Fischer's Success
The 14-year-old American prodigy, Bobby Fischer, has just achieved another astonishing success in winning the United States championship without loss of a game—10½ points out of 13. Fischer was a point in front of Reshevsky, generally recognized as the No. 5 player in the world, and far ahead of such well-known masters as Lombardy, Denker, and Bisguier. By this result Fischer has qualified for this year's interzonal tournament for the world championship, and it will indeed be interesting to see what further successes await this boy who is already far in advance of Morphy or Capablanca at the same age.
