KTHmmMjj SPAC'K CENTER, Houston (UPI) The Sp-ice Agency yesterday reprimanded the Apollo 15 astronauts for "poor judgment" in trying to sell moon mail for a trust fund set up for their families. The reprimand for the three astronauts was described by a spokesman as "damaging." He said he didn't "think they will fly again." One astronaut, James B.

These were the envelopes later received by Herman Seiger, the West German stamp dealer who sold 99 of them for $150,000. The dealer said they are worth more and wants to buy them back. At the Pentagon, a spokesman said the Air Force, which awarded all three Apollo 15 astronauts Distinguished Service Medals after their mission, "does not contemplate any action against those guys." THE ASTRONAUTS took an unauthorized batch of 400 envelopes on the July 1971 mission in which Scott and Irwin landed on the moon. The envelopes, signed and stamped, were in addition to 232 approved for the flight. Bob Gordon, a National Aeronautics and Space Administration spokesman, said a West German stamp dealer received 100 envelopes, retained one and sold the rest for $150,000.

But before any money changed hands, Gordon said, the astronauts realized the sale was improper and they turned down any proceeds. The remaining envelopes were confiscated by NASA.

Play resumes this afternoon. Most experts assembled here seemed to agree that Spassky has a chance to win, while Fischer should be happy if he salvages a draw.
