“In 1935, an international team tournament was held in Warsaw. Alekhine played top board for France, of which he was a naturalized citizen. However, on this trip he arrived at the Polish border without a passport. When the officials asked him for his papers he replied: ‘I am Alekhine, chess champion of the world. I have a cat called Chess. I do not need papers.’ The matter had to be straightened out by the highest authorities.”—The Psychology of the Chess Player, by Reuben Fine, [Dover 1967]

A rising young master, Alechine, has defeated Bardelebin in a match by 4½ to ½. And yet out of 24 games played simultaneously recently in Berlin, the veteran won 22 and drew the remainder!
