Biographical data
Name: Egri, Lajos  
   Also known as: Lajos Reich
Born: 1 Mar. 1902
Died: 24 Aug. 1952
 
Notes:
Di Felice has 'Egri, Laszlo' playing for Hungary against Yugoslavia in 1948, citing the British Chess Magazine, but 'Egri, Lajos' at other events. I will guess that the former is just an error for the latter.
