Hmmm, back in 1942 I venture to suggest that the censor (picture him as a bowler-hat wearing Englishman) would have written "Why not 14.P-K5?".
Actually I'm surprised the Telegraph doesn't insist on descriptive to this day.
Hmmm: did the *Germans* use algebraic notation in 1942? Perhaps the censor was not a bowler-hat-wearing Englishman after all...
That is delightful. :-)
