Hi Alvin,
Try thinking outside the box. I do not have a free board to check right now,
but Hugh and I are almost done with a game and I will re-check soon to see if
there is some mistake.
Did anyone else find a reasonable answer? If so, do not reveal it just yet.

Richard,
The extra point makes this one impossible for me. I must ask: Is the layout
correct? The answer is surely hidden to me.

Good Morning Puzzlers,
This problem is from Larry Evans' book "Chess: Beginner to Expert" available
on tape from your NLS library. Note the book uses descriptive notation not
algebraic.
This is the first problem worth 3 points.
Since it is Friday, as usual this is the last problem for the week. I will
post my answers and some analysis on Monday for list discussion.
Problem 10:
6rk/
1bp2Q1p/
p2p4/
1p2p3/
5N1N/
1P1P3P/
1PP2p1K/
8
Points: 3
Black to mate in one.
