Page 10-A Son Antonio July 15, 1972 Fischer Appeal Rejected Chess Whiz Loses a Game A I Iceland (AP)- Rohhy Fischer charged on Friday thai a organizers seemed to "upset and provoke! me" deliberately, but an a peals committee rejected liisj requcsl tn replay the came he forfeited lo Moris Spassky. The world champion from (lie Soviet Union was awarded Thursday's second game in the championship match when Fischer refused to appear, in his hotel suite, because he objected to three moving picture cameras in the hall. Thus Spassky, who won the first game, was 2-0 in the 24- game scries. He needs 10 more points lo retain the title. A victory counts one point and a draw hnlf a point.

Fischer agreed lo go ahead with Ihc match if Ilic cameras were removed, although the movie and television rights allowed the Icelandic Chess Federation to offer a record purse for Die two play-j ers. In a seven-page letter to l-ottiar Schmid, the chief referee, the American said he was told the cameras would be silent and invisible but "nothing could have been farther from the facts." In his letter, however, he asscrtcd: "The bungling unknowns who claimed to be professional cameramen were clumsy, rude and deceitful. The only thing invisible, silent and out of sight was Ihc fairness of the part of the organizers. "I have never compromised on anything affecting playing conditions of the game itself, which is my arl and my profession. "It seemed lo we thai the organizers deliberately tried to unset arid provoke me by Ihe way they coddled and kowtowed lo that (camera) crew.

"I am keen to play this match, anil hone game Iwo; will be scheduled for Sunday 1C at five in the afternoon." Fischer declared that when Ihe camera eqninrnenl had been removed "1 will lie at the chessboard."
