Does the paper in
http://www.airiti.com/ceps/ec_en/ecjnlarticleView.aspx?jnlcattype=1&jnlptype=4&jnltype=41&jnliid=1222&issueiid=35549&atliid=1752612
(in Chinese so I cannot read it) claim that the two number 38 and 74
in http://oeis.org/A007673 are not the correct ones, and ought to be <=31 and <=63?
In Guy/Nowakoswki there is a statement
that ApSimon shows that 38 and 74 suffice for n=6 and 7, but that is
not necessarily the minimum that we'd like to see in the sequence.
I don't have access to the ApSimon article, so I cannot tell how rigorously
the 38 and 74 have been derived originally.
