I.OS ANCitl.LS TIMES OC SUNDAY, JULY 29. 1990 B15 FEEL LIKE CINDERELLA! By JACK PETERS INTERNATIONAL MASTER CHESS Last week I received a $750.00 check from a benevolent car dealer. Printed on the face of the check were the words "NON NEGOTIABLE." With it came a letter explaining how this "Non Negotiable" check is going to work magical wonders (or me. Because I had this "Non Negotiable" check 1 was to be at a certain designated spot at the stroke or midnight, when this wonderful witch from i the north would swoop down on her broomstick bringing me special i factory incentives and rebates that would put me in a brand new car. A wonderful witch did that for Cinderella once-when she turned a pump-i kin Into a horse-drawn carriage, that drove her off to the ball.

And 6 m)S everybody knows that was a lairy tale. fR auMplR stKm SM) lM AL GREENWOOD, THE BEDSPREAD KING (213) 498-9277 ,2750 E.

White will miss his KB, a good defender of the light squares around his King gxh5 16 Qe1 White stakes his defense on the chance for 12-14 Instead. 16 Rcl Be5 17 g3 Qh3 leaves him vulnerable to Bf5-g4-f3.
