Chess Life by
Parrthenon
THE NEW EDITOR
By Larry Parr
Despite all the unfounded attacks on Kalev Pehme before he even began editing
the January 2004 issue of Chess Life (which was twice the size of the one in
December) I see no reason to criticize his performance so far.
As a matter of fact, the USCF website says that the February issue featuring
Kasparov on the cover ("he goes deeper into the matrix") will be mailed...

Fischer's Encounter with Hoffman at the Manhattan Chess Club by
Joel V. Benjamin
Does anyone have first-hand, or even accurate second-hand, knowledge
of Bobby Fischer's encounter with Asa Hoffman at the Manhattan Chess
Club?
I was there and remember it very well - I've read other accounts that
differ from my recollection in several respects.
Fischer gave Hoffman 20-1 odds at blitz. I don't remember if there
were any time odds given by Fischer. Hoffman won the first game...

Suggestion for Crafty by
DDEckerslyke
I did post a variation on this suggestion a while ago and received one reply
but I couldn't get it to work so here goes again:
I use Crafty as an opponent in endgames (eg KNNvKP from Silman's 'Essential
Chess Endings'). Unfortunately it often resigns before I get a chance to
play the endings out. What I mean by this is that just because it can see
the mate doesn't mean that I can. It would be...

Pillsbury's umbrella by
Jeremy Spinrad
In the hot summer of 1896, there were three very bizarre disputes in various New
York chess clubs. One involved a question of whether a letter had been
inappropriately opened; this case even went to the New York Supreme Court. A
second involved an innocuous speech which was interpreted by Steinitz as an
attack on him (he was not even there for the speech, but hearing one line led him
to...

Beatriz Marinello has gone to Chile for a month by
Sam Sloan
Beatriz Marinello has gone to Chile for a month
I have just received the shocking news that USCF President, Beatriz
Marinello has gone to Chile for a month. She is apparently sick and in
the hospital.
I wish her a speedy recovery.
The question is who is going to be running the USCF while she is gone.
