This analysis was published by R. G. Wade in November issue of BCM
1958, page 301. He wrote "11.Ne6!! was found by me several years ago
when i had played ...Na5 for black and had the dubious satisfaction of
showing Bhend what he missed",(Bhend-Wade ,Mont Pelerin sur Vevey,
Clare Benedict Cup 1955).
Bob repeated the claim of authorship about three years ago in a lecture
at London's Athenaeum chess club. I am certain it is correct.
Fair enough Si, but as someone else mentioned:
"The game is on page 59 in The Games of Robert J. Fischer by Wade and
O'Connell."
Why didn't Wade mention it there?
The league season closes in London over the Summer months as Alan may
recall. There is a small chance I shall be seeing Bob in the next few
weeks, but more probably it will be this winter. I shall try to remember
to ask him. I am not prepared to ring Bob over this matter.
I had to ring Bob on another matter, so I brought this up. Bob could not
remember why he had not mentioned it in the book; which is fair enough, he
is in his eighties and this was a long time ago. Bob did confirm the claim
and further stated specifically that Fischer got the idea from his (R.G.
Wade's) analysis.

Simon.
