Chicago Tribune, Saturday, July 15, 1972 'ttirit V28- Section IB Spassky Holds 2-0 Edge Fischer's Appeal of Chess Forfeit Rejected Leonard a REYKJAVIK, Iceland, July 14 AP-Bobby Fischer charged today that tournament organizers seemed to "upset and provoke me" deliberately, but a committee rejected his request to replay the chess game he forfeited to Boris Soviet Chess Players Irked, Demote 'Bobby' to 'Fischer' Spassky. The prospect of a major Soviet-Ameri-can confrontation over the chess board was exciting and appealing. But the admiration has turned to disgust. For the park bench players, Fischer is either "sumashedshy" crazy. or The world champion from the Soviet Union was awarded yesterday's second game in the championship match when Fischer refused to appear.

Fischer stayed in his hotel suite, because he objected to three moving picture cameras scared. in the hall. Spassky on Wednesday had won the first game and held a 2-0 edgerin the 24-game series after Fischer's failure to ap-pear yesterday. He needs 10 more points to retain the title and Fischer needs 12 points. A victory counts one MOSCOW, July 14 APMoscow's park bench chess players used to call him "Bobby." Now it's "Fischer." They used to respect and even privately root for the American who wants the world chess crown.

They don't any more. About 6 million Russians take chess seriously and there's a growing feeling among them that Fiscber has become downright insulting. "This is chess, not baseball," said one chess fan. "Fischer's no sportsman." Praise for Spassky There was only praise for Boris Spassky, the Russian world champion who has waited patiently in Reykjavik as Fischer caused delay after delay over his demands xior more money, better lighting and, at ilast report, for the removal of filmv cameras from the match site. It was Fischer's self confidence, his individually and his public claim to being world's best chess player that captured the Russians' imagination.

'r Perhaps bored with the knowledge that the world crown has remained in Russian hands for 24 years, the man on the street was not overly distraught when Fischer crushed Russia's Tigran Petrosian for the right to face Spassky. point and a draw half, a point.

Nutshell Interview BENNY DUNN, once renowned as the master of ceremonies at the old Black Orchid, and now known as a publi-citor for the Playboy empire, is going to be a judge, this afternoon, of the Miss Nude America contest at a place called Naked City, Ind.

We looked it up in a gazetteer and couldn't find it on any map. It's a nudist colony with no zip code number. "I don't know where it is," Benny confessed. "Somebody's driving me there." "You're no expert on nudity," we said to Benny. "How are you going to judge?" Benny said: "I'm just going to guess." Nutshell Mini Interview THERE WAS a little guy, about 3 years old, walking down the sidewalk, holding his daddy's hand.

He was dressed in a Cubs uniform, and that didn't exactly turn us off. So we asked him if he bad a ball or bat or glove to go with his nice baseball outfit. Bashfully, eyes downcast, he scrutinized the sidewalk, silently. At last his daddy told us: "I guess he isn't giving inter-! views today." Citizens Back Criticism Either way, the average Russian privately agrees with his government newspapers. For months the Soviet press has criticized the American? challenger as "a money grubbing businessman," a chess player who carries around with him "a disgusting spirit of gain." "Fischer's nothing more than a capitalist," one bearded player complained.

"For him business comes before sports." The news media here haven't devoted much attention to the chess match. However, the average Russian chess player knows Fischer is down two points and that Spassky hasn't even begun to fight. Confused at first, but willing to accept the American's desire for more money, most of the park players now attribute Fischer's latest demands to fear of defeat at the hands of the world champion.

He stuck the sealed envelope in Spassky's pigeon hole and the Russian got it as he was eating breakfast in the hotel dining room.

The National Game ASTROTURF has come to the old American games of marbles or vice versa. Two little guys who said they were brothers, and we'd guess they were about 8 and 10 years old, were out in front of the Sheraton-Chicago hotel, on Michigan Avenue, Tuesday morning. There's a spread of artificial turf between the sidewalk and the entrance, and these guys, who, with their parents, were guests of the hotel, were playing marbles on the phony greensward.

There was quite an assemblage of onlookers, standing around on the sidewalk with half smiles on their face. Honestly, if Fritzel's had had that many customers in recent months it still would be in business. jfv jb 111 Charges Camera Noise In a seven page letter to aiAUb LET'S A "It seemed to me that the organizers deliberately tried to upset and provoke me by the way they coddled and kowtowed to that camera crew.
