St Louis. Radio 4 programme

I heard this programme on the radio about how St. Louis is becoming a Chess capital. Its quite interesting. The city has become a world centre for the game of chess. Its status has partly been achieved by funding from a controversial multi-millionaire, whose childhood included time in an orphanage.

It compares the chess theme of St Louis with the local problems the area has.
