Anyway, there's not much to say. He comes home and sticks his nose in a chess book, stops to eat, and he's back again until it's time to go to bed. "Bobby's one of the ones who play for blood as they say in chess. He's serious. He, has to study all the time.

How would you like it if he were a genius? "It's not easy," says Mrs. Regina Fischer of Brooklyn. Her 15-year-old son, Bobby, is a genius at chess.

He won the United States championship at 14 and became the youngest international Grand Master in history this summer.

"I was really worried. I knew he was loaded down with books and I didn't see how he could manage. He doesn't speak the languages.

I could just see him sleeping in a train station somewhere and people stealing everything he had." But Bobby used his tournament prize money to get to Munich where he found plane space home. Chess is not a popular game and there are no funds to send the American champion to tournaments. Bobby won two tickets to Yugoslavia on a television program.

It is a noble tribute to the hardiness of Hoosier pioneers that they survived not only their illnesses but their cures. W.

Edson Richmond and Elva Van Winkle, two Indiana University staff members, went searching for remedies that were a part of Indiana life 100 years ago. Here's the list they compiled: If somebody with blue gums bites you, rub the bite with some black hen litter, and the biter will lose his teeth. For a cut, bind on a poultice cf fresh cow manure. Asthma Drink a tea made by boiling a hornets' nest. Head cold Take nine whiffs from a dirty sock.
