PAGE 4 A I I I THURSDAY, JULY 13, 1972 Man of steel Citizen photo by Manuel Miara Two years ago, University of Arizona art professor Donald Haskin began'tbis steel behemoth, and yesterday he was hard at work installing it in front of the UA Student Union. The sculpture stands more than 15 feet tall and is covered with a stainless steel skin. The work, momentarily, is nameless. Sleeping, says aide Fischer forfeits 2nd same REYKJAVIK, Iceland (UPI) Bobby Fischer forfeited the second game of Ms world championship chess match with Russian Boris Spassky today. Mscher failed to show up for the game and an aide said he was asleep.

The forfeit give Spassky a 2-0 lead in the match. He needs only 12 points to retain Ms title, while Fischer needs to win. The next scheduled game is Sunday. Spassky arrived about two minutes before the scheduled starting time and walked slowly around the stage with referee Lothar Schmid, waiting for Fischer. Fischer boycotted today's game in protest against the use of closed-circuit television to give spectators a better view of the play.

Organizers said earlier they would remove one of the cameras if Fischer would play. One U.S. chess source said Fischer was unlikely to change his mind. "You can talk to Fischer when he is winning but not when he has lost," the source said, Fischer lost the first game to Spassky, putting him one point behind the Russian. A forfeit today would put him two points behind.

Schmid also demanded a personal apology from Fischer. The arbiter said Fischer Bobby Fischer called him a liar when Schmid went backstage yesterday to fey to talk Fischer into returning to the game. The 29-year-old American walked out last night because two tiny TV cameras were hidden above the stage and used for the closed-circuit TV in the hall. WORLD CHESS CHAMPIONSHIP nseiEi Fischer's losing move Fred Cramer, a vice president of the U.S. Chess Federation and acting on behalf of Fischer, said negotiations were under way with Richard C.

Stein, a lawyer from Chester Fox the U.S. company which owns the TV and film for the match. "There is no solution yet, but as long as we talk there is a chance," Cramer said. Schmid said the Amsterdam agreement between Spassky and Fischer allows TV coverage of the match and if Fischer to play because of the presence of the cameras this would be a breach of the agreement. Fischer never signed, the agreement but he sent a cable through the U.S.

chess-group accepting it "under protest." Officials said they considered the cable legally binding. Although he went Mo the much-postponed first game a heavy favorite, Fischer made what appeared to be a beginner's error and went down to defeat at the hands of the 35- year-old Soviet world champions. The moment of truth was painful. Fischer rose from the massive mahogany chess table, made a helpless gesture and resigned at the 56th move. Before stomping out of the hall, he reached over to shake Spassky's hand.

Fischer obviously was upset. But Cramer, who is a member of the American's camp, said, "He is a pro and this is part of the game. I believe he has got enough to come back in the match. After all, there are 23 possible games left." Fischer locked himself into his hotel suite with his second, Father William Lombardy, a Catholic priest who is a grandmaster, to analyze the lost game and prepare for today's encounter. The challenger lost the first game at the 29th move when in taking one of Spassky's pawns he allowed his bishop to be trapped.

By doing this he in effect exchanged one bishop for two pawns an action which favored the champion. Although fischer made a desperate attempt to turn the game into a draw, it, became obvious that Spassky could not be kept from promoting to pawn to a queen, thus making an eventual checkmate a certainty. Fly 340 sorties bombers raid Red supply depots Four students irom lueson Low-income Tucsonians given consumer tips to go abroad C' Tho Pnmmitttwi TTnnnnmip nnnm-himtv Tnp is; SAIGON (AP) American fighter-bombers hit North Vietnam yesterday with the heaviest raids in more than a week, setting fire to fuel depots and supply and port facilities in the Hanoi-Haiphong area, the U.S. Command announced today. The command reported 340 strikes were flown, equaling the number on July 5, and said the closest to Haiphong was within a mile of the city.

It made no mention of any plane "Navy pilots flying from the Kitty Hawk. swept to within 1 mile of Haiphong, where they reported three supply warehouses heavily damaged after a strike on the Haiphong vehicle repair facility south of that city," the 7th Fleet said in a communique. In another big raid, Air Force F4 Phantoms using both laser-guided and general- purpose bombs attacked a fuel depot 35 miles northeast of Hanoi. Pilots reported many direct hits, numerous secondary explosions and fires, and a pipeline cut. On the ground, the man South Vietnamese push into Quang Tri Province remained stalled for the seventh successive day by tough North Vietnamese resistance that triggered a series of battles on three sides of the provincial capital.

The Saigon command claimed more than 200 North Vietnamese troops were killed and 26 tanks destroyed and one captured in fighting yesterday and today around the city. The command said South Vietnamese losses were 46 troops killed and 72 wounded. A senior. U.S. military source said South Vietnamese paratroopers are in Quang Tri City in "substantial numbers" but estimated it would take at least four or five more days to retake the embattled northernmost provincial capital.

The source would'not elaborate. Spokesmen for the South Vietnamese command in Saigon repeated, however, that there were no sizable units inside the city although government forces were on the northern, eastern and southern outskirts. The recurring contradictions Costs low for retirees in Phoenix PHOENIX (AP) Phoenix remains one of the least expensive cities in the nation for retired couples, Arizona State University reported yesterday in its annual family budget cost study. On the average, it cost retired couples $4,774 to Jive in the Phoenix area last year, compared with a national average of $4,990. Costs rose in Maricopa County 4.6 per cent compared with a national rise of 6.7 per cent between 1970 and 1971.

Housing and medical aid xvere the major reasons for the $210 increase in the average budget. Phoenix was the seventh lowest cost city for retired couples among the 24 metropolitan areas surveyed for urban families of two retired persons with a level of living described as "intermediate but adequate." That fellow in chimney ain't Santa BOSTON (UPI) Chester Robinson, a bartender, heard muffled cries early yesterday and went to look for their source. He traced them to a chimney at Paul's Foodland, next door to the bar. "In here, man, in the chimney. Get me out of here," a voice called.

Robinson called the police. The police called the fire department which partially dismantled the chimney and poured salad oil over the trapped man to make it easier to ease him out. The man, Robert Flower of Roxbury, was freed after seven hours. He was not injured. Police arrested him on suspicion of burglary.

appear to stem from different city limits being used on maps and various interpretations of them. North Vietnam charged that "many waves" of U.S. planes attacked areas inside and outside Haiphong, that dozens of persons were killed and nearly 200 houses destroyed. Hanoi said an American RF4 reconnaissance plane was shot down. The U.S.

Command as usual refused to comment on the North Vietnamese charges. Navy pilots from the carrier Hancock reported wrecking 12 buildings in strikes against the Van Dong storage area 20 miles northeast of Haiphong. Other attack planes set afire the Yen Cu and Hon Gai fuel depots 13 and 21 miles east and northeast of Haiphong, the Navy said. Three buildings were damaged at an island supply base 35 miles east of Haiphong and two buildings and other equipment were destroyed or damaged at the Hon Gai port facility, the 7th Fleet said. Pilots from the Hancock also reported seven railroad boxcars damaged in a raid near Hanoi.

The Navy said in a delayed report that the destroyers Robinson and Hamner sank one barge and damaged two others after they had unloaded war materials from a freighter Tuesday northwest of the port of Dong Hoi near Hon La Island. The Navy did not identify the freighter, but presumably it was Chinese. It was not attacked. North Vietnamese gunners fired more than 30 artillery shells into Hue, 32.miles south, but about a third of them were duds that did not explode. There was no immediate report of casualties.
