Chess matches are not usually world happenings, but with the keen interest sparked by American Bobby Fischer challengiig Russian Boris Spassky tor the world title, it's a different situation. The Icelandic Chess Federation has put up close to $200 ,000 for the 24-game match, to be held for two months in Reykjavik, Iceland, starting July 2.

The games will be played in the a i Sportshall, which seats about 3,000 people. The match will be open to the public, and tickets will cost $5 a game or $75 for the 24 scheduled games. $125,000 PRIZES Of the $200,000 put up, some $125,000 will be paid in prizes to the players, according to the federation. Fischer, 29, and Spassky, 35, will also divide 60 per cent of the income from films and television. The federation has signed a 99-year contract with Chester Fox and Inc.

for exclusive worldwide visual rights, including rights to film the match and still photos of the match taken inside the Sports-hall. Fox and the federation will split the profits equally. The price Fox paid for tin rights is undisclosed, but he did say he would have to spend some $200,000 for the color filming. "I guess it's a coup, but it's quite an undertaking," Fox said in New York. SEEKS TV BIDS He has asked for bids from interested television stations in countries throughout the world.

He is concerned with the highest bidders in each country, and if a contract is signed, he will send them film clips as the match progresses. 1 1 be negotiating straight through Sunday and beyond. It's been very hectic. There'B a lot of interest in it, more so in the rest of the world than in the United States," said Fox, who adds that the only two countries which have sent cables saying they would not bid are Kuwait and Jordan. "We've spoken with Tass, briefly There hasn't been that much interest from the Russians," says Fox, adding that he will not name countries negotiating, or those which have signed contracts, until negotiations are finalized.

In the United States, ABC has contracted for exclusive film rights. The Fox film segments will be shown Saturdays on the ABC program, "Wide World of Sprts." Fox declined to say how much ABC paid for the rights. He did comment that he has not suggested bid prices fpr those interested. MEDIA ARE FAIR "I find the news media have their own way of evaluating this. They're immensely fair," said Fox, adding he has used a sliding scale depending on the country.

However, in the United States, Channel 13-WNDT, New York, and Teleprompter Cable TV have planned programs discussing the action at the match, without the use of the Fox film. Channel 13 plans a move-by-move commentary and analysis on the match, by chess master Shelby Lyman, who will work from a studio in Albany, N.Y., using vertical boards to illustrate the moves. The i coverage would start this Sunday and run from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m., nationally. It would continue three times a week throughout the match, with shorter broadcasts Tuesday and Thursday for cities on the Eastern seaboard.

THREATENS SUIT Richard Gitter, lawyer for Channel 13-WNDT, said Fox and the federation threatened to go to court, if these plans were not abandoned. He told them that plans were being continued and that he was authorized by Tele-prompter to similarly inform. "There's something outrageous about the Chess Federation and Fox trying to limit coverage," said Gitter. "It could have been any kind of major news event." "I think the people who'll be watching us will not be the same people who're watching Wide World of Sports. I don't think we're competitive," said Frank Leicht, vice president n.4 1 1 t1 'ill I provincial styled with the flowing curving I hi I I 1 fj "Zal I sfv filigree pulls and open lattice headboard I 1 IJbssss5 (k are features you'd expect at so much Hfej "s-" i 5 I -f mSk more- Included are spacious dresser, 5' VP mirror, twin, full or queen size head- '-'M I pvjjp py i'iiiim tyij board and one night stand.
