PRESS RELEASE 24 of 2003

Truong and Nolan Appointed to USCF Management

During its regular meeting at the 2003 US Open Championship in Los
Angeles, California, the USCF Executive Board has unanimously agreed
to add two new senior staff members. FM Paul Truong has been named the
Director of Marketing and Public Relations. This is an unpaid
position. Mike Nolan has assumed the position of Chief Operating
Officer.

The additions are a sign of the Executive Board's firm determination
to take all steps necessary to return the organization to good health.
Recognizing that time is critical, the newly restructured Executive
Board is moving quickly to correct past problems at the USCF.
Aggressive plans are being developed to substantially increase
revenues while cutting unnecessary expenses.

Mr. Truong, who will report directly to the Executive Board, is
particularly tasked with bringing in new revenues. He has 16 years of
high-level marketing, management and public relations experience. Paul
also has 33 years of chess experience, as well as being rated a master
by FIDE, the international regulating body for chess. The FIDE
master's long involvement with promoting chess, including the creation
of the United States Women's Chess Olympiad Program, will help him to
promote and enhance the popularity of chess nationwide.

Mr. Nolan will also report directly to the Executive Board, and will
be responsible for overseeing all USCF operations. He has long been
active in USCF governance, including extended service as a member of,
and Parliamentarian to, the Board of Delegates, the Federation's
highest ruling body. In addition to his chess credentials, he has an
MBA and has taught college courses on management.

The Executive Board has begun a nationwide search for a person to
replace Frank Niro, who recently resigned as Executive Director for
reasons of health.

Beatriz Marinello, the newly elected President of the Federation
expressed her happiness and satisfaction that the appointment of Paul
and Mike will help jumpstart the USCF on the road to a prosperous
future.
