WHITE (9 men)

After our team did so well at Moscow it seems ' ungrateful to them to retaliate by giving a game we lost; but, to look at it slightly differently, it the Bulgarian fourth board can play as well as he did in this game, it underlines how well we did to win the match against Bulgaria 2}-11 in spite of this and to hold our own in the finals as a whole.

Kt.-0 H 3: since White can no longer meet Kt -K B 3 with P-K 5.

CM Very stronu7 now the game transposes into a verY 'avowable Lopez tor Muck. who has played P-Q 14 4 without Wst having to go to Q K 4 with his Kt. (e) Premature. Better P-K K 3 or else P.-C) 3.

Id) 9 11-Q 3 is rather belie, followed litter by 11-.K 3. (r) Rest of game is !augh, out on Q side, where lilack'S advantage in space and his two bishops ultimately prove decisive.

White (f hite must play to block any Black pawn advance on Q side so that Black bishops may not develop their full power. (6) Weak: 'his is a bad square for knight-bettel Kt-K 2 sitting tight: but-particularly for a player of Milner. Hurry's temperament-It is very bard to sit oght in these positions.

(h) Fatal: tic must attempt to hold position without ma eschunae. White's position is very uncomloriable, but by accurate defensive play 01 a passive kind he might still lust hold it.

(0 Now Black finds a series of very fine attacking inovta (I) 33 Kt-Kt 1 is a shade better, but the game is ,ositionally lost. to White sealed 43 Kt s R and resigned without resuming play after the adjournment as he comes out Piece down. If 43 Kt x P, Men 43 . . . 12-B 6 ch wins or 43 Kt (5)-B 4, R-E1 6 ch; 44 K.-K 2, 8-K1 4. A 000 game by Tringov.

Black self-block, Q-K battery.
