Problem Solving Contest

At today's Groundhog's Shadow youth chess tournament, participants may attempt to win a chess book. One entry will be drawn from all those that submit answer sheets with all the answers correct.

Begin with the endgame if you want to become a strong chess player. Assess each of the following diagrams as two positions: a) White to move, and b) Black to move. Indicate on your answer sheet whether the side to move should win (W), draw (D), or lose (L) with best play by both sides. Give the best move for each position.
