Default If you must meet Arnold Denker

This week there appears a new memoire of Arnold Denker at Chessville
including Arnold's favorite game [score given below].

(9/23) Chessville Vignettes: If You Must Meet Arnold Denker, a remembrance
by Larry Parr. Denker, former US Champion, and once among the top-20
players in the world, about whom Al Horowitz once wrote, "He can handle an
attack with a fertility of ideas and richness of imagination that are rare."
