How About A Nice Quiet Chess Game?

Mrs. Pat Vile, 8570 SW 124th St., has only one complaint concerning her passion for playing che "I just can't find enough people to play with," she said. Mrs. Vile, whose search for fellow chess players prompted a recent ad in THE TIMES, said she learned the game from her brother 5 years ago and has been looking for new opponents ever since. Mrs. Vile admitted that she often plays her husband, a flight engineer at National Airlines, buut added that, "He nearly goes crazy wating for me to decide my moves." Born in Havana, Mrs. Vile moved here in 1929 at the age of 3. She met her husband, Charles in 1948 and they were married in 1953. The Viles' have 3 children, Johanna, 10; Chick, 5; and Mike, 3. Mrs. Vile believes in starting chess at an early age. "Chess," she said, "developes patience. I really think more people should play." She has already taught Johanna to play, and she plans to teach the boys as soon as they are ready. In the meantime, she is continuing her search for more advanced opponents. "I would like to see a women's chess club in this area," she said, "but there isn't much conversation during a chess game and most women don't go for that."
