Fischer To Walk If Cameras Roll Ik Fort Lauderdale Xewn, Thursday, July 13, 12 McGovern Eyes Mail Campaign For $25 Million 1 I -i Richard Stein, a lawyer for the promoter who bought the TV and film rights, Chester Fox, said he was up all night with Fischer's second, the Rev. William and Fred Cramer of the U.S. Chess Federation. Stein said that at one point Fischer walked in on the meeting, listened for a few minutes and then in a few sentences indicated he was adamant about expelling the cameras. Then he went to bed.

In agreement with Lombardy and Cramer, Stein wrote Fischer a letter at 5 o'clock this morning appealing to the -challenger to accept the presence of the cameras and go on playing. "I hope the letter will move him." Stein said. Schmid said he was prepared to invoke two rules of the match against Fischer. MAY INVOKE RULES Rule 17 prohibits in the name of "the highest principles of sportsmanship" that either player "district or annoy his opponent." Rule 21 allows the taking of pictures during the match by official photographers as long as the cameras are "neither visible nor audible." The camera Fischer objected to was officially sanctioned. With a maximum of 23 more games to be played, Robert Byrne, the second-ranking U.S.

grandmaster, said Fischer's loss "isn't necessarily all that significant. Either of these players can come back and win." i A victory yields one point, a draw half a point and after yesterday's match Spassky needed 11 more points in the 24-game series to retain his title. TIM Associated Prest REYKJAVIK, Iceland Bobby Fischer today was reported threatening to break off his world championship chess match with Boris Spassky unless all movie cameras are removed from the playing hall. "It's quite serious. He may not play at all," said a member of Fischer's entourage who asked not to be identified.

Fischer was scheduled to meet the world champion from the Soviet Union later today at 1 p.m. EDT for the second game of their 24-game match. The American challenger lost the first game last night. 30-MINUTE WALKOUT Fischer staged a 30-minute walkout shortly after the play began yesterday, complaining that a movie camera 150 feet away was making him nervous. The camera was hardly visible in the dimness outside the lighted players' circle, and it could not be heard by Fischer, but aides said the knowledge of its presence unnerved him.

Chief referee Lothar Schmid of West Germany, who makes the decisions on all contested points in connection with the match, told Fischer during his walkout there was nothing he could do about the camera. Film and television rights for the match have been sold to an American promoter, and Fischer and Spassky are to get a share of the proceeds, estimated at a minimum of $27,500 each. "It's up to Lothar Schmid whether Bobby plays," one of Fischer's advisers said today. Contacted at his hotel, Schmid said: "There will be a match tonight. If Fischer doesn't appear, he will take the consequences." A member of Fischer's camp said the "legal aspects are being studied." i AF Wirtpholo BOBBY FISCHER PONDERS MOVE before dropping game to Boris Spassky If: i tTHMm.

The plan does not rule out the possibility, according to McGovern's advisers, that big labor and big business eventually will open their pocket-books. McGovern is said to be earnestly trying to close the breach with AFL-CIO President George Meany and other labor leaders who engineered the abortive "Stop McGovern" movement at the convention. But labor has shown little warmth so far for his candidacy, apparently because of his long battle against the Vietnam War and his foreign policy ideas. In addition, there is some fear among Democrats that the traditional fund-raising dinners for the campaign may be intimate affairs this year.

Industry leaders and wealthy Democrats who usually buy huge blocks of tickets may be reluctant because of McGovern's tax reform plans and his call for the redistribution of income from the wealthy to the poor. McGovern is one of the few candidates for national office who has relied on direct mail for the bread-and-butter of his campaign. COSTLY TECHNIQUE The technique had been regarded by most presidential contenders as prohibitively costly, since the rate of return is so low. But McGovern was successful in the preconvention effort because he had a ready-made constituency of war critics and liberals that read his letters and returned cash. The project's success can be traced to Morris Dees, a brilliant 35-year-old lawyer from Montgomery, Ala.

McGovern met Dees by accident during a speaking appearance in Indiana late in 1970 and found out that Dees had been in the mail order business, starting his own company when he was still a college student. He asked Dees for his advice on announcing his candidacy for president in a mass-mailed letter to American citizens. Dees suggested that when he did that, he also stick in an envelope for campaign contributions to pay the cost of the mailing. The two men hit it off, and eventually Dees found himself on McGovern's staff managing the direct mail effort.

British officials said White-law was studying the truce offer "with caution." In the capital's Catholic Old Park Road District, four gunmen burst into the home of Sally McLenaghan, a Catholic widow, shot her in the leg and arm, then shot her son David as he lay in bed sleeping, the Army said. Police said the boy had a mental age of four. HOODED BODY i In the city's Catholic Bally-murphy area police found the hooded body of an unidentified man of about 25 floating in a stream. In Portadown, 25 miles southwest 'of Belfast, Protestant Paul Beattie, 20, yas killed by a sniper. Later two unidentified men were shot dead in a pub in Portadown frequented mainly by Catholics, police said.

A 35-year-old man found early today with gunshot wounds in the chest died later in a hospital. In the period's other fatalities, two British soldiers died early today after they were hit by sniper fire last night in the Catholic Lower Falls area of Belfast, the Army said. Eight soldiers were injured, three seriously, when a landmine blasted their truck near Ready, County Armagh, near the Irish Republic border. fartiyuouay Th AiMClattl Prtu LOD, Israel An Israeli military court today ordered a sanity hearing for Kozo Oka-moto after he admitted full responsibility for the people he killed in the Tel Aviv airport massacre, claimed he is a professional soldier in the Red Army of Japanese radicals and warned that the organization "will slay anyone who stands on the side of the bourgeoisie."

George McGovern is expected to launch soon a bold attempt to raise $2S million by direct mail from rank-and-file Americans to finance his campaign against President Richard Nixon. Facing the prospect that Democratic "fat cats" and labor unions will shut their purses to him, he is making tentative plans for a "McGovern Million Member Club" that will provide the financial underpinnings for his campaign. The idea is to flood the mails with letters to individuals asking for help in his struggle to achieve fundamental change in the U.S. economy and foreign policy. McGovern has used the direct mail technique successfully in his 16-month campaign for the party's nomination, collecting $4.5 million from 160,000 Americans.

The effort, according to his finance officials, paid 75 per cent of the costs of his campaign. But the MMM Club plan will be a far broader and more sophisticated effort for contributions from the man on the street. It will be accompanied by intensive newspaper and broadcast advertising with the double purpose of exposing the senator to the public and asking citizens at the same time to send in their loose change.

He called for "a serious and systematic dialogue on matters of substance" as "the way to make progress here." Tho was in Peking yesterday and held a "very friendly and cordial" conversation with Premier Chou En-lai, Radio Peking reported. The long series of secret talks between Kissinger and Tho have covered a broad range of issues but have not produced any significant change in the conflicting negotiating positions. Washington has always preferred private talks, contending that the Communists used the weekly semipublic sessions only as propaganda platforms. But North Vietnam in the past has refused to participate in secret talks unless the regular weekly sessions were also being held.

Kissinger and Tho last met May 2. Two days later the United States suspended the semipublic talks indefinitely, and the U. S. delegation chief, Porter, told the Communist "we will resume whenever you indicate you are seriously interested in the negotiation of matters of substance; or when we believe discussions would be useful."

If he wants to bolt, I'll go with him." Marler called Wallace "the most influential man in politics today," and said of McGovern, "I don't agree with his socialist views. They are the same views as those of the Communist party."
