Sep-11-05    Fr. T: See http://www.bcmchess.co.uk/britbase/... for a photo of a young Victor Berger with some legendary names. Occasionally, Victor's last name appears as Buerger. May-03-08    Wone Jone: I take it this isn't the Victor Berger who was a Socialist congressman from Wisconsin in the 1920's. Or is it?
