AN INDIANAPOLIS MAN, Robert Byrne, is probably as qualified as anyone in the world to evaluate the upcoming world championship chess match between Russia's Boris Spassky and Bobby Fischer of the United States. The match, which is certain to be the first chess match in history to rate headline coverage because of the political overtones, was discussed by Byrne in an article he penned for Sports Illustrated magazine last week.

Byrne, one of only seven International Grand Chess masters in the U.S., has beaten Fischer twice and has registered a draw with Spassky as recently as last May. Byrne said preparation for the coming world championship match is unprecedented. Fischer is supposed to be studying films of Spassky in action in order to see how the Russian reacts to various situations on the board and which ones he finds the most difficult.

Lori Ann Hcrndon, a fifth grade pupil at School 5, is the author of today's prayer, which was written in her Weekday-Religious Education class while studying the lesson, "Jesus and the Thankful Leper." Pupils are studying the curriculum unit, "Stories Jesus Heard Heroes of the Early Hebrews," this semester, and will be not only learning how the Old Testament heroes used the Ten Commandments, but also how they can apply these rules to their own daily living. DEAR DR. Steincrohn: I am sure my nervous breakdown began with a guilt complex. For months before douJble Unit them more later when they suffered guilt complexes after his sudden death. "Why didn't he tell us?" was the sorrowful cry.

I advise people not to broadcast their illnesses to associates and friends, but to take their own family into full confidence. Only in this way can they expect full understanding and cooperation.

Now you are confused and don't know where to turn next. What I suggest is that (if possible) each patient have a family physician as adviser. Then they won't be running off to see a surgeon when I hoy really need to sec a psychiatrist; to a dermatologist when they need an allergist; to a heart specialist when they really need to consult one who specializes in treating emphysema. Your family doctor will tell you if, when, and where to specialized diagnosis and treatment. Often, he can take care of your problem adequately without help.
