Default 200 Words by Lev Khariton - "My Chess Predecessors"

It seems that Mr. Blair is not alone in his superficial reading, so I have
to recall one more time (thread-Popularity contest and bad qualities) that
Mr. Euwe was FIDE President in 1975, and what has he done:
-------------------------
He was very
respected and had big influence on all delegates on general assembly FIDE
in Nice (June 30. 1974) and on extra FIDE conference (March 20. 1975).
Delegates accepted the first Fischer's claim to play without limit of the
game numbers (37:33). But, the second Fischer's claim was refused. That

was
Fischer's claim that he detain the title if the result in match would be
undecided, 9:9. That claim was refused with 35:32 and 3 votes were

retired.
You know that Fischer's demand was used by other WCC (e.g. Botvinnik,
Lasker). So, it was fair to accomplish Fischer's claim. But, President

FIDE,
Maks Euwe didn't do anything. He proclaimed Karpov World Chess Champion,
though he has not won WCC Bobby Fischer in the match. On April 3rd 1975,

at
11 o'clock a.m he declared that Bobby was not more World Chess Champion.

-------------------------------

So, chess establishment ruled in 1975 removed Fischer from the chess

throne.
It's obviously that Fischer was not afraid of Karpov. By the way, you can
see Chessmetric evaluation of the strength Karpov and Fischer in 1975. The
difference was too big ...


OK Goran, but where do you (or Khariton) see here "criminal"
non-interference of USCF ? Simply I disgust such insulting statements
without any proofs.

Regards,

Jerzy
