Chess match way cleared by apology REYKJAVIK, Iceland (AP) Bobby Fischer made a full and penitent apology to Boris Spassky today, and organizers of the world chess championship match said the two would meet for their first game Sunday night. The organizers said it had been agreed in principle to hold the drawing tonight to determine which player would have the white pieces and with them the first move. The young American, in a letter delivered by hand this morning to the world chess champion from the Soviet Union, apologized for his disrespectful behavior.

Fischer, whose delayed arrival doubled the prize money for both him and Spassky but also started an avalanche of confusion, asked the Russian to accept my sincerest apology. I simply became carried away by my petty dispute over money with the Icelandic chess organizers, he wrote. The written apology from the American challenger was one of chief conditions posed by the Russians before Spassky would sit down at, the chess board with Fischer. had met Shearer through part-time employment.

The jury also reported that from the evidence presented jt appeared that Shearer killed Mrs. Cihak with a foot-long knife in her apartment and then returned to his apartment and killed himself with a rifle shot to the head.

Testimony at tlft inquests was given by Moline Police Capt. Wayne Carey, Moline Police Detective Charles Maddox and John Hansen of the state crime lab in Rock Island. Capt.
