Queens Top Chess King
Waltham, Mass (AP)—Chess Champion Bobby Fischer played 40 simultaneous matches at Brandeis University but not, students reported, until two coeds replaced a button on his jacket.
“He said he couldn't play without his jacket,” said Patricia Bardanell, a sophomore from Shelton, Conn.
“But he's got his jacket open, anyway,” Pat added.
The Connecticut girl said she was assisted in the sewing by Nadine Payn, a junior from New York City.
