Reshevsky Holds His Lead In Chess
Unzicker Ties Evans for 2d After Drawing Adjourned Game In Buenos Aires
Two American grand masters continued to pace the field last night in the international chess tournament at Buenos Aires, according to South American news sources.
Samuel Reshevsky is in first place with a 7—3 score after ten completed rounds. Larry Evans, the only man to beat Reshevsky in the tournament so far, is tied for second with Wolfgang Unzicker of West Germany with 6½—3½.
Neither Reshevsky nor Evans played yesterday, but Unzicker finished an adjourned game with Alberto Foguelman of Argentina. The match, involving a Caro-Kann defense, ended in a draw after seventy-two moves.
The longest game of the tournament, between Bobby Fischer of the United States and Mark Taimanov of Russia, was also a draw after eighty-seven moves of a Nimzowitsch defense. The Russian had a bishop and a pawn opposed to a bishop in the ending, but could not prevail.
