Mar-29-06		dakgootje: In some way connected to Richard Wagner?

Aug-09-07		vonKrolock: The connections You could imagine between a Chess player from Hamburg and a musician from Leipzig!? I'll not even dare to relate Richard Wagner with a musician born in Leipzig and called Wagner too, who lived in my city, because Wagner is a quite widely found surname in Central Europe

Aug-09-07		whiteshark: Crumbs from the history of the chess society <Kieler Schachgesellschaft von 1884>: Gleich nach dem Ende des Krieges nahm die Kieler Schachgesellschaft ihren Spielbetrieb wieder auf. Johannes Metger, <Heinrich Wagner> und Alfred Brinckmann wurden die St�tzen des Vereins. Wieder begann die Schachgesellschaft mit einem Vergleichskampf gegen L�beck den sie mit 14:10 gewann. ... Brinckmann richtete zu Ehren seines Lehrmeisters Metger ein Meisterturnier aus, dem er den Namen "Johannes-Metger-Jubil�umsturnier" gab. Sieger wurde <Wagner> vor S�misch. Danach folgten Schweinburg, Sch�nmann, Pahl und Brinckmann. Mit <Heinrich Wagner> begannen erneut Simultanvorstellungen. Reti spielte Blindsimultan an 12 Brettern. Emanuel Lasker war 1925 in Kiel und Bogoljubow kam 1926. Es folgten Wagner und S�misch. Nach zwei Simultanveranstaltungen die Brinckmann gab, besuchten Bogoljubow, Nimzowitsch und Euwe die Kieler Schachgesellschaft. Source: http://www.kieler-sg.de/ksg_geschic...
