Remodels Design
By BILL BEST
United Press Correspondent
Hollywood Iff) If prize
winning sculptor Peter Ganine
has his way, the days of the "old
fashioned" chess sets are num
bered. The "old fashioned" set was
designed in 1849 by Howard
Staunton, an Englishman, once
continental chess champion.
But Ganine, a White Russian
who fled Tiflis and the Commu
nist revolution for the Belgian
Congo in 1919, says "it's time for
a change."
Staunton's set, with its fami
liar lathe-turned and faceless
queens, kings and bishops and
its horse heads for knights, was
the first successful standardized
set designed for mass production.
It took 20 years to achieve popu
larity. It was an historic event
in the approximate 4,000-year
history of the game.
Now Ganine, 57, after a wait
of 22 years, believes the design
that he sculpted back in 1935 and
exhibited at the 1939 World's
Fair in San Francisco, is about to
become the second major design
upheaval in chess history.
"We finally standardized it and
have our molds and are in pro
duction," he said in his hillside
studio overlooking downtown
Hollywood.
"The demand is coming like
hot-cakes," he added in his still
broad Russian accent.
Mads Of Plastic
"See, everyteeng's got a face,"
said Ganine. "So impersonal was
Staunton's pieces. No features.
"One of fondementals of chass,
one. of its basic appeals is desire
of human being to play God, to
move people around like com
mander of armies. So you put
face on chass pieces and you
moving people around."
Even Ganine's castles have fac
es female and "enigmatic be
cause a castle is an enigma . . .
you never know when you ap
proach the castle whether draw
bridge weel be down or whether
crossbows weel shoot you from
the parapet."
Why female?
"The french word for castle is
'la tour' faminine gender."
Ganine's pawns look like a
horde of Viking foot soldiers,
strong impersonal visages that
appear resigned to their fates.
His knights, also strong-featur
ed, bear Trojan crests on their
helmets. And his king is elderly
stern-browed, beside a younger
and flirtatious queen.
"See," Ganine said, knocking
two of the pieces together sharp
ly, "plastic, solid plastic (mela
mine). They are heavy and have
authority, and luminosity, too.
