All of I klTc- tup nrc-rn a Ftctory Trmned Mechinks chairs the Icelanders had assembled from Reykjavik's furniture stores the other day, sat down in some of them and then gave his verdict: "Fly in my own chair." It arrived Monday. Spassky, the 35-year-old world champion, did not seem to worry much about details of the $250,000 match. Before leaving for a salmon fishing tour of northern Iceland the defending champion said, "I am not going to argue about chairs, chess boards and sets. I will leave that to Bobby. It makes no difference to me." To accommodate Fischer, the lighting was dimmed and the first row of spectator, seats was moved farther a-way from the stage so the nearest spectator would be about 25 yards away.

Spassky, the reigning world champion and playing white, had already made the first move the queen pawn before Fischer walked into the sports arena Fischer walkeduptoSpas-sky and the two shook hands. Fischer studied the board for two minutes and moved his king knight to king bishop three.

Spassky made his move promptly at 5 p.m. and spectators watched the clock tick away until Fischer appeared. The match was postponed for more than two weeks, first while Fischer haggled over money and again when Spassky demanded-and got-an apology from Fischer. Earlier, Fischer made a last-minute demand to stop televising of the 24-game match. "There will be no TV filming tonight, but we hope some other arrangements can be made so they can film later during the match," said Fred Cramer" vice president of the U.S.

Chess Federation. Fischer said the television cameras, hidden behind cloth-covered scaffolding a-bove the stage where the players will sit, would distract him. Fischer's opponent said he was ready to plaj. "Everything is fine with me," said-the popular Russian. Fischer had complained a-bout a number of details in -the hall, including the lighting, the chess board and the size of the chess pieces, the television cameras and the thickness of the window drapes.

Earlier, Fischer took one look at the dozen different, 4 Spare Can Save Life 1 A swimmer needs emergency assistance how would you react? Don't panic help may be as close as your car trunk.
