Chess match may finally get under way REYKJAVIK, Iceland (AP) American challenger Bobby Fischer and Russian defender Boris Spassky finally begin play this afternoon in the rich- est and most publicized world chess championship of all time unless some new snag devel- ops. Last-minute adjustments were being made on the stage of Reykjavik's sports hall. The playing table was shortened, the green-and-white marble chessboard constructed for the fourth time, and the overhead lighting changed. But these were small details compared to the tangled nego- tiations and war of nerves that preceded the encounter, origi- nally set to start July 2. Spassky, 35, drew the white chessmen and with them the first move.

Fisher, 29, of Brooklyn, N.Y., had the black pieces. One game will be play ed each Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday, starting at p.ir. 1 p.m. EOT. National prestige was at stake for the defending Rus- sian.

The Soviet Union subsi- dizes chess and has dominated the game for decades. Fischer is the first foreigner to make it to the finals since 1948. For Fischer, it is a question of RESORT LISTINGS NEEDED! We have just sold our last resort listing and have no resorts listed.

UNITED FARM AGENCY RAY and DARLEKE SU66ISBERS P.O. BOX 408 BATTLE money and personal prestige, of proving his claim that he Is the best in the world. London oddsmakers rated the lanky American the favorite to win the 24-game, two-month competition and capture more than $180,000 of the estimated $300,000 at stake. The winner gets five-eighths of the $125,000 pu.t up by the Icelandic Chess Federation, or $78,125, plus another $75,000 of the $120,000 provided by London investment banker James Sla- ter to persuade Fischer to end his holdout last week. Organ- izers calculate Fischer and Spassky will divide at least an- other $55,000 from the sale of television and film rights.

Both players stayed in secul- slon. Spassky was reported ner- vous and upset. Fischer, who favors sleeping in the daytime, was last seen at 1 a.m., Monday, when he vis- ited the sports hall. He de- manded that the mahogany playing table be shortened and that the overhead lights be changed. The challenger also agreed with the Russian's complaints that the squares on the chessboard were too large in relation to the size of the pieces.

These additional funds will be used to develop se- verely retarded children to a performance level between toilet scheduled and toilet trained, and to build in the fundamentals of expressive speech. This grant extends the total project, which is due to end on Aug.

31, to six months, To date, the project has re- ceived a total of $17,675 in Title I project monies. The initial project, which began in February, was developed after an assessment of the total population of children at the Center showed that a large number of the children were not receiving strong enough training in spe- cific self help skills and speech areas. The extended project will give these children 63 more Daily Journal A July 11, 1972 IU instructional days in addition to their regular school program at the Center, thereby bringing the total for the project to 280 instructional days. Dennis Lokken and Larry Barber, recent graduates of Moorhead State College in spe- cial education, have been temporarily added to the pre- sent project staff which is made up of Ken Kjos who is the pro- ject supervisor and two teacher-aides, John Woodwiek and Jackie Templin. The title I project will be carried out at the Youth Achievement Center jointly with their staff.

A three day workshop, of- fering 30 hours of in service training to staff on behavior modification and progress charting in the areas of speech and toilet training, has been planned for July 19-21. This workshop will be conducted by Dan Fazzini, Ph. research associate; and Stephen Jones, Ph. behavioral Evaluator; from the Mental Retardation Center at the University of Wis- Madison. POLITICIAN PLIES HIS TRADE- Sen.

George McGovera finds time during last minute cam- paigning for delegate votes in Miami Beach to greet one-year-old Rosanne Gioia of Queens, N.Y. The South Dakota candidate for the presidential nomination encountered Rosanne while enroute to a caucus of the Michigan delegation. (AP Wirephoto) South Dakofans jubilant over credentials voting MIAMI BEACH, Fla. (AP) South Dakotans at the Demo- cratic National Convention were jubilant Tuesday after a successful fight to seat 151 dis- puted California delegates. The action restored to South Dakota Sen.

George McGovern delegates he won in California's "winner-take-all" primary, but which were aportioned among other primary candidates by the party Credentials Com- mittee. The South Dakota delegation saw the successful effort as vir- tual assurance that McGovern would not be denied the presi- dential nomination on the first ballot Wednesday. The delegation was on its feet waiving and cheering after the challenge was upheld and after an appeal of the procedure by which the first vote was taken was rejected. "They won't mess with him now. They've run out of steam," said delegate James Guffey of Hayti, referring to anti-McGovern forces.

Supporters of Minnesota Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey and Maine Sen. Edmund S. Mu'skie and other candidates had ob- jected to the winner-take-all rule in California, contending it left without representation the 56 per cent of the voters in Cal- ifornia who cast ballots for can- didates other than McGovern.

The Credentials Committee agreed with this reasoning, and although McGovern supporters appealed in the courts, the Su- preme Court left the matter for the full convention to decide. Needing 1,437 votes for a ma- jority on the seating question, McGovern strategists had told the South Dakota delegation they expected a slim margin of victory. The final total of 1,618 was a pleasant surprise. Only 1,509 votes are needed for nomi- nation, and the 151-member disputed California delegation, who now almost certainly will side with McGovern, could not vote on the question of their own seating. "There's no question about it now.

"There's absolutely no question about it," said Rep. James Abourezk, a member of the delegation. "That's more power than we dreamed we had." Another delegate, Larry Piersol of Sioux Falls, said he thought anti-McGovern forces might try to throw up a few more roadblocks, but said he was confident McGovern had the nomination "wrapped up." The 17-member delegation was complete for balloting late Monday and early Tuesday fol- lowing the arrival of Sol Bird Mockicin of Pierre. Mockicin had not been present when the delegation gathered to caucus early Mon- day and an alternate had been picked. In roll call votes during the convention's first session, the South Dakota group voted 17-0 to support a group seeking to increase the number of women on the South Carolina delega- tion, but the effort failed.

South Dakota also voted unanimously to support the unsuccessful ef- fort of a group led by Chicago Mayor Richard Daley for equal representation with another group on the Illinois delegation.
