It is usual to play D 12, followed by White E 14, Black D 15, White G 12. <B) I 11. I 12 would have been played here if it were not for the closed line H 14 to H 16. (c) Q 14. Now, White's I 12 is impossible— e.g., Black. White. I 12 H 13 X 12 F 14 G 14 G 13 (D) Q 5. Usually M 3,~ followed by Black's I> 6. (B) N4.

Then Black Q 2. White's L 3 is also good. (b) H 3. White cannot play L 3, as Black •would follow it with R 10. (c) R 12. If O 7 were not there Black would only go up to R 10. (d) S 11 prevents Black moving to Q 13, and is very elegant — e.g., White. Black. S 11 Q 13 Q 14 P 13 O 13 O 14 Q 12 R 13 R 11 «nd the four Black atones are killed. (c) X 12 is of a purely strategic nature. The important effect of this move can be well gauged after the fifty-3econd move. OPENING XXVIII. (Black receives two stones on D 4 ; Q 16.) TVhit*. Black.

White wishes to follow with R 8, which Black can prevent with Q 7, but this time it is effected in. a more advantageous manner. ' . . <b) S3. Whit* R 8 has r.ow lost its purpose. <c) N 3.

(p) D 3- White hereby more effectually avoids the struggle whicl- C 4 -would provoke. He also maintains the advantage.
