  GrahamClayton: From the "Boca Raton News" of October 21, 1976:

"Try out your chess skill

Sixteen-year old Deerfield Beach High School student, Gregg Small, will challenge 30 opponents in his first simultaneous exhibitionof the game of chess at 1 p.m Saturday at the Boca Raton Mall.

Small, who has played chess for the past five years and who has gained national recognition for his game, is a former state high school champion and just 60 rating points below "master".

To play 30 people at one time, Small will move inside a square of tables making one move on each board as he continues from player to player. There is no charge to watch or play. All participants must provide their own regulation sized chess set. Seating is on a first come basis."

<Phony Benoni> So, you're saying he is not Gregg H Small then?

We better start looking for his real name amirite.

After being asked by Ham Porter if he wanted a s'more, Scotty Smalls replies several times with the question, "Some more what?". After his frustration grew with Scotty, Ham replies with, "You're killing me Smalls."
