CHESS PLAYERS are accusto med to solving riddles. So I feel free, therefore, to start ofT here with a little puzzlc my5elf. Every chess tournament comes into being through the col lective action of three forces: firs t, the theoretical plann ing; second, the overcoming of fin ancial olJstac les; and, third, the practical efTcctuation. As rega rds lite internat ional competition at Vevey, each of these forccs wcre embodied in a s ingle individual.

CHESS REVIEW, AUCUST, 1953 235 Analysis and synthesis of middle game play by I. A. HOROWITZ

REMOVAL OF A GUARD The forces of the chessboard are in ter! inked in varying d~grees, either directly or remotely. Hence even a single move affects th e co rrelation of all the units. Between certain units, too, there is sometimes a close, direct tie : one protects th e other or the move­ ment of one clears a path to the other. In just these circumstances, the tactical motif, the removal of a guard, is born. The dynamics of this moti f are si mple : attack a defending unit, compel its retreat (o r capture) and then pick off the defenseless unit. In the application of th is motif, particularly, there come to the fore those elementary tactics: tile Removal of a guard by a check : Thc Black Queen is lost after capture, the check and the threat. Such forcing moves I B:.:Pt as the Queen's protection is removed by the attack on set of{ the combination after it has been prepared. its guardian King. Removal of a guard is close kin to the motif previously discussed (page 202, ] ul y issue), the si mply overtaxed, with at least one more burden than overworked piece. In fact, the distinction between it can hand le. In the removal of a guard, the defend­ them is hairline.
