1 Assnriatfd Press REYKJAVIK Bobby Fisdh-rr apologized in writing yesterday to Boris Spassky for "disrespectful behavior" that threatened their world championship chess match, and Moscow's Tass news agency said "all demands of the Soviet delegation have been satisfied." It was announced that the first game would be played Tuesday. Fischer, the American challenger, and a the Soviet world champion, met last night to draw for the first move in the series of 24 games. Fischer drew the black pawn, giving Spassky the first move with white and a slight advanlae. The draw was done the same way park bench chess players would do it. Spasky two pawns one white, one hlack, juggled them behind his hack, then extended his closed hands to Fischer.

Without hesitation. Fischer hunched forward and pointed a finger at Spassky 's right hand. Fischer delayed the opening of the match, which was to have begun last Sunday, in a holdout for more money. More prize money was donated, but Spassky then demanded a written apology for Fischer's conduct before the Russian would play. In his letter to Spasky, Fischer called his attempt to grab a share of gate receipts "my petty dispute over money." and asked the Russian to accept his "sineerest apology." Fischer come?" Harry Golombek, an official of the International Chess Federation announced ttiat both players had agreed to begin play on Tuesday.

Like everything else, it started late. Spassky was the first to arrive, coming in 10 minutes before the scheduled start. The first question the Russians with him asked when they got backstage was, "Has Fsicher come?" The answer was no. Fischer showed up 22 minutes late. Wearing a light green three piece suit.

Fischer sat at. the board chatting with Spassky before the ceremony hegan. There were no handshakes. When he walked onstage at the Sports Talace, Fischer moved briskly to the side of the board with the white pieces. He lifted the white queen, tested its weight.

Then he did the same with all lfi pieces as he kept one hand stuffed in his pocket. He then sat down, folding his tall lrame into an armchair. Spassky. a shorter man. followed suit, putting his elbows on the edge of the table.
