Tal And Auerbach Draw In 19 Moves
Petrosian-Bronstein Match in 14th Round Adjourned in Interzonal Chess
Mikhail Tal and Tigran Petrosian, Russian grandmasters, remained first and second, respectively, in the standing at the interzonal chess tournament at Portoroz, Yugoslavia, after the fourteenth round, according to a report received last night through Yugoslav news sources.
Tal played a short draw of nineteen moves with Yuri Auerbach, another Soviet grandmaster, who is third in the race. Petrosian adjourned a hard-fought session with David Bronstein of Russia after forty-one moves. The likelihood is that it will end in a draw.
The two Americans, Bobby Fischer and James T. Sherwin, both of New York, were paired, and played for forty-one moves of a Ruy Lopez until adjournment time. Fischer had the white pieces.
The fourteenth-round winners were Ludek Pachman, Czechoslovakia; Laszlo Szabo, Hungary; Fridrik Olafsson, Iceland, and Oscar Panno, Argentina.
