Chess boards in the 12th and 13th centuries were often the center of treachery, revenge, intrigue and murder, according to sagas of the time. Games were often interrupted because somebody was getting hacked to pieces. When a certain King Louis lost a chess game to Rogn-vald. he stood up in a fury, shoved his chessmen into a bag and smashed his opponent in the face with it. leaving him a bloody mess.

"Take that!" exclaimed the king. Rognvald rode off in a panic. But his brother stayed to split the king's skull open. These stories are sagas from Willard Fiske's "Chess in Iceland and in Icelandic Literature." published in 1905. It is said that American chess champion Bobby Fischer has gotten the highest stakes in history of chess for his series beginning Tuesday in Reykjavik with Boris Spas-sky, the world champion.

Even though thousands of dollars of prize money are on The U.S. Small Business Administration today announced it would cut red tape to speed up loan aid to recent flood victims and has set up an office to receive applications in Rockland County. The SBA will no longer require a contractor's estimate with an application. An insurance report will be sufficient. Thomas Kleppe.

SBA administrator, said: "This disaster is so big that local contractors generally are being swamped by requests for cost estimates which SBA in the past has required before it will accept a loan application." "Consequently," he said, "we are eliminating this red tape from our procedures. Effective immediately we will accept a flood victim's loan application without a contractor's estimate." Kleppe said the change was possible because of an agreement concluded by the SBA with the General Adjustment Bureau.

Los Vegos, 707 guard raised SAN CLEMENTE. Calif. (API President Nixon, in a crackdown on air piracy, has ordered the Federal Aviation Administration to implement tougher antihijacking measures including passenger inspection when necessary on commuter airlines. John D. Ehrlichman.

Nixon's assistant for domestic policy, announced at a news conference Friday in nearby Newport Beach that the President ordered FAA Administrator John Shaffer to assure 100 per cent inspection in some form for all commuter passengers. Previous government regulations requred a 10 per cent screening ratio. Ehrlichman said. Nixon acted after two Pacific Southwest Airlines planes, which carry air commuters in California, were hijacked in two days. "The President has followed news of the recent hijackings." and has been very concerned, particularly about commuter airlines," the aide said.

"These include such airlines as Pacific Southwest Airlines of California and the East Coast shuttle runs between Boston and New York. "No preventative measure is completely effective, but the measures would make it clear that our preventive efforts are substantially enchanced." An FAA spokesman in Washington said the new rules applying to shuttle flights require that all passengers must show two pieces of identification and that all carry-on luggage will be searched. In addition, the spokesman added, body searches will be instituted when it appears warranted or justified. Sources indicated each piece of baggage or each purse might not be physically searched. But they said that the airline would continue to rely heavily on metal detection devices which, if they record a warning signal, could lead to searches.

Ehrlichman also said other measures were being considered specifically whether the death penalty can continue to be applied in hijacking cases. The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled out death as the penalty for most if not all crimes. 171 taken in robbery A Garnerville man was robbed of $171 by five armed men as he walked along Route 9W in Stony Point Friday night. Henry Cellars, 41, of 75 Wall Garnerville, told police he was walking along the highway about 10:55 p.m.

when a car stopped. The five men, armed with knives, got out and demanded his wallet, which contrained the $171 in $10 and $20 bills. The car was a Pontiac, the man told police, but he was not able to get a license plate number because the car had no plate on the front and the light illuminating the rear one was burned out. Police said they are conducting a continuing investigation of the tion serving the insurance industry. Under terms of the agreement.

SBA will obtain a damage appraisal report from GAB on each loan application in Pennsylvania and New York which will include an estimate of the replacement cost of the property lost or damaged in the flood. Utilization of the GAB reports in the two states will free permanent and temporary SBA staff to provide the same service to the other flood-stricken states, according to the administrator. "We will have a professional report upon which we can make a decision on the loan and we will have it within a week." Kleppe said. Once the' report is made to SBA. the agency can precede with the loan request.

A special SBA office is open from 8:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. each weekday and from 8 30 a m. to 5 p.m. Saturdays at the Rockland County Office Building.

Cuban protest urged MIAMI. Fla. (AP) Despite spirited opposition from within their own ranks, top leaders of Miami's Cuban exile colony of 300.000 have called for "a massive demonstration" Tuesday at the Democratic National Convention. Carlos Prio Socarras. former Cuban president and the demonstration's chief organizer, said Friday that he expects up to 3.000 refugees to march "peaceably and with good intentions" outside the Miami Beach Convention Hall.

"We are not protesting against anyone," Prio said, "only against the idea that Cubans in this country have no right to do anything to overthrow Fidel Castro." Prio heads a coalition group which includes Bay of Pigs veterans, his own Cuban Revolutionary Party, students and others. Opposed to the idea of demonstrations, but planning to stage their own minicampaign of "information and accusation." is another coalition refugee group calling itself the Committee for Liberation. Tomas Cruz, a Bay of Pigs veteran and a leader of the Liberation Committee, said members will pass out handbills to convention delegates about the "forgotten moral and written commitments" the United States has made with respect to Cuba. Among these, Cruz said, are "promises by Democratic Presidents John Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson to rid Cuba of its Communist regime." Cruz said the demonstration planned by the Prio organization may damage the nonviolent image of Cuban refugees and put the participants on a collision course with protest groups such as the Yippies and Zippies.

Prio said he doubts that this will happen but says. "It's a chance we have to take to make our case known to American public opinion." 1 New 1st qtr.
