The ICCA is pleased to congratulate Mr. Schmitt and Mr. Lutz for their success. Each of them receive $1,250 from Hegener & Glaser, sponsor of this scholarship, to be used at any college or university of their choice.

Paul,
a chess program written by Christopher Lutz and Michael Schmitt in Turbo Pascal [1], and participant of the WMCCC 1989 in Portorož. Paul was inspired by the Basic program description of the German Data Becker computer chess book by Rainer Bartel, Hans-Joachim Kraas and Günther Schrüfer [2]. The evaluation was a little bit ad hoc and not that well tuned. Paul happily exchanged its fianchetto bishop for the knight and doubled c pawn, which took Christopher Lutz, already International Master at that time, on his own responsibility [3].
