Patrol chess problems 2

There are a few Patrol chess problems on this page that came onto my eyes in last days. First was kindly sent in by Theodor Tauber, other I digged in my files. I am considering an idea about running thematical tourney from my page that would be dedicated to Patrol chess. Are there any people interested in it? Mail me your opinion about it - if enough people would be attracted, I'll arrange it soon.
