This means that, if he ever gets short of time, he is able to steer his way calmly through complications that might baffle lesser players even without time trouble.

TIME TO BOOK YOUR mi Sir Harry Golombek writes about a new star. A 22-year-old West German student, Robert Huebner, was the great find of the recent Inter-Zonal Tournament at Palma de Mallorca. Not the youngest ever to have qualified for the Candidates event in the World Championship cycle (Bobby Fischer did it at an earlier age way back in 1958 at Portoroz in Yugr-slavia), he is still a babe-inarms compared with the usual qualifiers for that event. I first met him in 1965 when I was acting as chief judge at the World Junior Championship at Barcelona. His performance at that time was not all that noteworthy, since he came in seventh out of 28 players; all the same, I well remember saying then that of all the players in the tournament he and his style of play showed the most promise.

Since then, he has been engaged with studies at Cologne University where he is in the middle of a seven-year course of Latin and Greek. Only in the last couple of years, when he has had a little more leisure, has he revealed his true strength. To the surprise of everyone including himself, he qualified for the Inter-Zonal by sharing second prize with Czechoslovak Grandmaster Vlastimil Hort at a very strong zonal tournament in Athens. Now he has qualified with considerable ease for the Candidates, acquiring the Grandmaster title In the process. It is too early yet and we have not sufficience data to conjecture how far along the road he will go in the Candidates series of matches fii 0's Mai 'una JADE TIKI CRUISE Australia Ntw Ztaland and Overland IT-TW-1B $374 Mexico Ten days out of the ordinary.
