Correspondence Chess from the Sports Illustrated Archives
05.23.16 A ChessMaine.net reader found an article from a 1980 Sports Illustrated article in which a Maine correspondence chess player is quoted. We bring you the article in its entirety in our efforts to document all things chess in Maine.
For extra credit see if you can name this Los Angeles Rams quarterback from the 1980-81 season.
Thanks to Roger Morin for contributing to this report.
