Apr-06-08 | | Autoreparaturwerkbau: <syracrophy> He'll turn 108 this year, which is no wonder however, since French are really long-lived. Just remember Jeanne Calment. P.S. The above was a joke. He died already (in 1994), but CG.com forgot about him. Still, 94 years is respectable age. |

 | | GrahamClayton: “Robert Crépeaux, railway engineer, former student of the Ecole Polytechnique, was therefore declared champion of France for 1924. Aged only 23, our young champion represented the Cercle de Grasse, his hometown, which will have the honor to keep the Coupe du Progrès. Robert Crépeaux demonstrates great ease in his combinations, to which he adds great sureness of appreciation. We see that he admirably benefited from the advice of Muffang, whose classmate he is at the Ecole Polytechnique. The student has shown himself worthy of the master.” https://www.europe-echecs.com/art/r... |
