US-CHESS-MURPHY
TO GO WITH AFP STORY BY VIRGINIE MONTET "LIFESTYLE-GAME-CHESS-HOMELESS"
Tom Murphy, a 49-year-old homeless man, plays chess at Dupont Circle in Washington 08 October 2007. Murphy sleeps on a bench, but he is king of chess during the day at Washington's Dupont Circle, where he dazzles beginners and masters alike with his winning moves on the park's stone chessboards. He makes what little money he has from teaching his prodigious knowledge of the game to passersby for a few dollars. "He has the title of expert in chess. This is the second highest American title; above him are master. So it means he is quite good," said Washington's Chess Center director David Mehler. AFP PHOTO/Nicholas KAMM
