HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Wingham Advance-Times, 1975-07-03, Page 16Pse -Crossroads-July 3. D.975 - CHESS PINTS Masson matches slated in July" By ROSS WILLIAMS Saratoga, Calif., is the home of the Paul Masson mountain vineyard, site of the third annual Paul Masson Class Championships chess tournament, July 19-20. Saratoga Is situated on the eastern slope of the Santa Cruz Mountains, and pro- vides its residents with a panoramic view of the Santa Clara Valley and the southern end of San Francisco Bay. The games will be played in a large outdoor area at the vineyard, and it's difficult to conceive a more beautiful setting for a chess tourna- ment. Some of us would play for nothing in ,this setting, but Browne Vintners, makers of Paul Masson wines, and the U.S. Chess Federation are providing a to rnament. that will bring in enough registra- tions for a $10,000 prize fund. . The weekend tournament will be' a four -round (five rounds for the lowerclass sections) Swiss System with prizes for top players in eight class sections from master to unrated. The tournament was first held in 1973 with 537 players. • Six hundred fifty-eight par- ticipated in 1974. The antici- pation is for a like number this year. Life Master Kinn Commons won. the tournament in 1973. Competing with Kim in 1974 was Grandmaster Walter Browne, U.S. cochampion John Grefe, and Canadian champion Peter Biyiasas. Kim lost his final round game with the Canadian champion, to give Biyiasas the half point he needed to edge past Walter Browne for the top prize. The Chilton Book Co. has published "The Chess of Bob- by Fischer," by Robert E. Burger, with a hard cover price of $12.50. Bill Ternay's jacket design for the new book depicts the former world ..champion as ,the king . piece on. a Chess- board, and the' book contains considerable evidence to sup- port the picture. Robert Burger has devoted almost his entire attention in the book to a study of how Bobby Fischer plays chess. There is a group of chapters covering each of the major divisions of chess: the end game, the middle game and the openings. Portions of more than 280 of Fischer's games are analyzed with an equal division between the black and whiteieces for Fischer - a rare feature in books of this kind. The book has a foreward by Frank Brady and an epilogue by Los Angeles Times chess, editor Isaac Kashdan, a grandmaster. Frank Brady wrote a biography of Fischer in 1965 with a revised edition in 1973, entitled: "Profile of a Prodigy: The Life and Games of Bobby Fischer." The chess of Fischer is not written for the masters, but those below that level can benefit from it. Game of the Week. Kim Commons, who won the 1973 Paul Masson Tournament and placed high in 1974, is a young California player with considerable talent. In this week's game from the 1974 U.S. championship, he takes the measure of Grandmaster Samuel Reshevsky. and -a4 all "Off the ground.

Tom gets the burner lit, but not in time and the balloon touches down gently then bumps back into the air. But the sun's starting to heat the air now and the winds are picking up, so the lesson's over for the day.

Tom Bamsey didn't do badly for his first attempt at piloting a balloon, not badly, at all for a guy who. spends most of his year as a student studying fisheries and wildlife at • the••• University, of • Guelph: . It ' wasn't the kind of summer the 25 -year-old student had planned. He'd originally lined up the same job he'd held for the last five years, working for a land- scaper, but then he saw a news- paper article concerning the Guelph Canada Manpower Centre for Students. The article, which ran in the Guelph Daily Mercury, men- tionedthat the centre had alb vacancy 'for a person to learn to pilot a `hot air balloon. "We were swamped," said Don Keenliside, a student assistant at the Guelph CMCS. The CMCS received more than 200 applica- tions for the job and Don referred about 20 people. Peter Owens, who owns the balloons, said he settled on Tom easily. "It's important that you be responsible and able to make fast decisions on your own. You're flying thousands- of dollars' worth of equipment and you have to decided *hat to do quickly if you're coming up on power lines, so you don't burn up the balloon and get yourself elec- trocuted." 1Crossroads1 Published every Wednesday as the big, action cross-country section in The Listowel Banner, The Wingham Advance -Times and The Mount Forest Confederate.
