THE PHILADELPHIA SUNDAY MORNING, JANUARY 18, 1920 Chess and Checkers Gam Solve fhe PEdog? The first answer stands no more chance than the last, the only time limit is that all answers must be received at The Inquirer office on or before the first Thursday following the Sunday on which the puzzles are published. Any person may send one or more answers, but each must be on a different slip, and each slip must stand on its own merit; that is, if a person were to send in ten lists and the ten collectively have all the correct answers, the person will not win. To be correct, a single list must have them all right. Each picture contains either one or two names, never mor than two. When there are two, both should be given.

Only one prize will be awarded to any one person, except where there are no more corre answers than there are prizes to be awarded. No object or figure should be used more than once. The contest is open to everybody, and when the number of correct answers exceeds the number of prizes offered, the prizes will be awarded to th neatest and best appearing answers. The coupon is printed for the convenience of solvers, and to facilitate the work in the Puzzle Department, but the solvers are not required to make use of it. SEND ALL ANSWERS TO POSTOFFICE BOX 1105, PHILA PA.

Columbia tow Answers and awards The correct answers to the Geographical Puzzle published two weeks ago in The Sunday Inquirer are: BRITISH COLUMBIA TOWNS NO. 2 Cascade (Cask, A D) Spillamacheen-Trall (Spill A machine Trail) Flagstone-Gateway (Flag Stone Gateway) Glacier (Gee Lace Ear) Pavey-Fireisle (PajV Fire Isle) Sandon-Huil Beach (Sand on hull Beach) Briscoe (Brisk E) Dog Creek-Ducks (Dog Creek Ducks) is to which Morphy replied Castlea. Steinitz, in annotating this game suggests the following continuation for White's fifth move: 5 KtxP; KtsKt 6 P-Q4; B-QKt5 7 PxKt; KtxP 8 Q-Q4; KtxKt 9 PxKt" B-K2 10 B-KB4 and White has the bette game.A (d) B-K2 would have been better play. (e) White now neatly wins a Pawn. (f) Reichhelm suggests P-KR3 as a safer continuation.

(g) White sacrifices the exchange deliberately to relieve himself of the attack from the Kt and obtains a good game. (h) Had Black now played sqM P-KB4 would have followed. (i) White has now obtained three Pawns for the exchars (k) We do not like Black's advance of his King. He should have kept his King within reach of White's advanced. KP and played for a draw.

Problem No. 1571 Is solved tij Q-K q. Problem No. 1572 is solved by Kt-Q4ch. Solutions received from Marshall E.

Darby, J. Eriksson, Nicholas Weil and John M. Zook. TheNiolution to the two-move problem given below will readily be found by our solvers. The problem, however, has a history.

It was 'the first brought to general public attention by being published in Reichhelm's chess column in the Philadelphia Times -in 1887. with the statement that it was the only known example of a problem by the great Paul Morphy. Shortly after its publication General John Til-son, of Quincy, wrote to Reichhelm stating that the problem was composed by Morphy before he was ten years of age. Ernest Morphy (Paul Morphys uncle) showed the position to the General before Morphy had made his great reputation. At that time he also gave General Tilson an account of the marked ability of his young nephew, always speaking of him as ''Leetle Paul." for Paul as a bov was a small child (he was also small in stature as a man).

The uncle had a great affection for his young nephew and informed General Tilson that when Morphy first met Lowenthal at New Orleans the little boy invariably stood at the board while contesting his games, so as to be able to look well down on the position which he could not do if he were seated. PROBLEM NO. 1575 By Paul Morphy BLACK FOUR PIECES We learned a few days ago with deep regret that James Roberts died at his home in West Philadelphia the latter part of December. In the early seventies James Roberts was one of the prominent chess players of this city. When the Philadelphia Chess Club was' organized in 1874 he was elected vice president and in 1800 treasurer of the club.

His first participation in tournament play in this city was in 1875. There were a large number of entries divided into various classes. Seven players qualified in Class A and their scores were as follows: Prizes. Wins. 1 B.

M. Neill 40 2 Jams Roberts 384 3 Jacob Elson 37 4 Harry Davidson 35 5 A. Roberts 32 6 W. H. Sayen 29 7 L.

D. Barbour 29 Julius A. Kaiser and George H. Stout, both participated in this tournament at that time, however, receiving Pawn and two moves from the Class A players. In 1880 Mr.

Roberts also entered the Philadelphia Chess Club Tournament, but retired after losing two games to B( M. Neill. The score of the Class A players in this tournament was as follows: Prizes. Wins. 1 Harry Davidson 16 2 O.

C. Reichhelm 15 3 B. M. Neill 13 4 Jacob Elson 10 5 J. G.

Whiteman .7 6 Li. D. Barbour 6 And in the tournament of 1882 won by O. E. Michaelis, Mr.

Roberts again entered, but retired with a score of 8 wins and 3 losses. James Roberts played in the first match between the Philadelphia Chess Ciub and the Manhattan Chess Club, meeting E. Del-mar in two games, each player scoring the game in which he had the opening. We give below the win by Mr. Roberts.

Later practically all of Mr. Roberts' time was taken up with his work in the Central National Bank, where he was employed for many years. For the- past few years, owing to failing health he had not been actively engaged in business and frequently visited the Mercantile Library at times taking boacds in the simultaneous exhibitions given by Capablanca and Marshall. Of the chess players who were prominent when Mr. Roberts was in his prime there remain now B.

NITRATE SHIPMENTS THROUGH THE CANAL Nitrate formed slightly more than one-fourth of all the cargo which passed through the Panama Canal from the time of its opening to September 1, 1919. It amounted to tons. The Panama route effects a saving of about 3000 nautical miles in the voyage to European ports from Iquique or Arica, the sources of Chilean nitrate shipments.

To New York the saving is about 5000 miles. For a 12-knot ship the voyage to Europe is thus lessened by about ten days and to New York by about seventeen days, with the advantage of cheaper coal by the Canal route. Recently the nitrate shipments have fallen off owing to lack of ships and. decreased demand on account of the cessation of the war. I No.

ENGLISH PROFESSOR INVENTS A NEW STEEL The invention of a new steel, far in advance of any high-speed steel hitherto made, according to a dispatch from London, is claimed by John Oliver Arnold, professor of metallurgy at Sheffield University. Frofessor Arnold, who is said have been the discoverer of vanadinm steel, claims that -the new ateel po-sesscs far more commercial possibiJi-tites, that it is unrivaled in hardness, that in tool form it will remoTe a greater weight than any other steel, and that it possesses comparatively longer life. Professor Arnold, says the newspaper, is prevented under the defense of the' realm act from utilizing his invention industrially.

He is patenting iiis invention in England and America, and will be allowed to proceed with hit American patent on condition that a publishes nothing concerning it. A representative of the America Government, it is said, made a special journey to Sheffield to investigate Professor Arnold's discovery. m- Hon 11 OB mn 100 Prizes Ohis Picture Represents Various Parts of a Clock ANSWERS AND AWARDS The correct answers to the Bag Puzzle are: 1 LAUNDRY 2 FEED 3 SCHOOL 4 PUNCHING 5 SEWINO 6 MESH WINNERS Very nice Loose Leaf Note Books hare been awarded to the following: Allan.

The locomotive was then lifted from its trucks by a derrick and mounted npop the prepared conveyance. Although the route was over rough forest roads, the operation was thus successfully completed. the necessary preparations could be made.

After introducing (50 cubic centimetres of salt solution, 200 cnbic centimetres of blood were gisen. The patient gasped. When another 200 cubic centimetres had been introduced he began breathing and a flicker of pulse was perceptible. Two hundred cubic centimetres more and he opened his eyes. When he had received 800 cubic centimetres he seemed to awake suddenly and askd what all the fuss was about? The transfusion was stopped when he had received 1200 cubic centimetres and was breathing normally.

lie had no realization of howclose to the- brink he had been. Dr. Linde-man said: "I have never seen it before or since, and I never expect to see it again, namely, in the presence of very evidence of death from hemorrhage, revival was yet possible by blood transfusion." This man had two other severe hemorrhages six days later and blood was again transfused on each occasion, af ter Wnicn anoiner operauon was formed, and lis, too. was followed by blood transfusion. The patient made an uneventful recovery, and today is perfectly well and strong.

By staggering the lenses more exposures can be obtained on the same plate and a greater number of exposures per second can be obtained with the same shutter speed. A slot further from the centre of the shutter, and diametrically opposite the main slot, uncovers lenses arranged in an outer circle so as to give simultaneous exposures for stereoscopic views.

The stereoscopic lenses ar.e spaced much further apart than the human eyes, so when the pictures are properly reversed and mounted in a stereoscope the object photographed appears nearer to the observer than it actually was from the camera. There are twenty-two different lenses in the high-sped camera, giving sixteen successive exposures, on one 8 by 10-inch plate; six of the exposures have sterescopic mates. This camera has been used to take pictures of arc phenomena at more than one hundred times the rate normally used in motion picture work. At a shutter speed of ten thousand revolutions per minute this camera will take sixteen successive exposures (six of which have sterescopic mates) in six thousandths of a second (0.006 sec). This is at the rate of over 26,000 exposures per second.

The rate at which any set of pictures is made can be very accurately obtained by multiplying the number of revolutions per second, of the high speed polar shutter, by the number of successive lenses. With this camera a calibrated tachometer is used which indicates the revolutions per minute of the shutter. Thus at 7 500 r.p.m. of the shutter, the rate of exposure (750060) 162 000 exposures per second. AIRPLANE WITHOUT A TAIL A tailless airplane has been designed by J.

A. Corry, of Burley, Yorkshire. England, who intends to enter it in the recently announced government competition for safety and reliability. In a statement to the London Dailv News, Mr. Corry claims for his.

machine that it is the safest and most flexible ever built, and can be run at speeds varying 'from ten to 200 miles an hour. According to Mr. Corry. in the present-day5 machines the flexibility of the engine is mostly used to secure variations of speed, but in bis machine no additional and violent structural stresses can take place even in the case of flattening out after a volplane; and as the machine has no tail, this could not be broken in climbing. He states that it would be absolutely impossible for his machine to corkscrew, overturn, or loop the loop.

His design is 'said to involve a radical change in all known types of construction, but it still remains a true airplane, with planes of the kind now in use, and any of the aero engines or propellers already adopted. 25 TRANSPORTED OVER MOUNTAIN ROADS BY MOTOR TRUCK Transportation of a large logging locomotive, as Bhown in the accompanying illustration, was accomplished in the timber lands of the Northwest by a ten-ton tractor and semi-trailer. The locomotive is the property of a shingle company at Bellingbam, and was moved by truck when it became necessary to transport it by high THE RECEIVING AND SENDING END OF PROFESSOR RANKINE'S APPARATUS of Light The faculty of a ray of light for conveying sound cannot be claimed as a new, invention for it has been known for a great many years. Some time ago Alexander Graham Bell undertook some experiments wth a view of making practical use of this He suc-eeded in sending messages, very satisfactorily but only for a short distance. It seemed to the distinguished inventor that two hundred yards was the limit of the possibilities but more recently the work was taken up by Professor A.

O. Rankine, of the Imperial College of Sciences at'London and he has devised mechanism that will carry great distances. The distance is limited ODly by the curvature of the earth, for a ray of lights travels in a straight line, and consequently is useless at a distance of more then about 'fifty miles, except cf course, between the great elevations. The great advantage of this- system over the ordinary wireless telegraphy is that only the persons at the listening point can catch the message, while anybody anywhere with a receiving set can catch the radio message. For the ray of light is directed at the point desired, and the sound message travels only along it.

Thus two ships in a fleet can talk to each other without ifny of the other vessels hearing a word. "All of this is made possible by the strange properties of the element called selenium. This substance is a sensitive conductor of electricity, and its conductivity increases and diminishes with the inensitv of the light that upon it. When a current of electricity Sows through a selenium cell and the intensity of the light fluctuates, the electric current follows every slightest charnge of light. Professor Rankine, after many experiments, constructed apparatus for making the waves of sound produced by the human voice regulate the in-ensity of a ray of light.

Speaking nto the horn of a phonograph, the sound box transmits the vibrations to he needle that cuts them on the disc. Rankine substitutes a tiny mirror for the needle, and by means of a lens concentrates a ray of light upon the mirror. It is evident that the reflected ray will vibrate in unison with the sounds that vibrate the mirror. By means of a second lens the reflected rays are made parallel. Before striking the mirror the rays pass through a grill with equal intervals, alternately opaque and transparent, thus dividing the ray.

vThe reflected rays fall now upon a second grill precisely similar to the first. It is evident that the movements of the mirror will change the angle at which the rays strike the second grill. When they are direct, all the light passes through the transparent spaces; with every change of angle the quantity of light passing through will vary. Now the changes of angle are controlled by the voice spoken into the phono- SOME marvelously high-speed photographic exposures have been recently made with a camera especially designed for the detailed study of electric arc phenomena and similar subjects. The instrument and results are described in the Electric Journal by J.

W. Legg, of the Research Engineering Department of the Westinghouse Company. The most common form of motion picture camera takes pictures at the rate of about sixteen per second. Special cameras have been in use which take pictures of moving objects at several times this rate. However, to make a detailed study of electric arc phenomena, this rate of exposure must be increased not merely five times, nor thirty times, but one or two hundred times.

This is especially necessary to obtain valuable data on the phenomena encountered in circuit breaker arcs and in commutator flashes. As is well known the -cumbersome, slow speed, reciprocating engines used to drive generators have been largely replaced by. steam or water turbines. In the same way, a high-speed, multi-exposure camera has been developed with the intermittent shutter movement of other 'cameras replaced by simple rotary motion. All parts of the camera remain stationary except the very light aluminum disc shutter.

The lenses are quite inexpensive and are arranged staggered, in circles, with the shutter shaft as a centre. The shutter consists of a thin aluminum disc, with a radial slot which exposes the Irnses in sequence. The sides of the slot are cut along radii of the disc so as to give equal exposures to the lenses near CHINA YEARNS FOR RUBBER FACTORIES China now being more or less in the limelight its possibilities as a field for rubber manufacture are not being overlooked. British and American tire manufacturers already maintain small vulcanizing plants there where the repairing or motor car tires is done efficiently. However, until Chinese roads are put into better shape there seems to be no reason to expect a great ex-pans'on in the automobile market outside the principal cities.

The jinrikis-has (the popular vehicle for the local transportation of passengers) are practically all equipped with pneumatic tires, Pekiit alone having 15,000 in service. But the outlook for rubber footwear manufacture is large, if some enterprising firm supplies the right kind of shoes. The Chinese shoes are made of cloth, good enough for dry weather, but very uncomfortable in the rainy Reason. About $500,000 worth of rubber gods are imported into Chin annually. With plenty of cheap labor and a vast crude rubber supply near at hand, rubber factories bound to come in tima.

Life Restored After Symptoms of Death Were Manifest graph horn, so the rays of light after passing through the second grill are vibrating in intensity according to the words spoken. At the receiving station these vn orating rays are concentrated oy a third lens and made to fall upon a selentum cell in a circuit between an electric battery and a telephonic receiver. The current of electricity is varied in intensity by the selenium cell in precise accord with the variations of the rays of light. And the telephonic receiver reproduces the voice, PINK CHEEKS FOR PALE PEOPLE The girl who is deficient in the matter of complexion can be given a permanent blush by resorting to the use of a vry old process which has been recently revived with some modern modifications. The process is nothing less than tattooing, which ia accomplished bv the use of electricity.

By the use of the electricity pale cheeks can be given a permanent dash of color and by the use of other colors, blemishes can be hidden. The necessary outfit comprises an electric tattooing needle operated from a battery and supplied with current through a flexible wire, while a small rubber tube leads through the needle proper to whichever complexion is selected by the patron. In some of these tattoing needles the coloring pigment is contained in a small hollow chamber on the base of the needle itself. TFIE statement has been made without qualification by a New York doctor who is regarded as an authority, Dr. Edward E.

Linderman, that there is no condition so grave from hemorrhage alone that cannot be revived by means of blood transfusion and in a recent paper be. describes an instance where a man was literally pnatched from death by this means. The patient had been operated upon for gastric ulcer, but after a few days be began to have hemorrhages of the stomach, which were so violent that the patient seemed to be on the verge a collapse. The doctor decided to eupply some of the missing blood by transfusion and engaged a suitable donor of the blood. Upon his arrival the bedside he found the man un- -nscious: his respirations eeased.

no Kjlse could be felt, nor could the heart i heard to beat even through the jitethoscope, and an incision into a vein ivied to reveal any ujoou. There was no time then for blood transfusion, so Dr. Liademan pumped jold salt solution into his veins until.
