By Betsy Dynako   
December 24, 2009
Identify the silhouetted players in the Betsy Dynako photographs below to earn one of four one-year membership or membership extensions to the Internet Chess Club. The grand prizes will go to the first four correct answers or the four best answers received by NOON EST December 30, 2009. Send your answers to CLO editor Jennifer Shahade at [email protected] with the subject line 2009 Holiday Contest. Be sure to include your name or USCF ID number. You must be a USCF member to win.

The first person to answer the bonus question correctly will also pick up a copy of Marcel Duchamp: The Art of Chess by Francis M. Naumann, Bradley Bailey and Jennifer Shahade.

The bonus question will also serve as a tiebreaker in case of two tied answers for the 4th ICC membership. Otherwise, the tie will be broken by the member who submitted their entry first.
