(e) Ntw York TimM Service EW YORK On Sunday night, while the chess world was wondering where Bobby Fischer was and whether he would turn up for his match with world champion Boris Spassky, the erratic young genius was off bowling on Long Island. No one recognized him, Fischer recalled gravely in a typically erratic interview Monday before his departure for Reykjavik, Iceland.

Nor, he added, had anyone recognized him in other excursions he made from his hideout at the home of a chess colleague, Anthony Saidy, in Douglaston, Queens, a wealthy residential area of New York City. lie amused himself well enough, he said, without thinking about chess. "Consciously," he added. During the interview Fischer paced. He crumpled and unfolded a white handkerchief in his left hand and chewed on an edge of it.

He picked momentarily at a cuticle. No, he said, he wasn't nervous. His dirty blond hair was vaguely combed, somewhat matted. He wore a diamond-design knit blue shirt and maroon slacks. Although seated inside on a green flowered sofa he unaccountably clutched a leather jacket in his lap.

AFTER REPORTERS had stood outside the sprawling Saidy house for two days despite repeated assertions by Saidy that Seagratas i am II' Extra Uvj 1 Gin 'UAt BOBBY Fischer leaves the plane in Iceland. Fischer was not inside Saidy emerged to announce that Fischer was indeed inside and would see a newsman. Saidy selected a representative from the New York Times. Inside the foyer of the house, Fischer appeared and demanded: "Where is the TV? I want the TV. I want television newsmen." The television crews of ABC and NBC waiting disconsolately outside were hurriedly summoned inside.

In the two-minute delay before the television newsmen he summoned appeared, Fischer, pacing restlessly, complaind: "They want to talk to me they're not even here." Seated on the sofa while the television men set up their machines, Fischer suddenly jumped. "What time is it?" he asked, seeming unconcerned at the answer. "There's too many people in here. I can't breathe," he announced next. HIS FRIENDS who had sheltered him these last few days began to leave the room.

"No, you can stay," he said, calling one unidentified watcher back. "Too many guys in here," be mumbled to himself. Asked why he finally agreed to talk to newsmen after bolting and hiding from them in the past, he said, without a smile he rarely smiled and then only momentarily "I feel people have a right to know what's going on. You can't sneak off when you're representing your country." While the interview was in progress, neighbors clustered on the sidewalk and peered through the windows at the famous recluse whose name most didn't even recognize. Earlier, one homeowner, when informed that Bobby Fischer was thought to be hiding in the neighborhood, said: "What's he doing here? Wasn't he married to Elizabeth Taylor?"

Asked what Fischer's opinion of the new dispute was, Euwe told newsmen: "Mr. Fischer is asleep and is not aware of this." He was In a new two-story villa on the edge of town sound asleep in the back bedroom.

Fred Cramer, a U.S. Chess Federation official, said: "I didn't want to upset Bobby's metabolism by waking him up." The waiting for Bobby ended early Tuesday when his Icelandic Airlines plane taxied to a stop at the airport five hours and 12 minutes before Euwe's disqualification deadline. He stayed out of sight in the plane until two lines of police formed a wall to seal him off from newsmen so he would not have to answer questions before he got in a waiting car. Then the tall 29-year-old grand master lurched out the door of the plane and careened down the steps of the ramp. He nearly bolted when the president of the Icelandic Chess Federation came up on his blind side and offered a welcoming handshake.

He was driven away to the green and buff colored villa under an escort of police cars. A STEWARDESS said Fischer hadn't been able to sleep during the 4-hour 40-minute flight from New York. "He spent most of his time looking out the window," she said. Fischer had a visit at the villa from the federation physician, Dr. Ulfar Thordarson, whose approval would be needed for a postponement on medical reasons.

Thordarson said Fischer was fit to play. Before he went to sleep, Fischer came out of the house in his stocking feet to ask the policemen around the house where the rest of his luggage was. He got his two overweight leather bags, one of them containing tennis gear, but he complained that some packages he'd checked in New York were missing. Continued from Page 1A news agency, Tass, said Spassky was indignant because Fischer did not show up for the pre-match ceremonies as originally scheduled on Sunday. "The public opinion in the USSR and personally, are indignant over Fischer's conduct.

Under all human notions he discredited himself completely," Spassky said. "By this he jeopardized his moral right to play in the match for the world chess crown. Fischer must bear the just punishment before there is a hope of holding the match. Only after this can I return to the question about the possibility of holding the match," Spassky said. Spassky did not specify what the punishment should be and Euwe said no formal request for punishing measures had been received.

Besides, he said, "what should I do? Put him in the corner?" Spassky had left the door open, for the match to be played. "I still want to play the match if there is a solution. I will not play today. I will make my decision in the next few days," he said. At first, Euwe did not share Spassky's confidence.

"The situation Is critical. I don't know if the match will be played at all. I am very pessimistic," he said. But he said later he hoped play could start Thursday, because "both parties have declared that they are ready to play the match." EUVVE HAD granted Fischer a two-day postponement, ostensibly for medical reasons, while Fischer bargained for more money. He agreed to play Spassky after a British banker said he would double the prize money to $250,000.
