Chess Test Postponed by Illness
Vancouver, B.C. — Illness tonight forced postponement of the fourth round of the world chess championship quarterfinal match between U.S. grand master Bobby Fischer and Soviet grand master Mark Taimanov, as the Russian complained of high blood pressure.
The round will be added on at the end of the match. The next round is scheduled for Tuesday.
Fischer leads the match 3-0 and needs only 2½ points more to win and advance in the elimination series for a challenger to world champion Boris Spassky of the Soviet Union next year.
