Leokum Did you ever hear of Archimedes' Principle? It is the law of specific gravity, and it was discovered in an unusual way by an unusual man. Archimedes, who lived about 287 to 212 B.C., was a citizen of the Greek colony at Syracuse, Sicily. He was a mathematician and inventor. Nine of Archimedes' books on geometry and physics have been preserved.

They show that he knew much about levers, and blocks and tackles. Hiero, the king of Syracuse, came to Archimedes with a great puzzle: Could he find out whether Hiero's golden crown contained any silver, or was it pure gold? One day, as Archimedes stepped into his bath, he noticed the rise of the water. He knew now how to solve Hiero's problem. He weighed the crown. Then he took a lump of gold that had equal weight.

Next he dropped the crown into a vessel of water and measured the rise of liquid. Then he did the same with the lump of gold. If the crown had been of pure gold, the rise would have been the same. But the pure gold had a smaller volume and displaced less water than the crown. Therefore, he knew that the crown had some lighter metal in it.

Archimedes thus discovered what is known as Archimedes' Principle, or the law of specific gravity. This law states that any object placed in a liquid is buoyed up or held up ARCHIE THESE Digital CALCULATORS ARE LSi. A Leave Dear Ann: We are a childless couple (by choice), and our home is nut child-oriented. Two couples have ruined recent visits for us by including toddlers and preschoolers in late dinner invitations, when they knew that we are not set up for entertaining young children. When they go out to a restaurant they get a ba- bysitter, but when it's just to someone's house, they don't bother.

The visits were totally child-domi- nated and adult conversation 'was impossible. I've always heard that a good social rule is to assume" children are NOT invited unless they are specifically included. Please comment. Sign me Not Running A Day Care Centre Dear Not Running: I agree with you. By now, you know who the offenders are.

If you invite them again, tell them it's an adults-only evening and to please make arrangements to leave the children at home. Dear Ann Landers: I am one of the many hotel telephone operators who work at a big metropolitan hotel, and our switchboards are always very busy. During certain periods of the day we are run crazy with, all the lines going at once. It's impos-ible to take long messages. Yet some people think we are social secretaries.

They give us "messages" as long as letters. Why don't they realize there are other callers besides themselves? It is impossible to give good service if 10 calls are waiting and one person takes too long. CHESS SCENE by Jonathan Berry 47.Rg3 I had overlooked this move.

Then 58.a6 e3 59.a7 e2 Author For the second year in a row, the Ottawa Closed Chess Championship was won by me. Fan mail may be directed to For a long time it seemed that I would just run away with the tournament.

I won 6 points in my first seven games a full point and a half ahead of the nearest competitor. I then adjourned my eighth game in a winning position and obtained a winning game also in my ninth. At one point I was a whole rook ahead, but after a hectic time scramble I was two pawns behind. Then the game was adjourned. I achieved another winning position in my 10th game, but made a horrible blunder and lost.

I later won the adjournment of the eighthgame. Now the outcome of the tournament hung on two games. The main one was my adjournment from round nine against Jan Green-Krotki. If he won that game and managed to draw a difficult position against Bill Doubleday, he would tie for first place and we would have to play a match for the title of Ottawa Champion. But it was not to be.

After playing the first part of the adjournment admirably, Jan overlooked a simple winning manoeuvre and allowed me to draw by one tempo. Here is the crosst-able: Player 1 2 3 4 5 6 1. J. Berry 1' 222 8 2. J.

In Old English this became pylu and from that we got our pillow. Answer to yesterday's Puzzle Box: Rebut, tuber.

Some people are impatient, demanding and sarcastic and they take out their frustrations on (be first person they talk to which in many instances is you. Dear Ann Landers: I realize you have problems greater than this one, but I've been bugged by something for a.

long time and would appreciate an answer. What is the proper social procedure for entering a revolving door when a man and a woman are together? Should the man allow the woman to enter first and then push from the rear or should he enter first and make the pushing easier for her? Please help me. Every time I see a revolving door, I run the other way. Mr. from New York Dear New York: The man goes first.

He should, however, say something such as, "Pardon me for going ahead but I'll do the pushing."

Dr. Winterton, winner of last year's Challengers' Tournament, put up a good fight in his games until he achieved a winning position against Fred South in the first half. He later drew the game and never regained his composure.

In my game against Green-Krotki, he forced the win of a f5awn In the opening, for which I felt I 'had enough compensation. I build up a promising position, but allowed Jan to sacrifice back the Exchange for a pawn. At that point he probably held a slight advantage. But very soon thereafter he overlooked a threat and lost a piece, which left him a rook down for two pawns. As described earlier, a long series of mis-cues on my part led to the position in the Diagram with White to move.

In this position, the game was adjourned. White (Green-Krotki) is two pawns ahead. In fact, there are probably a number of winning moves. 44.C4 Rxa2 45.Ra4 Rb2 46.b4 looks pretty good, for one. Also 44.Rg4 and 44.a4 have something to be said for them.

But in all the above lines, as well as the one in the game, the win is not easy. White must be careful to always make the best move. Here is how the game went: 44.a3 Kf5 45.R3 Rc2. Black must not allow Rc3 followed by the advance of the c-pawn. Otherwise 45 e4 would probably draw.

White probably sealed 61. a5, after which black can draw two ways: the harder is 61 C3 62.Rxe3 Rxa5 63.Rc8 Re5! escorting the king back to block the pawn; the easier draw is 61 Rh2 62.Kel e3 63.a6 Rhl 64.Ke2 Rh2 65.Kfl Rh) and if 66.Kg2 black wins with 66. c2. So the game was agreed drawn without further play. Note that if white had an extra move (if it were his move after 61.

a5) he would win easily with 62 Ral Ke5 63.a6 Rh2 64 Kc3.
