Reshevsky Unconvinced
While giving full credit to Bobby Fischer, the young Brooklynite who has twice headed him in tourney play for the American title, Samuel Reshevsky has expressed the opinion that superiority between two players can only be fully measured in match-play. Too much depends on the play of the other competitors in tourneys. At any rate he would welcome such a test. Sammy has never been beaten in the eight matches he has so far engaged in. Bobby has played only one match, winning easily from Rodolfo Cordosa, of the Philippines, at New York a year ago.
