Jan-02-05    Benzol: Is this Christopher Barclay Heath? Jun-30-05    sneaky pete: <Benzol> No idea, but maybe this helps. In a newspaper clipping on the 1923 Southport Open Major (won by Alekhine) participant <Heath> is described as a "tough" amateur from Dundee. He scored 5 points from 11 games, so I imagine he was invited again in 1924 to play Rubinstein. Jul-01-05    Chessical: C Heath was the Scottish chess champion 1924. Aug-20-08    sneaky pete: Did I say Southport? It's Portsmouth of course.
