Chess sources said Gudmundur Thorarinsson, president of the Icelandic Chess organization, was communicating with the Soviet chess federation in Moscow concerning the demand.

No such document has yet been presented to the Russian world champion, but Dr. Euwe said he was satisfied that it would be forthcoming.

Fischer presented an apology of sorts Wednesday when he broke his silence with a statement regretting the delay of the match.
