The lanky Brooklyn, N.Y., challenger galloped his bishop, down a long black diagonal to snatch an unprotected pawn Spassky -had offered. A few moves later the bishop was trapped and lost in exchange for two pawns.

U.S. grpndmaster Robert' Byrne sard it was a blunder and commented, "Fischer is going to have trouble making a draw. I don't see how Spassky can lose." Spassgy's 41st move.The Russian wrote it on a slip of paper and handed it to him in sealed envelope at the adjourn ment. The two competitors, their seconds and chess enthusiasts throughout the world spent part of the overnight break analyzing possibilities for the 11 pieces remaining. on the green-and-white chessboard in Rey.

The match had appeared Svetozar the Yugoslav grandmaster present at the tournament, said, "It is doubtful whether black can save a draw." Spassky, who had the first move, is playing the white pieces, Fischer the black. Fischer has played Spassky five times inthe past, losing aU three times he played the black pieces and getting draws both times he played the whites and had the advantage of the first move.

Only a strong push from Sen George McGovern can saye the, new charter, in the view of its' sign up members in a national Ipionship contests on record. It was no surprise when Spassky, who had the white pieces and made the first move, started Democratic party and have them pay annual dues. They envision a steady flow of dues that would provide the oner- of consideration with players of this stature. But it happened. On his 29th turn, Fiseher took a pawn that was unprotected.

Both players knew that the bishop which captured the pawn could be trapped. What had Fischer seen? It must be put down to a rare miscalculation by the American genius. Perhaps he had thought of a resource by when the bishop might escape. Spassky could then continue B-Kt8; 34, KxP, BxP; 35, B-Q2, and the black bishop is still lost. In the remaining moves of the session, Fischer put up all the resistance possible.
