Here's a pale, studious, almost timid-looking 29-year-old one-time Boy Wonder who makes guys like Joe Namath and Dick Allen look like, a couple of amateurs when it comes to doing his own thing, his own way and in his own good time.

The opening match in Reykjavik Tuesday was a perfect example. Word had filtered down that Fischer was "go, go, go" for that first match with Boris Spassky, Russia's world champion. All the embroidery had been taken care of. The drapes, the TV cameras, the lights, the chess board, all the things fVv Syfh since his back to back victories in 1960-61, was the first of the fancied transatlantic invaders to go out in the 20th pair with the Briton Tommy Horton. Three pairs later Trevino marched out with British Ryder Cupper Niel Coles, whose protest at being paired with the defending champion for the second successive year fell on deaf ears, while Nicklaus went out in the 63rd pair with 20-year-old South African Dale Hayes.

-The second half of Britain's mid-summer sporting spectacular opened today with Jack Nicklaus the bookies' choice to win the 101st British Open golf championship. The bookies were right when they tabbed Stan Smith to win the Wimbledon tennis title and it would take a brave man to bet against their being right again when the Open finishes Saturday. Nicklaus, who already has the Masters and U.S. Open titles under wraps, has offered no comment about being installed the 9-4 favorite, but he insists it's premature to talk in terms of the Grand Slam of golf. On the eve of the tournament, and after seven practice rpunds over the par 71 course, Nicklaus once again insisted: "If I win here then only will it be' realistic to talk about me completing the -slam in the final event the PGA at Detroit." Nicklaus said he would not be surprised if it took a total of more than 282 to win the title the score he shot when he won here in 1966.

Defending champion Lee Trevino said he'd go along with Nicklaus being tagged the favorite. "But remember this, fellas, I did not come here to finish second. I think I can win and I'm sure that is true of the other 15 Americans here." Both Nicklaus and Trevino agree that a lot of iron shots will have to be played from the tee, especially if there is no change in the wind, to counteract the fast course. The first of 77 pairs tees off at 7:30 a.m. with the last pair due out at 4:58 p.m.

By MILTON RICHMAN UPI Sports Writer NEW YORK you play chess?" "No," said Wes Parker, first baseman for the Los Angeles Dodgers and owner of one of baseball's more active minds, "but I'm interested in the game." "You mean the world championship going on in Iceland now?" "Yes, I'm following it." "Because of this guy Fischer?" "He's the main reason, I suppose." "How do you feei about him, do you like him or not?" "Hike him." "Why?" Wes Parker mulled it over awhile. "I like him because he has said Parker, using a word which is perfectly okay in a baseball clubhouse but not in a family newspaper, a word meaning not only brass but much more, and one which describes Bobby Fischer, the pensive, seemingly strange chesss genius from Brooklyn perhaps better than any other word you can think of. Most Serious Game Chess dates back to antiquity and has been called the most serious game played by -man.

It's such a serious game and requires so much concentration, relatively few men play it. Less than 5 per cent in the United States even know the rules but an astonishingly large percentage has begun Blairsville Gets Past New Deny Blairsville (14-2) upped its lead in the D-U Baseball league last night with a 2-1 win over New Derry in a makeup game. Though outhit, 9-2, Blairsville took advantage of two New Derry errors in the bottom of the sixth to take a 2-0 lead and send Bob Domerque down to defeat. Jim Racchini, who relieved Don'Brozick in the fifth inning, got credit for the Colts' win. Racchini came in with two on and one out and struck out one and retired the next batter on a fly ball to end a New Derry threat The Colts scored in the sixth when Bill Esposito was safe on a throwing error, went to second on a sacrifice by Dettore, Stan Jackubowski walked, Gene Esposito was safe on an error and Mike Urick slammed a two-run single.

New Derry rallied in the top of the seventh when Buster Wellek singled and scored on Mike Lukon's triple. Lukon and Al Razza each had two hits for the losers.

(UPI) Terry George, assistant pro at Seven Springs public golf course, goes into the final round of the 36-hole West Penn Open Golf Tournament today with a one-stroke lead and a stiff neck. But his ailing neck appeared to have no affect on Tuesday's opening rounds as George shot a two-under-par 69 to take the one stroke edge over former champion Roland Stafford at the Westmoreland Country Club golf course.

"Normally, I'm a hooker," George said. "But with my neck, I just swung easy and tried to cut the ball. But doggone if it wasn't going straight." my putts that's the difference," he added. The 25-year-old assistant pro birdied four holes, three of them on putts over 10 feet, including a 15-footer on No. 11.

Stafford, pro at Longue Vue Club, had three birdies and two bogeys for a 35-3470. Three amateurs John Birmingham, Chuck Cullison and Ron Milanovich were two strokes off the pace with 71s. A total of 79 players, comprising of the low 60 scores and ties, qualified for today's 18-hole finale. The low 10 scorers: Terry George, Seven Springs 35-34 69. Roland Stafford, Longue Vue 36-34 70.

Everyone in the Reykjavik Chess Hall was holding his breath as the Russian, playing the white pieces, made the first move, opening with the Queen pawn. Game Officially On The world championship officially was on. But something was missing. Fischer. He wasn't there.

What was the rush? He had an hour -before he had to make the first move. Fischer didn't set out to keep Spassky waiting. He didn't do it purposely. The official clock was ticking but he didn't care. Bobby Fischer ALWAYS is late.

He has been late for more important things than a chess match. Even a world championship one. And bet on it, he'll be late again. That's the way he is. Finally, after eight minutes, during which time Spassky get up impatiently and walked around, Fischer appeared.

He shook hands with Spassky and then sat down in his special swivel chair which he had flown in from New York for these championships. Fischer studied the board two minutes, then made his first move, knight to King bishop three. In his own mind, Fischer feels he's one little guy taking on the whole Russian government. He doesn't feel this way because of any politics, the usual politics between countries, that, is, but because of chess politics. Always Plays to Win Regardless, he always played to win.

Tuesday's first game was adjourned, meaning each man had made his allotted 40 moves in the five-hour time limit with no decision being reached. When the game is resumed today, Spassky will have the upper hand although Fischer can still get a draw. In this first of 24 games, Spassky the way everybody thought he would conservatively. That figured because if this whole business winds up even, say 12-12, Spassky goes back home to Russia the same way he came to Reykjavik world champion. Fischer has the first move in Thursday's second game, though.

Watch him go! He'll play a completely different game. You can bet on that, too. Wes Parker doesn't have to be a chess expert. He's still got Bobby Fischer tagged perfectly. jyyatav ii- evsv THIS WEEK OFJLV LI lyuyLS Au vyijil Uit Your Master Charge or BankAmericsrd Navy Store 313 MAIN LATROIE PHONE S37-3KI Open Thurs.

Miss Fassinger, 21, of New Castle Country Club, appeared on the verge of being upset in her first round match Tuesday against Mel Rorer at Sewickley Heights Golf Club. Down by three after eight holes, the Slippery Rock State College senior managed to cut the deficit to one going into the 354-yard 18th hole. Miss Fassinger then climaxed her comeback with a birdie on 18 after putting a long two-iron shot one foot from the flag.

She won the match 1-up on the 19th hole with a bogey five as her Philadelphia opponent faded with a double-bogey six. Miss Fassinger goes against Carol Semple today in the second round. Miss Semple, of Allegheny Country Club, the 1969 champion, defeated Mrs. Dee Rizza of Churchill Valley, 5-4, to advance in the tournament. Two other former state champions also won their matches Tuesday.

Judy Johnson of Fox Chapel, defeated Linda Clark of Pittsburgh Field Club, 5and 3, and Connie Hirschman of York, eliminated Marsha Forys of Valley Green, 2 and 1. Miss Johnson is the 1970 winner and Miss Hirschman is the 1968 champion." In the state Seniors tournament, defending champion Mrs. Evelyn Moreland defeated Mrs. Jon Home, 5 and 4, and medalist and former champion Mrs. Phyllis Semple of Allegheny defeated Mrs.

Sports Letter To The Sports Editor: First of all, may I say that this is the first time I have ever read, or written, to The Bulletin and that I find your paper a very good one. Last night I picked up a copy of your paper while in Ligonier and saw Mr. Showalter's column on rifle marksmanship in Southwestern Pennsylvania.

It was a good column, but it had one major discrepancy. For some reason, Munhall High School was ignored, although it. was one of the great pioneer "WPIAL rifle schools, compiling since its inception in 1934 many individual titles as well as 22 WPIAL titles. 19 PIAA championships, at least 17 National Rifle Association titles and a long line of Allegheny Interscholastic Conference and WPIAL sectional crowns. With the Steel Valley merger with Homestead was the inheritance by that school of the great MHS legend and now, after 39 years, a potential for local and national prominence still exists in the Munhall area as seen in that team's winning the second half championship in' Section II of the WPIAL.

Churchill, a team Steel Valley defeated twice during regular play, beat the Iron marksmen by one point and then almost won statewide honors ln post-season competition. While Mr. Showalter can definitely be called an authority on rifle in Southwestern Pennsylvania, I wonder why he would not include Munhall with such communities as Latrobe, Washington, Waynesburg and White Oak. These com- munities do deserve credit for their rifle heritages, but so does the Munhall area. Patrick M.

Cloonaif" 118 East Eugene Ave Mungall, Pa. EDITOR'S NOTE: We're sure Munhall was not overlooked purposely by Mr. Showalter. His article dealt mainly with the Latrobe area and the other communities listed were given only slight notices.
