Corneth respectively) – the results will be summarized in a record

to give us a "preview".

Tony Gillam being under the spell of chess literature!

Michael
Negele, Tony Gillam and John Donaldson seem to have the time of their
life!

for further snapshots of the day. |
We can only be grateful to the Swiss Museum of Games for the decision
to provide such a nice room for the collection of our "eponym".
Again many thanks, also for the kind hospitality on this occasion. We
have willingly confirmed further support for this idea – our members
are appealed to back up in word and deed.
It is of prior interest in La Tour-de-Peilz to have current subscriptions
of leading chess magazines, here the “reborn” Deutsche
Schachzeitung volume 2006 should make a start.
From No 6/2006 the "Deutsche Schachzeitung"
appears on the title page again!

Richard
Forster giving a review on the Ken Whyld collection |
Subsequent to the tour which filled all of us with quite a lot of enthusiasm
Richard Forster gave a short survey of what is available in the collection
of the museum. With pleasure we made the offer to publish a printed catalogue
of the Ken Whyld Library. And Tony Gillam found very personal words of
remembrance of his long-standing friend Ken.
