THE INCOMPLETE BLOCK TWO-MOVER When, on the examination of the Initial position, it is found that all the mates are in order with the exception of one. it becomes apparent the problem does not come under the category of pure waiting strategy, very often but one or two mates only are already provided for, and there remain several defenses to which no effective response ia evident. In these cases it Is useless to try moves of the "masterly Inactivity" order. Necessarily White must ha on the lookout and make his move forceful In those directions where his domination is not felt, at the same time not relinquishing his other powers. Strategy of this character has been referred fo as "waiting,'' but this is clearly not quite accurate, since the attack has to re-arragire ite troops to forelay defense unprovided for in th setting.
