Reshevsky Earns Draw
Threat of Perpetual Check Ends 11th Game in Chess
The summary of the adjourned eleventh game of the sixteen-game chess match between Bobby Fischer and Samuel Reshevsky at the Herman Steiner Chess Club in Los Angeles was received here yesterday. The game, played Friday night, resulted in a draw after fifty-seven moves.
Although he was the exchange behind, Reshevsky was able to bring about a position in which he could have perpetual check were Fischer to pursue his attack on the white king.
