Biographical data
Name: König, Imre R.  
   Also known as: Mirko König
Born: 9 Feb. 1901
Died:
 
Notes:
Svetosor of 22 Nov. 1923 has 'Em. König', who I take to be Imre König. Svetosor of 25 Oct. 1923 has 'Alf. König', but this seems to be an error for Emmerich (Imre) König, perhaps because his opponent in the Brno - Vienna Schlecter Club match was Alf. Teller. The Neue Wiener Schachzeitung of Oct. 1923 (p.262) has 'Emmerich König' playing for the Schlechter Club.
