Pal Benko was born #onthisday in 1928. A Hungarian-American chess player, author, and composer of endgame studies and problems, Benko was a 2-time World Championship Candidate.
Spassky's salary during his reign as a champion was 500 soviet rubles per month (a soviet minister's salary at the time) and his seconds Geller and Krogius 250 rubles. Seems like nothing, compared to what Carlsen now earns, but in USSR most people earned no more than 150 rubles.
