ChessB oard

.... i was working on the below code when i ran
into some imence social problems and had had to
put it aside. now i must restart. any tips?

// Program ChessMain

import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.event.*;

class ChessMain{
        JFrame frame;
        Container con;
        ChessBoard cb;
        int numRows;
        int numCols;
        int squareSize;
        Color color1, color2; // choice
        Point[][] squarePos;

        public ChessMain(int sqSize, int nR, int nC) {
          frame = new JFrame("ChessMain");
          frame.setResizable(false);
          frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
          con = frame.getContentPane();
          Point pos = null;
          Piece pce = new Piece("init",1);
          cb = new ChessBoard(8, 8, 100);

     con.add(cb, BorderLayout.CENTER);
     //frame.setLocation(300, 300); for later
     frame.pack();
     frame.setVisible(true);
   }

public static void main(String[] args){
   Point pos;
   JLabel Pawn;
   new ChessMain(8, 8,10);
   putPiece(Pawn,pos);

}
}

class ChessBoard extends JPanel{
   int numRows;
   int numCols;
   int squareSize;

   public ChessBoard(int row, int col, int sqsiz){

     numRows = row;
     numCols = col;
     squareSize = sqsiz;
     setPreferredSize(new Dimension(squareSize * col, squareSize * row));
     setLayout(null);
     // i want to see it ???ChessBoard.setVisible(true);

   }
   // right here: way confused, seemsas though i need the Point not an int

   public void putPiece(JLabel piece, Point position){
         piece.setBounds(position.x, position.y, piece.getHeight(),
piece.getWidth());
         }

   @Override
   public void paintComponent(Graphics g){
      super.paintComponent(g);
      int x, y;

     x = y = 0;
     for (int r = 0; r < numRows; ++r){
       for (int c = 0; c < numCols; ++c){
         if ((r % 2 == 0 && c % 2 == 0) || (r % 2 != 0 && c % 2 != 0)){
           g.setColor(Color.cyan);
         }
         else{
           g.setColor(Color.yellow);
         }
         g.fillRect(x, y, squareSize, squareSize);
         x += squareSize;
       }
       y += squareSize;
       x = 0;
     }
     }
     }

  /*this class is the problem ...*/
  class Piece extends JLabel{
        String name;
        int size;
        Piece pce;

    public Piece(String nam, Point siz){
    super(nam, JLabel.CENTER);
    name = nam;
    int sizex = siz.x;
    int sizey = siz.y;
    setPreferredSize(new Dimension(sizex,sizey)); // seems like thid
dhould work
          Point size = siz;
          int height = getHeight();
          int width = getWidth();
          //pce = new Piece("Pawn",5);
          pce.setBounds(size.x, size.y, height, width);
          cb.putPiece(pce, size);
     }
     }
