      The goal here is to find the move 1.Bb5!!,that leads to mate.
      a)1...axb5 2.Rxb8+ Rxb8 3.Rxd7+
      b)1...Bxb5 2.Rgxc7 Bc4+ 3.Rxc4 dxc4 4.Ka3
      c)1...Kc8 2.Bxd7+ Kxb7 3.Bc6+
      In the game White played 1.Ka3 and lost quickly.
      By the way, Washington de Oliveira(1916-1976)was a Brazilian
      national master,he helped organize the 1973 Petrópolis interzonal. JAFM
