Championship Chess Bjr BLAKE STEVENS Southwestern 'Open, Chess Champion In preceding columns over a period of several weeks we have been looking at games from the San Antonio-Dallas chess matcb.

This time around we offer what we consider the best game of the entire 12 played, contested on board No. 1 between Ken Smith of Dallas and J.B. Payne ot San Antonio. Black plays according to the MB-QI' N-Q book up to his 7fh turn when a -S'SSJf, 1 weak move condemns him to passivity. 'White then increases his pressure on the Queen side, sud- P-N5 I a denly switches to the K-side where an attack shapes up.

The black King becomes i up. Back to the Q-side, White concludes neatly. 31 Si B-R6! 34 BxR A Problem Wklte K. P-KN3 B-NJ KN-B3 5 IS N-NS 14 Q-B2 is K-Ki! N-Q7 KJSi B-1S 21 r-iu r4ca r-Bs Bl.tk J. B.

KXS P-Q4 ir- NiN N-N1 B-X3 Q-R1 R3 P-XR3 While Play and Draw Winnin Contract By HOWARD SCHENKEN UN! KKHARD L. FKEY accurately is impossible, and partnership morale is wrecked, if a player allows the opponents' possession of a part score to panic him into making an unwarranted bid. When partner has opened and an opponent's Ij enough for tame, it is worse than useless to intervene this point with a weak hand. If partner cannot take further action on his own--and he will certainly strive to do to in view of the score--you cannot hope to outbid the opponents except at too great a cpst. Virtue is not often rewarded as well in today's deal-but it triumphed here with the aid of excellent diagnosis by South.

Declarer could return to his hand wilh a trump, third round of trumps i and discard two of dummy's clubs on the good spades. Then a i a lead toward dummy would let declarer make five odd. But if the spade queen, failed to drop, the contract would not make. South could get back to his hand by playing another trump and ruff a fourth spade in my. But he couldn't' return to his hand without losing the lead ex- cepl by playing another heart and that exhaust trumps, leaving declarer unable to avoid his three club losers.

South had the fall ot Kast's nine of spades on the second spade load. iic also gave consideration to West's lead-- an extremely doubtful choice unless West had a trick or two in declarer's first bid suit. So South elected to play West for four spades.Including the queen. His lead to UK fourth trick was the jack of spades. West refused to cover, but South held to his convictions and discarded another club.

Another spade play let North trump the queen and declarer made five odd when a third club was discarded en his fifth spade. wouldn't have helped West a bit if he had covered the jack of spades. The fall of East's ten would establish two good spad9M for South. But ft would have helped the defenders enormously if North had ridden to the rescue by pulling in a free bid of two hearts over two diamonds. With North as declarer, East would open a diamond.

West would win with the ace and have no choice but to lead nee and-are- other club. The defenders would cash three club tricks in a hurry and banish all hopes of North's making game.
