Larsen on Canadian Juniors The Danish grandmaster, Bent Larsen, winner of the 1968 and 1970 Canadian Open championships, has made the following observations for "Chess-Canada" of young Canadians he has met during these events. "I was surprised by the tough resistance offered by Jon Berry in the first round of this year's Open at St. John's. A couple of rounds later a player with a rating in the 1900's (Langen) came very close to beating grandmaster Walter Browne with the black pieces In an Alekhine Defence. It is not always the strongest players who are the most dangerous for the favorites, as it is very easy to under-estlmate an A or player.

And the Master or Expert often tries so hard to do his very best aqainst the grandmaster that he gets nervous and uses too much time. Also, some players reach the Expert or Master categories thanks to their excellent tactics, although their positional play is nothing special. Thev beat the weaker players with combinations and sacrifices, but against strong masters their shortcomings in strategy and technique make them rather -easy victims. Of the many young talents I saw in this Canadian Open, I think Coudari and Ganong belong in this category. Among Internationally-known masters, the Finn Westerinen comes to mind as a good comparison, he has been a 'talented' and 'promising' international master for quite a few years but will he ever become a Grandmaster? Players like Piasetski and Wright seemed to me to have a better understanding of strategy.

Amos, of course, is already quite strong, as his result at Reykjavik showed. But he needs more experience against grandmasters. Both against Browne and myself he lost positions he should not have done, perhaps because he did not try to win them!"

Piasetski Vins Canadian Junior Leon Piasetski, McGill student, won the First Canadian Junior Championship held at Hart House, University of Toronto, scoring 8-1 pts. in a picked field of ten from across Canada. He won seven games and drew with J. MacPhail, Ottawa, and C. Rosner, Winnipeg.

MacPhail scored 7-2, with draws also against Rosner, M. Ra-jagopal, Toronto, and B. Harper, Vancouver. Piasetski will be the official representative for Canada in the World Junior at Havana this summer. Final Standing: Piasetski, L.

2 -7 Berry, MacPhail, Harper and Jackson are all young enough to be eligible for another try in 1972. Finding a Canadian junior champion started back in 1950, when the Ch. Fed. of Canada decided to send a representative to the first world junior championship to be organized at Birmingham in 1951. A match was arranged between two juniors, Lionel Joyner of Montreal, and Ross Siemms, of Toronto, both of whom had made their mark in senior competition.

The match was played in Montreal and won by Joyner, who subsequently competed at Birmingham. With the organization of the first Canadian Open at Montreal in 1956, and those which followed, it became the custom to recopize the top junior as the national champion. A not too convincing arrangement in a Swiss system tourney, especially when it was used to establish representation in the world junior. So the present development is an important improvement. Incidentally Piasetski is the first Montreal player to win the title since Joyner.

Here is one of his games from the tourney. White: Black: J. Berry L.

SMALL COST The investment in publish-irfg such a book in French will bring a big return by doubling the membership in Quebec, Eastern Ontario and the Mari-times within a year or so.

It's all spelled out very simply; The Montreal Bridge League, one of the largest units of the A.C.B.L., has shown time and time again the importance of a French "Guide." Other clubs in the district backed this and the Canadian Bridge Federation highly recommended such printing. What more proof of interest is needed? The cost of such publication would be about $2,500. A small investment for a million-dollar concern. PAID UP PLAY This is the month of special master point pick-ups.

16 or f. 22 will be about right. For closer pictures of darker subjects, I will have to open up two f. stops from my basic daytime exposure of 250th of a second and f. 11.

To be on the safe side, I usually bracket my pictures half a stop either way. It's a waste of film, but the exposure is bound to be fairly accurate in one of the three pictures taken in rapid sequence. By basing my exposure on ones that I know have been accurate in similar light conditions, I can start shooting the instant I have the camera out from underneath my parka. Thirty-below and wind is no time to fumble for a meter, and take elaborate readings. For cold-weather shooting, I have worked out for myself a very simple, memorized exposure guide for each type of film I use.

If you do a lot of winter shooting, you may find a similar approach useful. EVERYTHING for stamp collectors ALBUMS CATALOGUES STOCK BOOKS Nice selection of mint ond used Canadian stamps.

But they took a general reatjing, giving them a very high light value because of al lthe surrounding snow, while I was taking a specific reading of-the nearly-black seals. Or rather, since the hooded seal is large and quite aggressive, I took readings off my equally dark camera bag in the snow, and used the indicated exposure for the seal pictures, WINTER TACTIC It is very important to keep this idea of slelective exposure in mind during winter shooting sessions.

In the Arctic, where it is often so cold that by the time you have taken a meter reading, your hands are no longer capable of taking pictures, and where every second counts once you have taken your mittens off, I have developed a simplified ex- n0Sure guide for myself. It usually works.

With an ASA 64 film, I get a reading of f. 8 at a 250th of a second off the blue sky. I close down one more stop, to f. 11, underexposing the sky, intensifying the blue. If it's exceptionally brilliant, I close down to f.

But the game is a partnership effort.

You need full co-operation from your partner, or you'll never reach that slam. This parallels the situation and partnership of the Canadian members of the American Contract Bridge League and the directors of the latter organization. This mainly applies to our French-speaking population. The big hand is in the popular demand and need for a French version of the "Easy Guide to Duplicate Bridge." The lack of partnership co-operation comes from the reluctant approach toward this important matter by the A.C.B.L. After years of campaigning by the Montreal Bridge League to have the higher body consider such an undertaking, the matter was brought up at a directors' meeting and for just a short while it looked like some action was to be taken.

Last year's A.C.B.L. president, William Baldwin, told this writer that he sees no reason why such a publication shouldn't be sponsored by the organization. He promised to discuss this matter with Parent, our district representative. But at the last meeting of the board, the matter was shuffled to management. This writer had an opportunity to discuss the matter with management in the persons of Caslcy Blackwood and Richard Goldberg, top brass, and Steve Becker, who is in BY CHARLES H.
