Aug-28-12  thomastonk: On June 27, 1943 Max Euwe as president of the NSB declared in Utrecht Arnold Van Foreest a honorary member of the organisation. In a 4 player event, Foreest and Fick shared 1st and 2nd place with 2 points. Fick's domicile then is given as Nijmegen.

Aug-28-12  sneaky pete: Mr. Fick died in 1971. He was "Raadsheer" (the old-fashioned name of the "Loper" or "Bishop") and vice-president of the "High Council" (Supreme Court).

Aug-28-12  thomastonk: <Stonehenge> Yes, of course, but since I mentioned Euwe ... ;-)

<sneaky pete> Wow! Even in Gaige's Chess Personalia there is only his birthday. Thank you very much. I have now tried to find a death notice in some newspapers of 1971, but without success. Then I found "De Hoge Raad in persoon: benoemingen in de Hoge Raad der Nederlanden 1838-2002" by P. J. van Koppen and J. ten Kate at Google-books, but the period after 1945 is not shown. :-(
