"If the Russians insist on this penalty I believe the whole match is off," said Dr. Max Euwe, president of the International Chess Federation Fischer and Spassky in which they agreed that a player who does not turn up within one hour of the game forfeits the game. Euwe said the telegram arrived shortly after Fischer apologized for being late. Fischer has kept in seclusion since he arrived in Reykjavik early yesterday. The Russian decision to break off the talks earlier in the day threw serious doubts on the possibility the match would be played.

"This is a very bad develop- The match was scheduled to start last Sunday and has twice been postponed once while Fischer bargained for more prize money and once after Spassky demanded that FIDE censor Fischer. The demand from the Russian chess federation followed soon after representatives of Spassky said they had broken off talks with Fischer's representatives. The Soviet demand came in "a telegram to Euwe and cited one paragraph of the agreement to play signed by both ment and I am now very pessimistic about the Euwe said. The reason for the breakup was not immediately disclosed but representatives of Spassky, the reigning world chess champion, said they would explain later at a news conference. "The Russians said today they don't want any further talks with the Americans," Euwe said.

The broadcast did not locate any of the points. In South Vietnam, the U.S. Command said, two U.S. Marine Phantoms accidentally attacked South Vietnamese marines five miles southeast of Quang Tri City, killing 11 of them and wounding 30.

Spokesmen said the mistaken attack is under investigation. Three clashes were reported at points ranging from 2Vi miles southeast of Quang Tri to 4Vi miles to the east of the city, which fell to the North Vietnamese May 1. The Saigon command claimed 128 North Vietnamese killed and two tanks destroyed. It said South Vietnamese losses were nine men killed and 18 wounded. There was more fighting to the rear of the offensive.

Spokesmen said North Vietnamese forces shelled and assaulted South Vietnamese positions about 10 miles southwest of Hue but was driven back with air and artillery strikes.

During the last two weeks, the U.S. Command has reported nine planes lost over North Vietnam and 16 fliers missing, raising the toll since the resumption of full-scale bombing on April 6 to 54 aircraft downed and 61 airmen missing. Radio Hanoi has said that many of the pilots have been captured and last week broadcast messages from 14 if them.

THIRD TARGET A third flight of F4 fighter-bombers destroyed a large repair shop and damaged another repair shop and a vehicle storage building at the Hanoi vehicle repair facility three miles southeast of the center of the city, the command said.
