B-B4 4 P-QKt4 The strength in the Evan's litlte in the weakness of Black's caused by his accepting the Gambit Therefore in my opinion Black's best answer is to decline the proffered 5 P-QB3 6 P-Q4 7 Castles The path of is beset with temptation pawn-snatcher Black's move is quite poor for it allows White without loss of tempo to remove his QKt from the path of the QR Black has no time for such tactics since his develop- other attackin' 2 2 RxKt! 23 RxBP 2 1 RxQdisch 25 PxQ And now White starts his as pretty a copieces as can be The tournament now in progress among the members of the Mount Vernon Chess Club is traveling along under a full head of sail Dr Anthony Blasi still maintains the sole unbroken record in the course of play having met five opponents to date and having yet to be beaten Second to him is Miss Henriette Eolis who has the enviable score of 4-1 White has now managed Jo open up the two center files for his rooks which in conjunction with the diagonal attack by his Bishops present a most difficult defense for Black in view of his retarded development.
It now begins to be obvious that Black’s loss of on his seventh move placed in serious jeopardy 11 Q-Kt3 This is a sides being principles of move is Q-B3 reserved for where it in turn winning answer so cannot see it this by White should result in further loss of material by him and vors Black by lire the White 21 P-B7 20 R(Q7)xKt 21 B-B B-B4ch R-B7cIi RxKtPch R-B7ch K-Kt 30 Ry B-Ktach R-Q7ch B-R6ch Kt-B6 The foregoing many traps and ford much pleasure to the expo- iieuis ot attacKing was up against a siderable strength complimented on offprint? ’' tiiutsy m Dll knowing full well that the slighttest slip on his part would result in certain defeat for him The fact that Cromelin lost is not to his discredit as a player When he becomes a little more seasoned in tournament play we can expect fine attacking play from one who struggles through a hard defense Problem No 5 White: K on KR3: Q on QKtS-B s on Q2 and QB8 Kt on K4- P's on KR 5 KKt2 K6 Q3 and Q4 (10 picees) Black: K on K4 R on K6 P's up K2 KB3 and KKt6 (5 pieces) White to move and Mate in Two 19 R-Q7 P-B7 ?? How about PxR now? I see no immediate win for White QxPch and K-B if Kt-Q3 Therefore answer pawn by 4B-Kt3 B-R4 ment is already far Inferior to his opponent's 7P-Q3 and if 8 Q-Kt3 Q-B3 9 PxP Kt-K2 with certainly a better chance than 7 BxP leads 8 KtxB 9 r-K5 the QKt 12 R-Kch Kt-K2 If 12 K-B then B-R3 wins the exchange 13 R-R3 P-QB4 14 QH-Q Q-B? 15 B-KtaCh K-B 16 BxP!
