Expert In the Wolfe-Johnson game presented Dec. 27, the analysis of Black's 23rd move and its consequences was deliberately not complete. Obviously, space would not permit a really thorough analysis, but I had another reason: I wanted you to do some of your own analysis in addition. One difference between the expert and the non-expert is that the expert sees and finds answers to more questions and hence makes better moves. The expert questions most things, the master questions everything.

To gain proficiency you've got to ask questions. Those of you questioned my analysis without question are placing too much faith in others and not enough in your- ielf. Let's take another look at the position. Eight Fillmore district patrolmen get commendations for "alert and aggressive patrol, exemplary action and aggressive, diligent police From left, John B. Ascher, deputy chief 4th area, presenting: awards; Thomas McNulty, Fill- After 23 Q-Q6, I gave nly variation stemming rom 24.

Q-N2: 24 B-N8; 5. QxQB, QxBch; 26. K-R1, Q-B7. Some of you must have wondered about this. Why 24 B-N8? Or, why not 25.

Qx- For example, 25. QxR, QxQ. 16. RxB, Q-Q6; 27. RxB, QxBch White has Rook and two minor pieces for the Queen, lardly satisfactory for Black.

But Black doesn't play 25 QxQ. Instead he plays 25 QxBch! 26. K-R1, QxR and ow if 27. Q-K8ch? B-B1; 28. '-Q6 (so as to play 29.

B-Q5) after which White must 'lay 29. P-KR3. Then follows 9 QxNch; 30. K-R2, PxP; 1. B-Q5, B-N3 and Black is a iece and three pawns to the ood.

Those who felt that 24 B-Q8 was better can make a ood case, but what happens ter 25. QxR, BxQ, when White gain has Rook and two minor )ieces against the Queen? Or 25. QxR, QxBch; 26. Q-K3, QxR; 27. Q-K8ch, B-B1; 28.

Q-K1! pinning Black's QB with material about even? True, Black can escape the pin by 28 Q-Q5ch; 29. Q-K3, QxQch; 0. NxQ, when Black has the dvantage of one pawn, but tie ending would be anything ut easy. The position and the analysis till leave numerous questions, hope you find them and an- wer them for your own bene- it as a chess player. And I'd ike to have your comments questions.

Maurice Beacham and William Johnson for exemplary action in the prompt arrest Dec. 1 of a man attacking a girl. The officers responded to an assignment at 14th and Kolin Dec. 1 and after getting a description of the assailant they found him a block away menacing another girl with a knife in a basement doorway.

The man was identified as Paul Littleton and he admitted to a record of sexual assaults and a term in the penitentiary. Nathaniel Crossley, William James and Andrew Craig for "praiseworthy police work" in the arrest of three men for a robbery and the clearing of 49 robbery cases. The three officers, after long investigation, learned that three men for dozens of robberies could be located at 3647 Roosevelt in an apartment reportedly used for sale of narcotics.

Officer Heslin fired a shot at the fleeing man, wounding him fatally. The man, Charles Williams, was later identified by two other robbery victims.

Clarence BRISSETTE, O.S.M. Pastor, Our Lady of Sorrows Basilica BASILICA BEAM What's Happening At PTAs LAST WEEK'S column tried to portray the work of the Christian Brothers and their Founder. So much was left unsaid. Hard for us to understand the social evolution of the world from the time of Christ absolute slavery of more than half the world while Rome ruled, the gradual transition to serfdom in medieval ages then the peasant class followed by better living conditions which for many blossomed into the high living status of the "middle class" of today. Well to note in non-Christian lands! the poor people are still practically living on I the level of slaves.

Seventeenth century France goes down in history as the "Golden Age of France," but conditions among the poorf did not warrant the title of "golden." Hard for us to understand there were only two classes of people, "the nobility and the poor." By accident of birth the no- Rev. Brissette bility lived to preen themselves, be admired, respected and amused. The poor lived to slave, be taxed, kow-tow to the higher-ups. Between the two an infinite distance finally bridged by heroic souls such as Saints like St. Vincent de Paul and St.

John de La Salle. The only thing the nobles and the poor of France had In common was the Catholic religion. The only place where both rubbed shoulders was in chapel, church or cathedral. Noblemen, like Vincent and de La Salle renounced their own class and riches to work among the poor, to draw the opposing classes closer together start a work which perseveres to this day. The nobles and poor of France were fairly good Catholics attending weekday and Sunday masses, but the uneducated poor received the sacraments and performed religious duties not out of conviction! They could not understand the why or wherefore of religion.

THIS St. de La Salle sought to remedy! Most of the public teachers were disreputable and, of course, poorly paid. Education with the poor was a private affair take it or leave it. Those who did go to school had to study Latin and learned little of practical value. De La Salle changed all that and insisted the language used be in the vernacular French in France, English in England, Italian in Italy, etc.

Seems strange to us, but he had to overcome prejudices and the obstacles of time- honored customs. He set about training competent teachers establishing the first normal schools. Eventually leading to the founding of the Congregation of Christian Brothers. He started Sunday schools with an idea of not only teaching daily workers the truths of religion but how to read and write. Part time trade schools were inaugurated with the intention of helping men earn a skilled living.

The Guilds opposed this just as present-day unions limit apprentices to keep work more plentiful for their own. In his schools for boys his primary objective was to teach what would be of practical value to them in later life. His genius figured out the most efficient way of teaching boys preserved intact among the Christian Brothers today. What I liked most about St. de La Salle intelligent concentration on his work his humanism in settling problems and naturally he had all the gentle qualities that transform an ordinary man into the giant proportions of a saint.
