Ir. Oicar K. ItrmU president of the Chautauqua Institution, said late yesterday: "Dr. Walter Hendl will be unable to assume his responsibilities as conductor and musical director of the Chautauqua Symphony Orchestra during the 1972 season." He said Hendl's health had remained "unstable" since his resignation from the Eastman directorship on May 24.

It was Rcmick's decision, he said, that Hendl not conduct 18 concerts between July 5 and Aug. 22. Rcmick cited "a concern for the health of Dr. Hendl as well as the needs of this institution." Hendl had been scheduled to conduct Wednes ty V. 1 day's opener, a "Music of Austria" program with pianist Muriel Kllby.

That concert will be conducted by Evan Whallon, director of the Chautauqua School of Music and conductor of the Columbus (Ohio) Symphony Orchestra. Dr. Remick said he has appointed Millard Taylor, professor of violin at the Eastman School and conccrtmaster of the Chautauqua Symphony Orchestra, and Murray Schnee, Chautauqua Symphony manager, as "orchestral coordinators." Hendl was not available for comment yesterday. From Theodore Price By CECILIA VIGGO Not all "Jesus people" are "Jesus freaks." The Pentecostal Movement has attracted thousands of "respectable" Christians housewives and postal clerks, businessen and students, college professors and clergymen. Each week, in many homes throughout the nation, including Rochester, these Christians gather to pray.

Their prayer meetings are Joyful full of hymn-singing and personal accounts of the effects of Providence in their lives. At times, they evoke the old revival tent meeting, as individuals cry, "Thank you, Lord, prai.se you, Lord." Some, moved by the proceedings, weep. But the meetings evidence little hysteria or frenzy. A newcomer arrives late; someone leaves off praying to bring in an extra chair. Joy and informality, however, co-exist with a hushed sense of expectation.

A young man asks to receive the Holy Spirit. Others surround him, place their hands on his shoulders and pray for him. As the praying intensifies, several persons may be heard speaking a strange incomprehensible language, more a cluster of sounds than any recognizable speech. The praying ceases; the young man Is hugged and welcomed. Shortly after, the meeting disperses, as these Christians return to their homes and businesses for another week.

PRAYER MEETINGS LIKE THIS ARE hosted by several Rochester couples, among them Mr. and Mrs. Domenic Mancini, Mr. and Mrs. Donald Wollschleger, Mr.

and Mrs. Oscar Hauser, Mr. and Mrs. William Buechel Their format is based on Scripture, the account of the First Pentecost, as recorded in the New Testament, Acts of the Apostles On Pentecost, the apostles prayerfully awaited the Holy Spirit, whose coming Christ had promised. When the Spirit came, it filled them with immense spiritual vitality and courage.

They spoke in tongues unknown to them; they had the power to heal the sick. Those Christians involved in the Pentecostal Movement believe that Pentecost is more than an event in the history of the Church. To them Pentecost is still a possibility the gifts of the Spirit can still be poured out on the faithful; Christ's promise "where two or three are gathered together for my sake, there I am in the midst of them" is literally true; prayer can heal both broken bodies and shattered spirits; the phenomenon of tongues still occurs. The content of Pentecostal belief Is not at odds with traditional Christian doctrine, pent-costals remain members of their own denominations, often actively involved in church work. The quality of that belief is different, how.

ever. "We're rediscovering the reality behind the sacraments, ritual and doctrine of the established religions," commented Domenic Mancini, one of the leaders of the Pentecostal Movement in the Rochester area. Mancini, principal of School No. 27 and a Presbyterian, believes, "Organized religion, as good as it is, offers only a crystallization of the religious experiences of earlier Christians." THE MOVEMENT'S GROWTH SEEMS TO be related to the failure of some churches to provide what one Pentecostal termed a "sense of the immediacy of Christ." Mancini described the progress of his own lo-year interest. "I could no longer soe the relevance of my faith," he explained.

"I wanted stability, joy and peace everything I was supposed to have as a Christian. I started searching." "At the same time," he said, "I'm sure many others were going through the same process." Christians looking for "something more" seemed to find one another. They experienced a "growing together in spirit," commented the Rev. Robert Kanka of Ss. Peter and Paul Church, Elmira.

Father Kanka, who meets with an ecumenical prayer group, suggests the Pentecostal Movement has done much to further the development of "deep relationships" between Protestants and Catholics, through "mutual prayer and spirituality." Today the movement has attracted an estimated half million Christians, with about 1,000 in Rochester. THERE MUST BE, PENTECOSTALS maintain, a moment of conversion, a moment of decision. Sometimes conversion is both rapid and dramatic. Mr. and Mrs.

Donald Wollschleger have been Pentecostals for almost five years. Wollschleger, who confessed himself a "pretty indifferent Catholic" had not been attracted to the Movement which had so interested his wife. "But one evening, when my wife was across town at a prayer meeting," Wollschleger recounted, "I suddenly found myself on Please turn page Chuck Mangione 1 I (4- if "fir 4 --r 5 Vl. is. tefalhriirrrt-)J It's Just Too Much Top photo, Julie Mxon Eisenhower greets at White House yesterday.

Opera Tonight Pirates and 50 -Foot FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) A Massachusetts couple who sailed from Hong Kong aboard a Chinese junk 19 months ago told yesterday of a voyage that included an escape from river pirates, 50-foot seas and near death in the Amazon delta. "We think it was the longest trip ever made by a junk, and we're pretty sure it was the first time a junk ever sailed around the Cape of Good Hope," said Jack Roberts, who once ran his own electronics company in Mal-ibu, Calif.

"We crossed the China Sea and the Java Sea as far as Bali, touched islands in the Indian Ocean, went around the Cape of Good Hope, crossed the Atlantic, went up the Amazon River and crossed the Caribbean." Roberts, 44, of Springfield and his wife, Maureen, 38, made the trip alone in their 83-foot, 100-ton teakwood vessel which was equipped with a 40-kilometer radar scanner, computer controlled steering and fishing rods with electric alarms. The piracy episode occurred near the free port of Labuan off the coast of Borneo, Roberts said. He said the couple had been warned of pirates riding huge dugout canoes with outboard engines and armed with .50 caliber machine guns, picked up as American surplus after World War II. "Mostly they attack smugglers, but they have no aversion to attacking anything that's easy pickings. The day before we left Manila we were told about three naval officers who had been killed and robbed of their watches and shoes while sailing," he added.

Roberts said the radar on his junk Intrepid Dragon II dcteched the pirates as they started to follow. He said the junk managed to hide behind a small island, "But I was ready for them wilh a machine gun." The 50-foot seas were encountered near the Cape of Good Hope, he said. "They were spaced out so we could get between them, whereas a tanker would have been broken in half." Their worst experience came, he said, when they started to leave the Amazon and ran into "a terrible gale. "There were huge seas rolling in from the Atlantic against the river's 5-knot current. We almost lost the boat, and it took us about three days to cover what is usually a five-hour trip." MRS.

Fischer Negotiating Organizers of the world chess championship In Rckjavik, Iceland, made considerable progress last night in their negotiations with Bobby Fischer's lawyer over a last minute demand for more money by the American challenger. However, after an hour and a half session with Andrew Davis, Fischer's attorney, officials of the sponsoring Icelandic Chess Federation said they had been given no assurances Fischer would appear for the beginning of the match tomorrow with Russia's Boris Spassky.

Davis, Fischer's confidant as well as legal adviser, arrived in Iceland yesterday on a flight from New York which was to have carried the 29-year-old chess genius to the site of his 24-game match. Fischer had reserved space on the plane and checked his luggage on before he changed his mind. He suddenly called for his bags from the aircraft and disappeared from New York's Kennedy airport after holding up the flight more than two hours From AP. Colorful Wimbledon Whether sunn for opening day, or chilly the next, the large crowds are getting a colorful JIT .3 A tut Film Festival Alive Again By JEAN WALRATH The second Rochester International Film Festival is scheduled Nov. 10 through 19.

Gene De Prez, who was active in promoting the first festival two years ago, will be chairman. Initial funds of $15,000 have been received from the New York State Council on the Arts, De Prez said yesterday. The organizing group will be known officially as the Committee for a Second Festival, Inc. Directors listed by De Prez are: George Darcy, chairman of Hutchins-Darcy, advertising Agency; Thomas Hampson, lawyer; Harris Beach, Mrs. F.

Hawley Ward; Thomas Prioetta of St. John Fisher College staff; Robert Koch, head of the University School, University of Rochester; John Meyers, banker, and Richard Gollin, University of Rochester professor. The chairman said the festival is expected to attract films from around the world, as did the 1970 event, and that the directors expect help in obtaining and selecting films will be given by two men of international prominence who helped direct the first event. They are Peter Cowie, London editor of the International Film and Television Guide, and Murray Grigor, director of the Edinburgh Festival in Scotland. Another, recruit is Gerald Prattley, director of the Canadian Stratford's Ontario Film Festival.

The initial festival attracted wide attention and critical respect, but fell into financial difficulties. De Prez and committee have worked since that festival to resolve the problems, he said. De Prez, who has a master of fine arts degree from Rochester Institute of Technology, was director of communications for the Rochester Museum and Science Center and now has the same job with RIT. 4, Mta.r.
