A victory yields one point, a draw half a point, and after Wednesday's match Spassky began Wednesday complaining that a movie camera 150 feet away was making him nervous. The camera was hardly visible in the dimness outside the lighted players' circle, and it could not be heard by Fischer, but aides said the knowledge of its presence unnerved him. Chief referee Lothar Schmid of West Germany, who makes the decisions on all contested points in connection with the match, told Fischer during his walkout there was nothing he could do about the camera.

PATERSON, N.J. 07501 By ISAAC KASHDAN International Grandmaster LOS ANGELES (AP) -When Bobby Fischer and Boris Spassky resumed play in the second session of their first match game, it was clear to the experts that Spassky should win. Fischer continued the game Wednesday for an additional 15 moves, then resigned. He might have carried on for a few more moves, or resigned earlier. There was no longer any hope for a draw.

Spassky's task was not particularly difficult. He had gained a bishop late in the first session due to an error by-Fischer. Fischer had two pawns as compensation for the bishop, but they were separated and weak. The pawns soon fell as a result of Spassky's good coordination of his king and bishop. There were then two courses open to Fischer.

Unfortunately for the American, there was no real hope with either one. The one he chose was to attack Spassky's rook pawn. SUMMER (jXLEARANCEj I aenn9'on Pino MONROE. 5 United FURNITURE STORE Wifz Ssseft 51 n. main st.

Spassky would free his one remaining pawn and in a few moves advance it to queen. Whenever Fischer's pawn moved up. the long-ranging bishop was there to hold it. The alternative course for Fischer was to retreat his king to QB1 or thereabouts to defend his remaining pawns.

Curiously enough, this would have led to a draw if Spassky's pawn had been on R5 instead of R4.
