The U.S. Junior Championship, open to players under 20, will begin July 8 at San Francisco. Bobby Fischer may compete in this event, but it is also possible that the 14-year-old Brooklyn star will travel to Iceland as a member of the American team that will compete there for the college world championship next month.
Other members already chosen for the American team are William Lombardy, Arthur Feuerstein, Anthony Saidy, Edmar Mednis, and Robert Sobel of Temple. As usual with any competition involving American players abroad, however, it all depends on whether sufficient funds for their expenses can be raised in this country.
