"A world championship match, the best of 24 games in a series of five-hour sessions over a periods of eight weeks and requiring constant unremitting concentrationa single lapse of at ah In the rarefied atmosphere of world-class chess, where genius is commonplace and where mental- agility and stamina meet their severest test, a scholarly Soviet electrical engineer has performed an unprecedented feat. Mikhail Botvinnik, 49-year-old grandmaster from Leningrad, routed Mikhail Tal, brilliant 24-year-old Latvian, and regained the world chess championship May 13 for the second time.

As the years go by Tal's tactics are; losing their acuteness and opportunity to enjoy a SPORT JACKETS by any other master of the present time and by few of the past." Alexander describes Botvin-nik's victory as "at least as much a triumph of character as of intellect: he succeeded something he failed to achieve last year in imposing his style of game on Tal." "Tal is a tactician of genius: he is at his best in very complicated positions, where he shows amazing insight and imagination; he is unequalled in his ability to build winning attacks in such situations. "Botvinnik is a profound strategist: he excels in long-range planning and in subtle manoeuvring to create and exploit weaknesses starting from quite ordinary-looking positions; his judgment in such positions is superb. "So the decision rested largely on whether Tal would be able to get the complex situations that suited him or Botvinnik would succeed in keeping the games in quieter channels and then outplaying Tal strategically.

Won In 1948 Botvinnik first won the world championship in 1948 in a tournament to name a successor to the late Alexander Alekhine. He lost to countryman Vasily Smyslov in 1957 but returned the next year to regain the title. Up to that time Alekhine had been the only champion to make a comeback, regaining the championship from Max Euwe of the Netherlands. Alekhine was 45 at the time, the oldest man ever to become champion until Botvinnik did it at 47. Harry Golombek, international master from London who was judge of the latest match, said GRAY HOOKS 111 carefully for major competition that he once had a friend blow cigaret smoke in his face while practising for a tournament against several heavy smokers, won over his youthful opponent in 21 games in Moscow.

In all, he won 10, lost five and drew six with Tal, who wrested the title from him a year earlier with a pyrotechnic display of unorthodox chess strategy. The number of decisions was high for a world championship in which draws usually predominate. A year ago Tal won six, lost two and there were 13 draws.
