Dutchman Who Did Not Drink Beer. He Also Surprised My Wife Nina by Showing up with Flowers at the Lenox Hill Hospital Just Before She Gave Birth to My Son Mitchell
168 The Bobby Fischer I Knew and Other Stories Dutchman who did not drink beer. He also surprised my wife Nina by showing up with flowers at the Lenox Hill Hospital just before she gave birth to my son Mitchell. I hadn't said peep, but he had his quiet ways of finding out. Max was quiet in another way. He never discussed his heroism during the Nazi occupation. Yet not only did he write letters to Alekhine asking the latter to intercede on behalf of the Dutch martyrs, Dr. Gerard Oskam and Salo Landau, he also put his life or at least his liberty on the line for several others. I learned of one instance from Max's friend, Hans Kmoch, the famous in-house annotator at AI Horowitz's Chess Review. Hans was living at the time on Central Park West somewhere in the Eighties. His wife Trudy, a Jew, had constant nightmares about her interrogations and beatings in Holland by the Nazis. Hans had little money, and Trudy spent much of the day in bed screaming. Enter Nina. My wife was working in the New York City welfare system and managed to get them part-time assistance. Hans then confided in me about how Dr. E greased palms and used his in fluence to save Trudy's life by keeping her out of a concentration camp. But mind you, I heard this from Hans, not from Dr. E, who was always Max the mum about his good deeds. Mr. President In 1970, Max Euwe was elected president of FIDE, a position he held until 1978. -

Introduction in the Year 1840, Our Continent, in Terms of Chess, Was A
Introduction In the year 1840, our continent, in terms of chess, was a wasteland. Certainly there were important chess masters and self-sacrificing chess devotees at that time, but their intentions and yearnings had no possibility of being realized. The intellectual seeds that were to be sown remained in a latent state. It was reserved for a later time to bring them to flower and ripeness. The muzzling of the various chess clubs and of the press made the exchange of ideas for the most part impossible. The exorbitant postage fees at that time made the sending of letters a privilege of the rich. The book trade—today a world-transforming power—was still in its infancy. The publication of books was therefore a very risky venture for the publisher and for the author a hardly sensible enterprise. Consequently, new ideas could find only a limited distribution. The result was the complete stagnation of intellectual life in all fields. The launching of a chess column in the Leipzig Illustrirten Zeitung (1846), and, in a few years, the founding of the Deutsche Schachzeitung , signified the beginning of a new era in the art of chess. It was an occasion to rejoice (a fact that probably can no longer be appreciated by today’s generation) when the Austrian censor board graciously permitted their beloved “subjects,” who up to that time had been limited to the meager diet of the official Wiener Zeitung , the additional reading matter in the Leipzig Illustrirten. This paper and the Deutsche Schachzeitung were the centers around which the scattered atoms of the chess world became crystallized. -
