Default copy exec order 12810 (cited in arrest warrant against R Fischer)

..
I have read this executive order in detail. I cannot find any
provision or paragraph of this Executive Order which prohibits Bobby
Fischer from playing a chess match in Yugoslavia.



For once Sam Sloan is right. There was nothing in there to keep Bobby from
playing a skittles match in Yugoslavia, with no stakes.
Nothing. Also note (IGM Tomic) that he was free to swim around the island of
Sveti Stephan, so long as no stakes were placed on the outcome (Spassky would
have creamed him, Great White Shark or not). Of course, if money were
involved, it's a "whole nuther ballgame...."
