  Larsen,P 1932

  The name of the author sure gives associations... But it's a common name
  and the initial + year tells us that it couldn't be this Larsen nor that
  Larsen...;) This one carries an indian theme. White has a nice and sharp
  arrow, formed by the pawns c2,d3,e4,f5,h7. On the other hand he's facing
  defeat since the black f2 pawn is about to promote. Looks like there is
  no decent way to stop this runner. But the arrow carries some poison and
  with an intriguing manouvre white is aiming for peace. And succeeds...


  Test: White moves for the draw. Fire off your arrow and show us your
        peace evals! The smoke signals are further down. ;)
