CHESS Games— Problems By Paul L Cromelin in Black —
The notes that follow are on the game played by Mrs Paul L Cromelin against Alekhine on November 6 at the Hungaria International Chess Club New York City or the benefit of those who may not have kept last week’s column which contained the full score a condensed notation of the moves is included Alekhine White Mrs Cromelin Blach Giuoco Piano P-K4 P-K4 N-KB3 N-QB3 B-B3 N-B3 P-Q3' B-B4 B-K3 B-N3 N-B3 P-Q3 P-KR3 B-K3 O-O O-O B-KN5 N-K2!: So far the game promises nothing hence Black decides on this seemingly terrible defence with the idea of K-R and R-KN if Alekhine’s direct attack can be beaten off the two moves mentioned providing a direct attack on White’s King K-R occurs at move 15 R-KN occurs at move 23 quite a while later rtiut according to plan!
Since considerable comment on White's continuations has been' heard we are greatly interested in receiving analysises from our readers of the play from this point If you think that White should have won after 10 BxN send in the continuation that you feel would turn the trick We’d like to have it!

The Daily Argus Chess Team on its victory over Alekhine on Election Day commenting that’ the win “was some grades higher than merely satisfactory” As for Mrs Cromelin he writes “or her downing of the world’s champion she is entitled to such a triumph the glory of which would cause the shades of Pompey and Caesar to shrivel with envy She is now indeed the feminine Chess Laureate!” We are afraid that we’ll have to be very meek about asking her for two eggs for breakfast after this Q6ch K-B5 P-N6 wins both pawns and draws game ended as follows: K-B5 P-N6 K-B4 P-N7 and White resigned for if now K-B3 Black wins a piece by R-K8! Note to The Daily appear day.
example of the double unpinning of the White Queen The Key Move is 1 B-K4 White threatens mate by 2 R-R6 In order to prevent this Black must block the third rank Both of these blocks by the Pawn or the Rook “unpin" the Queen which mates on R7 or Q according to Black’s block The try of 1 B-R7 is defeated by 1 R-B4 which gives the King a flight square at Kt8 After 1 B-B5 RxB there is no mate And after the third try of 1 B-Q3 R-B3 the White Bishop’ prevents the Queen -from mating on Q square Correct solutions were received from A J Bastine and J C.
