 The Fastest Defeat In Chess
-	The big name for us in the world of chess is Gibaud, a French chess
-master.
-	In Paris during 1924 he was beaten after only four moves by a
-Monsieur Lazard.  Happily for posterity, the moves are recorded and so
-chess enthusiasts may reconstruct this magnificent collapse in the comfort
-of their own homes.
-	Lazard was black and Gibaud white:
-	1: P-Q4, Kt-KB3
-	2: Kt-Q2, P-K4
-	3: PxP, Kt-Kt5
-	4: P-K6, Kt-K6/
-	White then resigns on realizing that a fifth move would involve
-either a Q-KR5 check or the loss of his queen.
