Spassky Is Favored To Take First Match Presta Speaks On Political Era REYKJAVIK, Iceland (AP) Defending champion Boris Spassky was favored by the experts to beat American challenger Bobby Fiacher in the opening game of the world chess match when play resumes this afternoon. The opener of the richest chess competition in history adjourned Tuesday night after 4 hours and 34 minutes of play and 40 moves by each player. The game was to resume at 5 p.m.—1 p.m. EDT. Referee Lothar Schmid of West Germany will make Spassky's 41st move.

The Russian wrote it on a slip of paper and handed it to him in a sealed envelope at the adjournment. 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 sports hall: king and live pawns for Fischer; king, bishop and three pawns for Spassky. The match had appeared headed for a draw until tried to seize the initiative on his 29th move. 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. grandmaster Robert Byrne said it was a blunder and commented, is going to have trouble making a draw. I see how Spassky can lose." Analyzing the game for The Associated Press, international grandmaster Isaac Kashdan termed move "a rare miscalculation by the American He said it gave Spassky good prospects for a win. Svetozar Gligoric, the Yugoslav grandmaster present at the tournament, said, is doubtful whether black can save a Spassky, who had the first move, is playing the white pieces, Fischer the black. Fischer has played Spassky live times in the past, losing all three times he played the black pieces and getting draws both times he played the whites and had the advantage of the first move.

A draw counts half a point and a win a point in the 24- game championship match. To dethrone Spassky, Fischer needs points while the Rus sian can retain his crown with 12 points. The winner will get $153,125 in prize money, the loser H75, and in addition they will di vide equally an estimated uuu or more from film and television sales. MIAMI BEACH, Fla (AP) In 1960 political boss Alex Pres ta promised John F. Kennedy his machine would deliver a majority of 22,000 votes in 10 Kansas City wards.

Instead, he gave him 22,065. At 70, Presta is a smalltime machine politician who has spent a lifetime hustling votes, heeling wards and maneuvering twilight of his era. But as he sat alone in the lobby of the Ivanhoe Hotel and talked about the future of political machines, he made it clear he was not about to quit. and his people have succeeded in kicking out the old it's the biggest mistake they ever said Presta believe me, just to get his political pillow next to winning Democratic bed- Oiek Daley sitting fellows. on that convention floor Only 24 hours before his par- mean oldtime political ma ty picks a presidential candi- have come to a grinding date, the old pro in the spiffy white shoes held a one-man wake Tuesday night for the nw-d a little more oil, and we need to buy it from George said Presta, whose wife Millie was on the convention floor for the fourth time as a Missouri delegate Convicted of liquor law violations in the 1930s, Presta is not able to vote or serve as a delegate Presta's 10 wards encompass most of Kansas Italian- American northeast side.
