Fischer Vs. Reshevsky
The chess players who enjoy watching the masters in action will have a rare opportunity in the eight match games between U.S. Champion Bobby Fischer and former champion Samuel Reshevsky.
Tickets will be priced at $2 for the opening session in the grand ballroom of the Beverly Hilton Hotel on Thursday evening, July 27. The rate will be $1.50 for each of the seven games to be held at the Herman Steiner Chess Club. A book of tickets for all the games will be $10.
Since the Steiner club is sponsoring the Los Angeles portion of the match, its members will be charged half the above rates, according to Mrs. Jaqueline Piatigorsky, president of the club.
All the participants in the recent all-city high school chess championship have been invited to attend the opening game.
