Jude Acers

Carratera)

Age 9, Third Grade |
1st Prize - Winning entry in the
non-fiction writing category for St. Bernard Parish, Louisiana
”I like to play chess. Last year when I wasn’t
as good as I am right now, I went to the French Quarter with my dad. We
found a chess champion named Jude Acers, and we asked if I could play
him. He said, “OK, but you have to pay $5.”
I started to play, and I lost in three moves. I
was stunned. I was surprised because I’d never met someone like him
before. He told me my mistakes and taught me a new move, the Castle.
After we went home, my dad asked us if we wanted to
meet a very good 17 year old chess player named Drew. I said,
“sure.” He became my chess coach, and that’s how I learned to play
chess.” |
Our thanks to Russell Miller for these pictures,
