We have had many ineuiries about solving of problems and are therefore publishing the following interesting articles by B. G. Laws from his book entitled "Chess Problems and How to Solve Them." (Continued from last Sunday) MIRROR MATE A mate in which the King's field Is occupied by the Black King. It is seldom seen in two-movers, but is effectively pretty in longer problems. Strictly a mirror mate Is a model mate, but some writers, however, do not exact absolute Purity.
PIN MODEL A mate which is economically clean modified by the presence of a . White Queen. Rook or Bishop, used to pin a piece or Pawn which, without the pinning restraint, would capture (or interfere with! the mating agent. See Diagrams No. 3 and 4.
In the mating position (No. 3) Black's K4 is occupied by his Queen and the square is also controlled by the White Bishop. Without the pinning Bishop there would be no Mate. If the White Pawn is removed and a White Rook added at Ql with Black Bishop at Q6 the Mate would equally be a "pin model." Diagram No. 3
No, 4 is an instance where the Black piece is not In the King's field. Such a Mate is likewise regarded as a pin model." The same would apply If instead of Black Queen a Bishop or Rodk stood at K3, but not so if a Knight or Pawn, as neither of these could intertera with tne Bishop s check. Diagram No. 4 (Continued next Sunday).
