“It looks as though the Fischer-Reshevsky match may not be finished. The players were tied 5½-5½ at the end of the eleventh round.
Officials switched the time of the twelfth round from Saturday night to Sunday morning at the request of Reshevsky. Fischer objected saying he “was unable to arise so early and do himself justice at the chessboard.” The officials told him to appear or forfeit; so Bobby forfeited. He said he will not continue the match unless the decision is reversed.”
