Chess boards in the 12th and 13th centuries were often the center of treachery, revenge, intrigue and murder, according to sagas of the time. Woman Dies On Turnpike SOMERSET, Pa. (AP)-An 82-year-old woman has been killed and two other persons seriously injured when their car slammed into the rear of a milk tank truck on the Pennsylvania Turnpike near here, state police said.

CARS STRUCK A car operated by Nathaniel Warner of Confluence H.D. 1 struck two parked cars about five miles north of Ohiopyie at 1:15 a.m. today, according to State Police. Owners of the two parked vehicles were Frank Milliron of Ohiopyie and Anna Grace Milliron of Confluence. When a certain King Louis lost a chess game to Rognvald, he stood up in a fury, shoved his chessmen into a bag and smashed his opponent in the face with it, leaving him a bloody mess.

"Take lhat!" exclaimed the king. Rognvald rode off in a panic. But his brother stayed to split the king's skull open. These stories are sagas from Willard Fiske's "Chess in Iceland and in Icelandic Literature," published in 1905. It is said that American chess champion Bobby Fischer has gotten the highest stakes in history of chess for his series beginning Tuesday In Reykjavik with Boris Spassky, the world champion.

Even though thousands of dollars of prize money are on Ihe line, today's championship prize is chicken feed. Rognvald played King Louis for his head. A woman was the prize in one knightly saga. A king put up his horse, falcon and sword for a maiden and engaged in a game, winner fake all. The king lost, He left (he game on fool, unarmed and unloved.

"Little consolation do you derive from the game of chess for now I own your costly objects!" said his competitor. IJUSY MORNING McClellanrilown firemen had a busy morning.

CAP) President Nixon, in a crackdown on air piracy, has ordered the Federal Aviation Administration to implement tougher antihijacking measures including passenger inspection when necessary on commuter airlines. John D.

Ehrlichman, Nixon's assistant for domestic policy, announced at a news conference Friday in nearby Newport Beach ihal the President ordered FAA Administrator John Shaffer to assure 100 per cenl inspection in some form for all commuter passengers. Previous government regulations re- qured a 10 per cent screening ratio, Ehrlichman said. Nixon acted after two Pacific Southwest Airlines planes, which carry air commuters in California, were hijacked in two days. "The President has followed news of the recent hijackings," and has been very concerned, particularly about commuter airlines," the aide said. "These include such airlines as Pacific Southwest Airlines of California and the East Coast shuttle runs between Boston and New York.

An FAA spokesman in Wash- ington said the new rules applying to shuttle flights require that all passenger, 1 must show two pieces of identification and lhat all carry-on luggage will be searched. In addition, the spokesman added, body searches will be instituted when it appears warranted or justified. Sources indicated each piece of baggage or each purse might not be physically searched. But they said that the airline would continue to rely heavily on metal detection devices which, if they record a warning signal, could lead lo searches. On Friday morning, Nixon held a lengthy review of the meat price situation at the Western White House here with Secretary of the Treasury George Shultz and other officials.

Shultz told reporters Ihal Nixon will ease meat quotas next year for countries that export (he most beef to the United Slates during the current period of short meat suppljes.

Noting that current Price Commisision guidelines would permit a hike of $200 per vehicle, GM indicated that it also would ask for another increase Jan. 1.

GM's action followed similar requests by American Motors, which asked for a $78 per car jump for safely and emission control hardware, plus another 2.5 per cent general increase; and Chrysler which earlier this week sought $182 per vehicle, a 5 per cent jump divided among government-mandated equipment, labor and material increases and current optional equipment to be made standard.

Among likely targets for state takeovers the document listed ports, Pharmaceuticals, financial institutions, shipbuilding, parts of the aircraft industry, minerals, develop- men land, the oil and gas resources of the North Sea, even automobile and other insurance concerns.

"We aim to bring ab.out a society based on cooperation instead of competition," the policy statement said. "Where production is for people's needs, not for private profit, where community care is available to all and where personal relationships are based on equality and international rela- tio ships of mutual respect."
