"protecting" is as much an art as a science.
Basically, the stripper is fond of doing its handy work near the top and 
bottom of pages.
Hence, I attempt to keep the "Chapter" a few lines away from the top by 
first leaving a couple of blank lines at the top of the page,
then a line of a couple of hypphens, then another blank line, then the 
page number, then a blank line, then a line with a couple of hyphens,, 
then the Chapter heading.
The idea is to give the stripper something to work on that can be lived 
without.
Another good idea is to place the word "chapter" on one line and the 
number of that chapter on the line below.
