I would appreciate recommendations of a chess program that runs on the 
MacPlus and the Mac IIsi.

Check out NetChess. It was recently installed on Sumex and is quite nice!
(You need to be hooked up to another Mac through an AppleTalk network...)

I don't know if Sargon or ChessMaster work on the IIsi...
