HELP WANTED

I have the Scottish Chess report on Euwe's two day visit in 1972, which included a simultaneous display in Glasgow. Only the bare score is given: against 25 opponents, Euwe won 13, drew 8 and lost 4.

I am looking for further information about participants in this simul, and any games. Ian Marks tells me that he took part, as did other Cathcart CC members Alan Shaw and Frank Whitelaw. Frank apparently won a nice game that may have been printed in Gerald Bonner's newspaper column. Others that Ian can recall were Jim Dick and John Johnstone.
