If Susan Polgar wants to organize her own tournament in Lubbock, Texas

award scholarships to Texas Tech University, everybody will applaud.
Nobody will object.

However, what she is trying to do here is taking a long established
tournament, the Denker Tournament of High School Championships,
grabbing it away from the USCF and converting it into a Polgar
tournament.


Sam I do not follow your leaps in logic. She was asked by members of
the Denker family to do this so as to associate it more closely with
SPICE.




If Arnold Denker were alive today, he would be appalled. He would
never stand for this.


Maybe, maybe not. I think his family is better suited to know what was
on his mind.


Similarly, by holding a "Susan Polgar World Open" and a "Susan Polgar
National Open" she is infringing on the real World Open and the real
National Open.



No.



It is feared that next she will be trying to take over the big USCF
scholastic events. For example, she could take the National Elementary
Championship and call it the Susan Polgar National Elementary
Championship.


Who fears it Sam?


And, she has not even been elected yet. Imagine what havoc she will
cause if she actually gets elected and is still doing these things?

Sam Sloan


Yeah? Something might actually get done and that would make others
really look bad,wouldn't it?
