Dear Shogi Fans:

        This is Dick Iwakura of Hong Kong Shogi Club. For the Ryu-O match
        held in next week in L.A., our members took the flight yesterday.

        1. Kunio Nishibori -- 4 Dan

        2. Takuya Ishida ---- 4 Dan


        They wish to play the games with many U.S. Shogi players.
        Thanks in advance.

        Many members of Hong Kong Shogi Club participated in last year
        Beijing match but L.A. is too far for us.

        I personaly hope Tanigawa (9 Dan), who is really under good
        condition now,  will beat Habu Ryu-O in L.A.


                                                Regards

                                                Dick Iwakura
