Fischer Places, Made Grandmaster
In a tense last-round battle at the Interzonal Chess Tournament at Portoroz, Yugoslavia, 15-year-old Bobby Fischer of Brooklyn drew with Svetozar Gligoric of Yugoslavia. The youthful U.S. chess champion finished in a tie for fifth place, sufficient to qualify for the Challengers Tournament next year, according to a report from the New York Times.
Fischer, with the black pieces, elected to play a variation of the Sicilian Defense which is considered inferior. Gligoric sacrificed a piece for strong attacking chances. Bobby held firmly, however, and after 32 moves a draw was agreed.
Brilliantly successful in his first international tournament, Fischer scored 12-8, winning six games, drawing 12 and losing only to Fridrick Olafsson of Iceland, with whom he tied in the standings, and to Paul Benko, former Hungarian champion, now a U.S. resident.
As a result of his score in this top-flight competition, Fischer became an international grandmaster. The announcement was made at the Stockholm headquarters of the International Chess Federation. Fischer is the youngest player ever to receive this rank.

The actual truth about Bobby Fischer's political views…

Bobby Fischer Gives “Peace Sign” in 1958 and the Peace Movement Calling for Nuclear Disarmament

Bobby Fischer in 1958 and the Peace Movement Calling for Nuclear Disarmament

Bobby was leftist-leaning, like his mother, Regina Fischer who went on a “Peace March” to Moscow in 1961 to put pressure on the Khrushchevs and U.S.S.R. toward disarmament.

(Readers' Digest) The Dark, Untold Story About the Peace Sign
“It originated as a symbol used by the Direct Action Committee Against Nuclear War (DAC). An artist, Gerald Holtom, was on the groups' board, and as a well-known designer, stepped up to create a symbol that would have not only a visual but also a political impact. The symbol was first displayed during a protest march that took place on Easter weekend of 1958. Protesters marched 52 miles from London to Aldermaston in Berkshire, which is the site of the Atomic Weapons Research Establishment to protest the use of nuclear weapons in war. This march was organized by the DAC and it was the first wide spread public display of the peace sign.”

Bobby's views never strayed far from his roots. The collage above, mentions BERTRAND RUSSELL, who was responsible for putting the peace signs on the 1958 banners and buttons of the activists. BERTRAND RUSSELL held strong views opposing the Apartheid of Israel. Just as Bobby did. Bobby never abandoned his leftist-leaning roots which he learned from Regina Fischer. He loathed Fascism.
