Feb-06-23  WilhelmThe2nd: The death date given here for Loran reads "died May-1919, 33 years old". Does anyone know the source for this?

The Berlin journal 'Novaya Russkaya Kniga', in its March, 1922 issue (page 38), notes:

"Nik. Evg. Loran, formerly an employee of the Odessa newspapers and editor-publisher of the magazine 'Shakhmaty', fled from Odessa to Romania in February 1921. At the present time he is working in the editorial office of 'Bukharestskikh Novostei' ['The Bucharest News']."

  Stonehenge: Tkachiev's <Alekhine's Odessa Secrets> has <1885-not before May 1919>.

I guess that's where the mistake here came from.

Mar-03-24  WilhelmThe2nd: Ken Whyld's book 'Chess Columns: A List' (Olomouc: Moravian Chess, 2002), page 62, gives N. E. Loran as editor of a chess column in the 'Bukarester Presa' [Whyld notes that the title might simply be 'Presa'] (Bucharest, Romania). A column appeared in the 01/04/1923 issue. The reference given for this is <Deutsches Wochenschach>, 1923, page 46.
