CHESS TIME Youth and age to clash By JOSEPH MILL BROWN In one respect the final of the Candidates Chess Matches, at Moscow in Sep- tember, will be. the classic en- counter: callow youth versus 'dyspeptic middle -age. Chess -watchers are not sur- prised by the presence in the. final of 22 -year-old. Anatoly Karpov; a few reckless' livers will even bet he beats `Bobby Fischer. But they are aston- .-ished his opponent will be Vic- tor Korchnoi, who has beat his head against so many walls, he now sports the most fa- mous Ulcer in the kingdom of chess. (Legend has it that, at the 1967' Interzonal in Sousse, Tu- nisia, Fischer claimed to have the name of the best chess - player in the Soviet Union, but wasn't advertising it lest the man break out in a rash of self-confidence. The name was presumed to be 'Victor Korchnoi.') If Korchnoi wins, it will be poetic justice; his careeris a litany to the meaning and the importance 'of chess. Some addicts claim he made the ultimate sacrifice, a cou- ple of years ago, when he gave up smoking and drinking be- cause o-cause he believed they im- paired his sharpness. (A sam- ple of the new Korchnoi is the game below.) But a Korchnoi victory would probably cut very little ice with some social critics for whom the Fischer-Spassky match was an anthropological happening. Chess, one of them claimed, was awash in trivia and abounded "in the absence of language." In short: a big deal about nothing. Former world champion Emanuel Lasker - who was also a philosopher, a mathe- matician, and an intimate of another dabbler . chess, Al - AN ATTRACTIVE FIXTURE AVAILABLE FROM CIIANTRY'S HOUSE of LIGHT 488 -10th Ave, 364.1679 HANOVER bert Einstein - held another opinion about the game. • "Nothing is better calcu- lated to systematize the thoughts of a student . than a knowledge of and a moderate indulgence in chess," he wrote. "Nothing can more forcibly impress on his mind the danger of judging by ap- pearances, or of basing his conclusions on unproved premises - for nowhere are appearances more deceptive or sound reasoning' more nec- essary to success:" Lasker was not alone in his evaluation of the worth of chess. One of Leonardo da Vinci's proudest accomplish- ments stemmed from his visit to Madrid where, in the pres- ence of the King of. Spin, he defeated the ecclesiastical chessmaster, Ruy Lopez. Leonardo reportedly re- turned home laden with hon- ors and riches, which would surprise most present-day chess. pros. But the incident underscores whatit is that motivates the serious player: the chance to live as an artist and a free man. (At age 45 the 19th Century French artist Paul Verlaine gave up painting ,for chess. That was the dream. The re- ality was that, at 60, he gave up chess and went back to painting, which- is the usual route, nowadays, for carpen- ters and plumbers. The one who had it all together was the Swiss master, Henri Grob, •who, in the 1920s, started out as a professional artist with chess as a hobby, and wound up a professional chessplayer with art as a hobby,) But the essence of chess may have' been • best ex- pressed by ex -champ Tigran Petrosian. When asked how he prepared for an important contest, he responded gimply, "The main thing is to examine your own weaknesses" - a sentence not exactly over- loaded with words. but not ex- actly trivial either. Petrosian went°on to reveal that "one experienced player decided, on the eve of an portant match, that he lacked boldness. So he went out and ski'd down a steep slope in pitch -darkness - and his play . became more enterprising," but that may have been be- cause his games were played from a hospital bed.
