Bobby Fischer, America's hope for the world chess championship, rushed into the vast, brightly lit dining room at Grossinger's, a giant resort tucked away in the Catskills. At age 29, he's poised Gov. Wendell Anderson appointed Thomas G. Fors-berg, 45, Coon Rapids, to succeed Anoka District Court Judge Leonard Keyes 73, who will retire April 20 after 38 years on the district bench.

He challenges Russian Boris Spaasky for the title in a grueling 24-game match, beginning June 22, in Belgrade, Yugoslavia. The international chess world has shown extraordinary interest in this match. Seven countries bid for it. Usually, there are only two or three bfds. Prize money for the match is set at $138,500,, with 72 percent to the winner.

Fischer beat Tigran Pe-trosian, Russian ex-world champion, in the semifinals. If he beats Spaasky he will become the first non-Russian to hold the world title in 25 years and the first of ficial American title holder. This is it. This is the big one for a man who's grown up obsessed with the complex moves of 32 chessmen around a checkered board. Fischer usually dines alone in Grossinger's banquet hall.

"The whole theory of a hotel is a giant communal enterprise. But Bobby remains a solitary figure," says a hotel representative. Solitude can be hard to find in this active, noisy hotel. When Fischer is more relaxed, he's good company quick, funny and interested in other people. But this weekend, he wasn't giving interviews.

He mostly stays in his room, saying in a soft voice, "I gotta study. I gotta study." Many hotel employees see him as a loner withdrawn, nontalkative, absorbed in his work, but still polite. He asked the maitre d'hotel how much he Frances Brownell had been in the habit of overeating ever since fourth grade. But when she reached 220 pounds, she was sure she'd given her husband more than he'd bargained for. So she decided to try the reduc-ing-plan candy, Ayds.

Not that she hadn't tried to reduce before. She had taken diet pills for two years while she was in college. Sure, her weight came down. Then she'd quit, and the pounds would go up again. If she hadn't met and married Larry, she might still be at it.

But when he moved in, the pills went out. She also got a job with a newspaper. And you'll never guess what her assignment was. Writing a column on cooking! Now she had to have food on her mind and in her mouth constantly. Then they moved to Montrose, Colorado, and she gave up her job to have a family.

So she spent her spare time working on potato chips, popcorn, peanut butter and french fries. But when she reached 220 pounds, the figure on the scale scared her. So did the one in the mirror. Fortunately, soon after that she read about Ayds and decided to buy a box. It contains no drugs, no artificial sweeteners.

When you take Ayds as directed, it helps curb your appetite. On the Ayds Plan, you eat Jess because you want less, so you lose weight.

I have quit asking mm to do chores around the house because he is always smashing his fingers with a hammer, cutting himself, or falling off the ladder while changing the screens or storm windows.

HIS WIFE DEAR WIFE: People who have more than their share of "accidents" could be unconsciously punishing themselves for unresolved guilt. And they need not be "crazy" to do so. I think the plant doctor planted a very sound suggestion in your husband's mind. DEAR ABBY: I just read the letter in your column about the husband who completely avoids sex. I was glad to learn I wasn't the only person in the world who feels this way about sex.

I am a married woman, and thank heavens my husband isn't the type of man who makes unpleasant demands on me. In almost every article I have ever read about failing marriages, they say the main reason is that one of the partners is "sexually inadequate" whatever that means. What most people can't understand is that some people just don't care for sex that much. I personally find the very thought of it sickening. It is really more trouble than it's worth.

I am not an unloving person, Abby. I just happen to feel that love can be expressed in other ways. Besides, there are too many people in the world already. Believe me, we have a better marriage than most people I know. And my husband really understands me.

HAPPY WITHOUT SEX DEAR HAPPY: If you are happy, and your husband is happy, then I am happy. DEAR ABBY: I'm going with a swell guy and I like him a lot. He is very kind and considerate. He's polite, too, helping me with my chair and holding doors open for me. You could say he was a perfect gentleman except when he eats; and Abby, he eats just like a hog.

I am so ashamed to eat with him. He slurps his soup and smacks his lips. He locks his little finder over his fork and holds his knife in a tightfist grasp. He eats very quickly and practically shovels his food in. How can I correct him without hurling his feelings? Or worse yet, scaring him off.

I don't want to lose him. CHICKEN DEAR CHICKEN: When you and he are alone together (and ideally, eating) start by suggesting that he eat a little more slowly. Then suggest that he eat a little more quietly. Next, very diplomatically show him hqw to hold his knife and fork. If you correct him gently, and in the spirit of kindness he will be neither hurt nor scared off.

CONFIDENTIAL TO MY READERS: Next Sunday Easter. Please do not give a child who is too young tu care for it properly a living gift. Every year a shocking number of baby chicks, rabbits, kittens and puppies have been mauled, handled, smothered and neglected to death by children who received them as Easter gifts and regard them as "toys." Have a heart, and give small children stuffed animals instead. For a personal reply, send a self-addressed tamped envelope to Ahby in care of The Minneapolis Star. Jr WAR DATED A.
