is officially endorsed the
algebraic' systen, and is en-
ina continuing pro-
gram to Beach the algebraic
system to its members
through a nufthly column in
its official publication, Chess

Looking at ' world scene,
we find the r ►, ' e sys-
tem used in English- and
Spanish-speaking countries.
Almaatall other countries use
algebraic.
Let's assume the change-
over is inevitable. How soon
w1l all English and Spanish
language publications'
be reporting games and con -
positions in algebraic?
We have some information
an English language publica-
t ms. AUSCJ began monitor -
u the changeover in 1973,
and reports an increase in
algebraic use in US, chess
publications. In 1973, 44 per
cent of the U.S. publications
were using algebraic totally
or for part of their reporting.
This year the number is 57
per cent
English language book
publishers are changing.

c notation
gains favor
Let'seea mi a some of the ar-
guments.
1. On the basis of notal m
alone, algebraic is a better
system. Each chess -board
siluarehasa unique identifier
in algebraic. In descriptive,
each square bas two
identi-
fiers.
In algebraic the vertical
files are leered a through h,
starting from the left. Hori-
zontal tal ranks are number 1
through 8, staffing from the
both. Thus, the upper lett-
band corner in algebraic is
ail. In descriptive, it's either
QM or QR1, depending on
whether you are white or
black..
2. Of the top 85 players in
the world, about 80 per cent
live in countries where the al-
getraic , j is predomi-
nant. A t prity of the
world's best games, there -
foie, are first published in al-
gebraic.
3. Why can't we go an living
with two languages? We can.
There are many languages
spoken.. Communication is
hampered, but some of us
have survived.
Music has one notation sys-
tem used worldwide. So does
science. Professionals in
these fields can together to
agree on a common language
for the sake of communica-
tion. The chess professionals
have done the same thing.
What does all this mean to
readers of this column? We
would like to present the
Game of the Week in alge-
braic. The timing for the
change we would like to leave
in your hands. If you\ have
strong feelings on this point,
drop us a note. We will abide
by your decision.
This week we will present a
game in descriptive notation.
Next week, we will present
the same game in algebraic
with a brief outline .of the al-
gebraic system.
Game of the Week
In the world's top 85 play-
ers are two young Hungarian
Grandmasters, Gyula Sax
and,Zoltan Ribli. They played

THENCE, and WHENCE, an in -
dude the idea of FROM, and it is
therefore incorrect to use the word,
"from," with any of them.
Do not say, "He alluded at
great length to his adventures?'
You cannot _,z ide "at great
length," since thed.._aieans to
refer casually. Say, "He SPOKE at
Seat huh-"
Do not say, "If anyone calls,

UTES...

WORD STUDY
"Use a word three times and
it • is yours." Let us increase our
vocabulary by mastering one word
each day. Words - for this lesson:
CIRCUMSPECT; watchful and
discreet; cautious; prudent. `Poli-
ticize must be quite circumspect
in their general behavior."
ENGENDER; to give rise to;
p oduce. "The irresponsible be -
of the captain engendered a
of insecurity in his men."
TENTATIVE; of the mature of`
an experiment; conditional. `While
we are waiting for a decision, we
must make some tentative arrange-
ment."
ENJOIN; to forbid or prohibit.
"The doctor enjoined his patient
to stop smoking inunediately."
PIRATE INNOVATOR
Onetime owner of the Pitts-
burgh Pirates, Barney Drey-
fuss, initiated a call on Aug.
22, 1903, for a World Series.
He wrote a letter to Henry
Killilea, president of the Bo&.
ton Red Sox suggesting they
organize the Series. And they
did.
A year's supply! Canadians eat an average of 10.7 pounds of ketchup a year. This custom-
er, with a dozen 15 -ounce bottles, checks out of the supermarket with the equivalent of the
annual per capita consumption.
What Canadians eat
The average Canadian eats a
lot of ketchup -almost 11 pounds
a year. .
He also eats about 12 pounds of
fresh tomatoes, 11 pounds of
canned tomatoes, _13 pounds of
tomato juice and 20 pounds of
tomato paste, for a grand total
` tomato consumption of 67 pounds
a year. .
These facts are recorded in
Agriculture Canada's Handbook
of Food Expenditures, Price and
Consumption, recently compiled
by the department's Economic
Branch.
The handbook also reveals that
the annual per capita consump-
tion of meat, fish and poultry in
1973 was 217 pounps. That figure
represents 92 pounds of beef, 58
pounds of pork, four pounds of
mutton and lamb, three pounds of
veal, 36 pounds of chicken, 10
pounds of turkey and 13 pounds of
fish.
Canadian meat consumption
has been steadily increasing over
the past 20 years. In the 1950s
Canadians ate y only about 70
pounds of beef, 50 pounds of pork
and 20 pounds of chicken a year.
In 1973, the average sugareijn-
swnptiorr was 105 pounds, but the
amount of sugar used by the
average Canadian has varied
over the years. In the late 1940s it
was more than 100 pounds. It
dipped as low as 92 pounds in 1957
and ' was under 100 pounds for
most of the years between 1951
and 1970.
One of the apsects of the Cana-
dian diet that has undergone the
most change is oils and fats. The
consumption of shortening, cook-
ing oils and salad oils has more
than doubled in the past 25 years:
In 1973, it was 24 pounds per
person, while in 1949 it was only
10 pounds. •
Canadians also eat about seven
pounds of lard a year, down from
more than nine pounds a quarter
century ago. In the same period,
margarine consumption has gone
from six pounds a year to 10
pounds.
Butter has gone the opposite
way. In 1973, the average use was
13.25 pounds per person. com-
pared with more than 20 pounds
in the 1940s.
Some other dairy products
--have also experienced a decline.
Whole milk consumption, for
example. has gone from 394
pounds per person in 1948, to 274
pounds per person in 1973. The
latter figure is about one quart
every three days.
Cheese consumption has about
doubled since 1949 and Canadians
are also buying more skim milk
powder and ice cream.
Fewer Canadians are starting
their day with a bowl of por-
ridge -or at least the oatmeal
figures would seem to suggest so.
In 1950, the average Canadian ate
more than six pounds and it, 1973
he was eating' less than three.
In general, breakfast cereal
consumption has not changed
much. In' 1948, it was six pounds
and in 1973 it was 6.1. It was a
little higher in the 1950s, hitting a
peak of 7.2 pounds in 1954 and
1960.
But Canadians may be cutting
down a little on some starchy
foods. Consumption of wheat
flour was 130 pounds per person
in ;1973, 20 pounds less than in the
early 1950s.
On the other hand, rice con-
sumption has doubled from three
pounds in 1948 to more than six
pounds in the 1970s. Potato con-
sumption is variable. It was 139
pounds in 1959, 178 pounds in 1966
and 157 pounds in 1973.
The amount of vegetables
being eaten has increased slight-
ly to 116 pounds per person. Fruit
consumption has gone from 177
pound.* in 1948 to 204 pounds in
1973. Canadians are using more
fresh and frozen fruit and more
fruit juices, but are eating less
dried fruits, jams and jellies.
The 1973 consumption figures
also show the average Canadian
eating up 29 pounds of
(about 20 dozen), four pounds of
mushrooms, 5.6 pounds of baked
beans, 2.5 pounds of tea (about
450 cups), nine pounds of coffee
(about 450 cups) and 3.5 pounds of
cocoa.

Dear Dorothy
I'm tired out all the time
these days. I just have no pep
at all. I have no interest in
things or people and have lost
my confidence. My doctor
says I'm in good health and
I'm only 30 years old. I'm just
tired, that's all! What's -my
big problem?
A. M.
Dear A.M.:
When your production line
of achievement wobbles
around in all directions, or
just plain stops, nothing can
make you so tired.
Your quick changing
moods, seen in the light pres-
sure of your writing, keep you
bouncing with your experi-
ences, and you really don't
take anything too seriously.
You lack confidence in your
abilities to accomplish. Fu-
ture planning scares you, and
®PPS, I DROPPED A SKI- erg Jcin does his famous entry into Don Dodds' training
pond, The mpg gave tum a standing ovation for his performance. He is one of Mr. Dodds'
sentimental favcrites, and each time out, Big John went like It was the first. What a dog!
your low t crossings keep tell-
ing you not -to take a chance.
You're sensing a pretty
good escape "in delayed ac-
tion. You keep putting today's
duties on tomorrows sched-
ule, seen in the, is crossed to
the left. Then,when things
sne .. up on you and dead-
nsume you, you think
you' ie down for awhile
our whole physical sys-
needs a good shaking out.
r mind is crying out for
exercise, for the active use of
your muscles and movement
of your body, seen' in large
loop in the P.
So, stop procrastinating.
How about joining a good
health club in your city? If
is not possible, just jog up
and down your block.
Then, don't forget to turn
around, occasionally, to see
how many are following you.
This'll build your confidence.
And there's nothing like the
jogger's parade to vibrate
you back into action.
