L.A. Times Problem No. 329 by H.S. Isham, Los Angeles. White mates in two.
FEN 7B/4b2N/8/1N6/BpP1k1P1/6Pn/3KP3/4n3 w - - 0 1
Key: This position may be called N.G. The intended key was B-Q, but this is defeated by black bishop move. 1. NQ6ch forces mate on next move, but this could not be called a problem. The composer of this position was for a long time official tester of problems for a leading chess magazine and the fact that his own little composition might need testing never entered the chess editor's mind. We are very sorry to impose such a position on our solvers and will be more careful hereafter.
