Ressler, of Rawlinsville. Chess FISCHER REYKJAVIK, Iceland (AP) Organizers of the world unable today any chess championship, were break-through in their deadlock over money with Bobby Fischer. On the eve of. Fischer's scheduled challenge match with world champion Boris Spassky of Russia, officials of the Icelandic Chess Federation said they still had no assurances that Fischer would appear. NEW CONDITION Almost at the last minute the 29-year-old American grand master sent word that he wouldn't play Spassky in Iceland unless a new condition was met: 30 per cent of the gate receipts for the 24 games in addition to a share of a $125,000 purse and a piece of television and film income already contracted for.

Eshleman Cites Flood Record Rep. Edwin D. Eshleman issued a statement Friday deploring the introduction of politics into the business of meeting the flood emergency. "It would appear that some candidates are thinking of what's good for them rather than what's good for the flood victims, Eshleman stated. "Some supporters of my opponent were out on the streets with a handbill accusing me of not supporting flood-related legislation.

"To set the record straight, the legislation referred to in flyer has little or nothing to do with aid in the present emergency. "The victims are going to be helped under the Disaster Relief Act of 1970, a piece of legislation that I supported. "The bills referred to in my opponent's flyer were a Housing Act and a Public Works authorization, and both were voted on in the 90th Congress four years ago." Sylvan Z.
