Chess is a sport for competition of intelligence, strategy and will. It has complicated changes and is very interesting. Playing chess will not only bring fun to people's spare time, but also help them to develop intelligence, ideation and imperturbability. Marx and Lenin, the great revolutionary tutors, were all enthusiastic chess fans. Lenin once compared chess to "the gymnasium of the mind". Marx thought that chess and checkers were both games for the intelligent. The game is played on a chessboard with 64 black and white squares and the pieces are vivid, so it has a natural appeal to children and teenagers. Therefore, in recent years, some European countries have taken chess as an item for combining teaching with pleasure and a tool for inspiring thinking. They set chess courses in primary schools.  The experience of setting chess courses at Moliere School of France is now progressively spread to other European countries. In USSR, the so-called "Chess Kingdom", there were chess courses in primary schools, chess groups in Children's Palaces and regular lectures and training classes on chess.  On top of those, a lab specializing in chess was founded in the National Physical Education and Sports Science Institute, in order to improve the theoretical level and technical level of chess. Researchers were staffed and graduate students were recruited. Chess major was also set in the National Sport University, where students studying chess were recruited.
