Against Weapons New Air Security Measures Asked WASHINGTON (API The Federal Aviation Administration has asked the airlines (or new measures to prevent weapons from being brought aboard airplanes in carry-on And several airlines have taken some steps to do so. Citing the alarming number of hijackings carried out with arms or explosives concealed in hand-carried luggage, FAA Administrator John H. Shaffer asked the airlines to consider a "voluntary program to bring about a very significant reduction in such baggage." "If a passenger insists on carrying baggage into the cabin, it should be searched," Shaffer said in a letter to Stuart G. Tipton, president of the Air Transport Association. "In order to insure the integrity of a search, the carry-on baggage should be sealed and the unbroken seal shown to the cabin attendant during the boarding process." Shaffer added that if the airlines feature baggage stowage in the passenger cabin, the stowage bins might be locked at the point of departure, and the keys to the bins left on the ground at that station.

Thus the bins could be un- lockedTjrfly by the ground service agent at the point of arrival. "We fully realize the inconvenience to the passenger, from facilitativc and work-habit aspects, in carrying material into the cabin," Shaffer said. "However, we further realize that carry-on baggage has been a very prominent aid to the hijacker and criminal ex- torionist." Shaffer said that from July 1, 1969, through June 2, 1972, there were 95 hijackings, of which 15 occurred under circumstances not related to pre- boarding screening. Of the 80 remaining instances, 28 have been definitely identified as resulting from weapons brought aboard in, or alleged to have been contained in, carry-on baggage. An airline industry official who declined use of his name said quick action to restrict carry-on baggage could be expected soon.

United Air Lines, the nation's largest carrier, said Thursday it would employ personnel to inspect luggage by persons boarding its 727 flights and continue its policy of making spot checks of passengers boarding its other flights. American said it is inspecting all baggage at boarding gates for 727 flights and broadening hand-luggage inspection on other nights.

In this manner, the sources say, the government forces hope to wear down the city's defenders without becoming bogged down or trapped in bloody, high-casualty street fighting against well-entrenched enemy troops. Far to the rear of the task force, North Vietnamese gunners fired between five and 10 rounds of 122mm artillery into Hue hitting south of the Perfume River for the first time in nearly two weeks of almost daily shcllings.

Two of the shells landed near an American advisers' compound, but no U. S. casualties were reported.

Fischer Appeal Rejected REYKJAVIK, Iceland (AP)Bobby Fischer charged Friday that tournament organizers seemed to "upset and provoke me" deliberately, but an appeals committee rejected his request to replay the chess game he forfeited to Boris Spassky, The world champion from the Soviet Union was awarded Thursday's second game in the championship match when Fischer refused to appear, staying in his hotel suite, because he objected to three moving picture cameras in the hall. Thus Spassky, who won the first game, was 2-0 in the 24- game series. He needs 10 more points to retain the title.

A victory counts one point and a draw half a point. Fischer said that if the forfeit ruling were, reversed and ail cameras were removed, he would go ahead with the match. This demand came despite the fact the movie and television rights allowed the Icelandic Chess Federation to offer a record $125,000 purse for both players. Gumundur Thorarinsson, president of the Icelandic federation, said the cameras would be removed, but that Spassky's game point would stay. That still left the future of the championship in doubt.

Thorarinsson said that if the match was stopped by Fischer's disqualification, the organizers would nol pay the loser's share. This meant that Fischer could not only lose his chances at the title but a great sum of money. As the loser he would be entitled to $46,875 from the chess federation, $45,000 from a purse of about $120.000 offered bv British financier James Slater, and $27,500 from television and movie rights. In a seven-page letter to Lothar Schmid, the chief referee, the American said he was told the cameras would be silent and invisible but "nothing could have been farther from the facts." He previously had told Schmid that although he could not see or hear the cameras, the knowledge that they were there made him nervous. Andrew Davis.

Fischer's lawyer who arrived in the morning from New York, appeared upset by the ruling. Asked if Fischer would appear for the third game Sunday, he replied: "I can't comment On' that.

The Valiant, Galveston based cutter, and the only "white boat" in the port, was on patrol station southeast of Newfoundland in the grand banks area. She sailed from Galveston on May 15 and returned on July 4 after stopping off for rest and replinishment at St. John's Newfoundland, and Nassau, Bahamas. The Valiant broadcast daily ice bulletins to warn shipping of dangerous ice in the grand banks area, made daily radar searches for icebergs out of visual range, and did oceanographic work. Completion of the ice patrol ended a busy year for the cutler Valiant.
