Russian Wins First Chess Game REYKJAVIK, Iceland (AP) World champion Boris Spassky won the first game today in his world title chess series against American Bobby Fischer. Fischer, in a hopeless position, resigned. He stood up, folded his score sheet and walked out of the Reykjavik sports palace. The decision confirmed the judgment of the experts who considered Fischer was in a difficult position when the game was adjourned after 40 moves last night. The victory gave Spassky a 1-0 lead in the 24-game match and an important psychological advantage.

Fischer never has beaten Spassky. His winless streak against the Russian now stands at six games. Fischer's resignation came after he had staged a walkout, a apparently in objection to movie cameras in the back of the hall. He stormed offstage and did not return for 30 minutes. Then, a while later, Fischer indicated he had given up by reaching over and stopping the clock.

He shook hands with Spassky and, before he left, turned and waved to the crowd. The spectators applauded Spassky. Nixon Asks $1.7 Billion Relief Funds SAN CLEMENTE, Calif.

Keynoter Advocates Coalition for Change MIAMI BEACH, Fla. (AP) -Gov. Reubin Askew has called on Democrats to spearhead a coalition of protest for change in America. "There is indeed a new coalition in this country, a coalition of protest," the Florida governor said last night in the keynote speech to the Democratic National Convention.

"It includes black and white, young and old, North and South, right and left, some of the rich, most of the poor, and millions of overtaxed and over-charged middle-income Americans as well." He found the "face of America" in the newly broadened makeup of the convention delegates, and like the nation, he found differences in the party. The coalition "has the potential to unite Americans and make a difference in this country, but only if it holds together," he said. "Let us remember that this nation was founded on diversity, that our differences can be a source of strength as well as weakness, that a good and open fight can be a vigorous way of searching for the truth, that while no one person or group possesses the absolute truth, every person and every group has something of value to offer." Askew said. time has come, he said, "when we must stop talking about an American dream and start listening to the dreams of Americans. "Americans dream of a day when they're at peace in the world, and at peace with themselves.

They dream of a day when all the fathers and all the sons, in all the prisons and jungles of Asia, not only come home again, but come home to stay. "A day when we spread democracy abroad by making it work in our own country, a day when we place more value on human happiness than the gross national product."
