Three new stamps in the "Liechtenstein Legends" series will also be issued of 30,50 and 80 r. denominations, depicting the Treasure of St. Mamerten, the Hobgoblin in the Bergerwald and the Three Sisters. These will all be printed by Courvoisier by photogravure.

A new series of ten service stamps will also be issued with values from 5 r. to 1.20 HAPPENINGS AT THE PEN: The New Penelope has taken up the cause of Montreal's embattled underground newspaper, Logos, and has arranged a benefit program for tomorrow. The money will go toward paying legal fees and publication of the next issue. And the show promises to be excellent. Penny Lang, one of the most popular folk singers in Montreal, heads the bill and is ably backed up by The Albert Failey Blues Band, The Cannabalie and the Valhala Pharmacy Light Company.

There are three shows at 3.30, 8 and 10.30. And a lineup of talent like that is worth the trip down to the Pen, at 378 Sherbrooke. And on Monday the group many consider the best in the city takes over. The Young Ones, six experienced and extremely talented gentlemen, who between them play a total of 52 instruments. Led by Duke Edwards, a graduate of the Berklee School of Music in Boston, the group stole the show when they appeared with, the Cream and recently took Toronto by storm.

And it's not easy to make any kind of impression in talent-rich T.O. The exponents of "the revival of thinking man's music" line up like this: Wayne Prue, lead guitar; Jeff Brown, organ; Clayton Johnston, drums; Dickie McGee, trombone; Bernard Moore, tenor sax and flute; and Duke, lead narrator and singer. The word narrator may seem a little strange, but when the Young ones start to weave their hypnotic sounds singing just doesn't seem to be enough. Their style is all new. They don't play sets, they play "cycles" and each note is carefully chosen to add to the overall effect.

This is a group not to miss. They're at the Pen Monday to Saturday. Shows are at 9.30 to 1 a.m. weekdays and 9.30 to 2. Friday and Saturday.

Make one. You'll probably make another. 9 A series of five stamps will be issued toward the end of October depicting baroque frescoes having a total face value of 12.S.; on Nov. 5 there will be a set of three special stamps (face value 6 to mark the 50 years of the Austrian Republic; and early next year a set of five stamps (face value 12 to mark the 500 years of the Wien Diocese. The Royal Trust Company has on exhibition in C.I.L.

House, 630 Dorchester Blvd. west, a most interesting display of early Canadian air mail covers in honor of the 50th anniversary of the first air mail flight in Canada from Montreal to Toronto June 24, 1918. Included is a flown cover carried on the pioneer flight by the late Capt. Brian A. Peck, R.F.C.

of Montreal, the pilot of the Curtiss "Jenny" plane. The exhibition was assembled by Maj. R. K. Malott of Ottawa.

Those interested in this interesting branch of philately should make a point of viewing this exhibition. A number of new stamps will be issued by Liechtenstein Aug. 29.

The highly touted United States team received quite a scare in the early part of their semi-final against the Nether The Gameilof Kings Tournaments rough The design of one of the six stamps depicting the floral emblems of the states which will be issued by Australia on July 10 was recorded in this column May 25. The 25c. value shows the Cooktown Orchid, the floral emblem of Queensland. The New Zealand Health Stamps for 1968 will depict sports in honor of the Olympic Games being held this year.

But when you hit the big time circuits of international bridge, it assumes, the nerve wracking atmosphere that matches other sports. While we think of bridge as mainly a game of the mind, the physical punishment take its toll, as witnessed during the 1968 World Bridge Olympiad held in France last week. Playing in every game, with little rest, Sammy Kehela and Eric Murray kept the Canadian team in the thick of battle all the way into the semi-finals, only to be beaten by the strong Italian team. Late in the qualifying round, Kehela, a young man in his early 30s, was completely exhausted and had to receive medical treatment.

But he was right back in action when the next round was called. Playing bridge every afternoon and evening for three weeks, with every deal chal 5 THE SCENE: The Rabble's album has been released in the U.S. and rated a picture in Record World magazine.

First is the well-known award-winning "Nobody Waved the story of teenage conflict and rebellion The NFB flick was filmed in Toronto. Backing it up is a study of Montreal poet Leonard Cohen, who is known all over the continent and recently released a record. The gallery is at 2008 Mackay St. and an informal discussion period will follow the showings Another local boy making good is Andy Kim, who recently clicked large with "How'd We Ever Get This Way." The first album is due for real release any day now.

MUSICAL NOTES: A lot has happened to Manfred Mann, the group. They first hit the charts on the crest of the Beatles' wave and since then have managed to maintain an excellent reputation, despite a number of changes. The first big change was the loss of their lead singer, Paul Jones, who turned to solo and finally ended up a movie star (Privilege). Then they switched styles and turned from hard rock to what amounted to very nearly jazz. It was in this period that other personnel changes were made, they reinforced their talent base and established themselves as one of the most progressive and capable of the English groups.

Now they've come back to rock with their latest LP, named after their recent hit "The Mighty Quinn." The title song on the album, of course was written by Bob Dylan, but with the exception of two other cuts all were written by members of the group. And it's a good album. "Everyday Another Hair Turns for instance is one of those cuts that makes you wonder why it wasn't released as a single. It's about a woman growing old and done in the style of The Beatles and every bit as good as the Beatles could have done. In fact they do have a connection with the Liverpool millionaires.

Claus Voorman is an artist as well as a musician and designed the "Revolver" album cover. But you can't accuse them of copying anybody. While "Everyday" and "Semi-; Detached Suburban Mr. James" are Beatle-ish "Big a raving number, "Each and Every (The Mike Jones Group recorded that here a while back) and "The Mighty Quinn" bear the Mann-made stamp. And that's a stamp of quality.

Of course, Larsen has gained Impressive results in the last several months, but too great an importance should not be given to his victories.

The Havana, the Sousse Interzonal, and the Palma Majorca events are all tournaments of a 'mixed' type, in which, besides strong players, quite weak ones also played. As a rule, Larsen is successful in such events, for he is especially formidable against the weaker participants." To which it might be added, that being No. 2 he will try harder.

(See solution below) L. Engels vs Consultants (Brazil, 1949) B. Larsen's Heavy Task With the elimination of Samuel Resbevsky in the Challengers match tourney, and the cancellation of Bobby Fischer from the earlier Interzonal of the current world series, Bent Larsen, Denmark, remains the sole Western hope in the fight for the world championship title which the Russians have held for the last decades. Having eliminated L. Portisch, he w'll now meet Boris Spassky, USSR, the challenger in the previous series.

If he succeeds he will then have to contend with the winner of the Korchnoi-Tal match. The winner will then become the official challenger for a match with world champion, Tigran Pelrosian, U.SSR, in 1969. Former world champion, Mikhail Botvinnik, has given his assessment of Larsen's strengths and weaknesses in a recent interview in Russia, which the "British Chess Magazine" has reprinted. Vast Repertoire "It must be said, first of all, that Larsen knows a lot. His opening repertoire has great verity and he is at home in any variation.

Constantly modifying his opening systems, he makes it very difficult for his opponents to prepare for any encounter with him, particularly so for tournament games. However, in a match, a broad opening repertoire does not play such a big role; it is much more Important to have one which has been studied more seriously and deeply, even though It may be narrower. Larsen feels confident not only In the opening but also in the other stages of the game. He Is fast at making a decision and at calculating variations and makes few tactical slips. It Is also noteworthy that Larsen works a lot at chess.

Having decided, several years ago, to become a professional chess player, he gave up his college studies, and now has all the time to deal with chess, and chess alone. Confidenca Calor He has a lot of self-confidence and, like every player with an optimistic frame of mind, he assesses the position sometimes one-sidely. Although he senses quite well the fine points on his side of the board, he frequently misses the finesse of his opponent. Thus, for Instance, In his game against the Spanish master A. Medina, in the recent International at Palma de Mallorca, he missed a fine move and was mated in a position that he should really have won.

This underestimation of his opponent's threats Is, I would say, the first shortcoming in Larsen's play. The second on, as I see It, Is the lack of original strategic Ideas. I haven't noticed any especially rich fantasy In Larsen's games, that some have claimed. His play Is sufficiently rational. In striving to play systems which he knows well, the Danish grandmaster skillfully takes advantage of the tactical possibilities that arise.

In general, I would say that chess talent Is more of a tactical rather than strategical Character. Has he reached his apogee as chess-player? No; he can yo still further, He Is now only thirty-three and has at least five or tlx years mm SATURDAY'S CROSSWORD PUZZLE 1 12 13 4 lb Id I 13 19 10" IT" 13 14 if" 16 17 18 19 20 21 28 29 30" 31 32 33 34 35 7a 37 38" 39 41 42 "43 44 45 46 47 48 49 IbO 55 S6 i)3 b9 bO" 66 ST" 68 jq 7i 7T 78 79 180 181 82 83 85 a6 87 88 gg 5 94" 97 gjj- 55- ICO" 101 102 loT 104 Il05 By Hume 76 Magazine features. 78 Airplane antenna. shelters. 82 Glacial snows.
