When they refer to ''Modern,'' and ''make it Modern,'' casual-like make it a martini -- as if everybody understands it to mean Joyce's recent medley -- the real Modern Chess to a whole region of the world in the 1970s is Gabriel Maura's here. By itself Modern was having had more tournaments than CVPage has conducted for all its 3000 CVs. Tournaments in Caribbean, Mexico, Venezuela til Maura died in 1980s.
