    The author uses two combinatorial problems: packing diamonds into a Chinese checkerboard nd Deza's proof of a conjecture of Erdős and Lovàsz [\textit{M. Deza}, J. Comb. Theory, Ser. B, 16, 166-167 (1974; Zbl 0263.05007)] to illustrate how Gomory's cutting plane method for solving integer linear programming problems can be used to solve combinatorial problems and suggest combinatorial proofs.
