PAGE FOURTEEN A Mansfield, 0., News Journal Sunday, July 9, 1972 Survey Reveals Doctors 'Ripe' For Organizing WOODSTOCK REVISITED Tens of thousands of rock some of those attending. "There are at least 200,000 people fans jammed into Pocono Raceway at Long Pond, Sat- here," said a state police lieutenant. Promoters who origi-urday to attend a concert being likened to Woodstock by nally planned only a one day concert, said the festival could last over the weekend. (AP Photo) Chess Match Still Hanging NEW YORK (AP) Perhaps more than half of America's doctors would go on strike as members of physicians' guilds or unions, although few would close down hospitals or clinics totally, according to a survey conducted by a magazine for doctors. The magazine Medical Opinion said Saturday its survey detected "a real and unexpectedly militant mood for some form of physicians' guild or union" in the face of impending changes in medical practice such as a national health insurance program.

"A significant number of American doctors perhaps more than half would strike if collective bargaining broke down and their organizations ordered it," the magazine said. The results are based on 752 replies to 3,000 questionnaires sent to selected doctors. The magazine claimed the replies are a "balanced representation" of doctors of medicine and osteopathy. Forty-eight per cent said some type of doctors' union or guild is inevitable. Xt Schmid, a West German grandmaster and the owner of a book publishing firm in Bamberg, flew home Saturday morning and said he would return Thursday.

He said he was leaving because one of his sons had been injured in a traffic accident. REYKJAVIK, Iceland (UPI) The Boris Spassky Bobby Fischer world chess championship match, already delayed for nine days, ran into new problems Saturday when the chief arbiter left Iceland. U.S. chess sources said Fischer, the 29 year old American challenger, is "at peak form and raring to into the first game Tuesday against the world champion, Russia's Spassky. But the sources said there might have to be another postponement until Thursday since chief arbiter Lothar Schmid will not be back in town until then.

Sunday to check on the facilities and hopefully approve them. But this meeting was called off Saturday after Schmid left. Spassky also left town and went north with Icelandic friend and chess player, Freysteinn Thorbergsson, on a salmon fishing trip. Russian officials said Spassky would be back Monday, at the latest. Thorbergsson also invited Fischer along, but the American turned down the invitation to observe his Church of God's Sabbath from Friday night until Saturday night.

CT: Mansfield Attorneys Like 4No Fault' Divorce Idea, but Judge Has Doubts 4 1, 1 Schmid's assistant arbiter, Gudmun-dur Arnlaugsson of Iceland, will be in charge of final preparations, which include the touchy job of picking the chess sets and board to be used. Schmid said he had invited the two players to come to the hall together on it," he said. "Now many courts take such little evidence to a divorce by default." A former member of the Family Law Committee of the Ohio Bar Rader doesn't believe no fault divorce will pass the state legislature because it is tied to an abortion bill. Judge Johns feels no fault will increase the court caseload so greatly that he would have to hire one or two extra referees. "Now it is almost impossible to secure a contested divorce," he said.

"One side must have seriously broken some promises of the marriage contract while the other side is spotless. Technically, such issues must be pretty serious and not picayune. "So generally the parties and their attorneys settle property differences, one party drops out of the issue and the divorce goes forward as an uncontested matter. "Less than two per cent of divorces are contested and most of these are thrown out and the divorce isn't granted. "Therefore, only on rare occasions is the court called upon or required to order a property division.

"As I understand the no fault proposal, the law would automatically give one-half of all property to each ft DIAL 522 UNE Got a question? A gripe? A problem? Hot Line can help you get an answer.

"Three of five would' join today," Medical Opinion said, "expressing little support for organizations currently charged with representing medicine in federal negotiations." The article did not attempt to define the difference between a doctors' union and guild, but it appeared the word guild did not seem to have the connotation of labor union militancy.

Thirty-five per cent of the doctors responding said they would join either, but of the remainder only three per cent said they would join a union. Twenty-three per cent said they would join a guild. Asked about striking, 38 per cent said they would strike provided emergency services were covered, 11 per cent would strike under certain other conditions, four per cent would strike even if It meant shutting down everything temporarily, 28 per cent would never strike and 19 per cent didn't know what they would do. 4 Saturday's competition, including 60 artistic arrangements.

Donald J. Lett said that if no fault divorce is passed by the Ohio Legislature merely would be recognizing that the courts cannot require two people to live together if they don't want to. "It definitely would put a lot more honesty into divorce proceedings," he said. "If one party wants out he or she is going to find a way to do so. The present concept that one party must be completely in the clear is fiction.

The way society is now, no fault probably is the only answer." Atty. Cole said no fault is a "valid approach to the dissolution of a contract where the marriage has deteriorated to the point where there just isn't any relationship between the people or the children involved." He said law should show there is a conflict but not require one of the parties to elaborate in great detail. One attorney said it ought to be established that the marriage is over. He said now if both parties have grounds for divorce it isn't granted because the person bringing the action must be blameless. If there are grounds on both sides, this is the type of case in which the divorce should be granted, he said.

Atty. Rees Davis said he has advocated such a no fault concept for several years. "It's what we have now anyway," he said. He believes the marriage-divorce procedure should be reversed in that there should be a court hearing in which the husband-wife to be would have to show they are mature enough to handle a marriage contract. He and Atty.

Kenneth G. Frizzell Jr. agreed that divorces should be taken out of the courts unless there is a property or support dispute. Atty. James R.

Corley doesn't believe in no fault, particularly where children are concerned. "Children need the guidance of both parents," he said. Atty. Fred H. Rader said if the marriage is irrevocably strained it shouldn't be necessary for one of the parties to "say all the nasty things" now needed to satisfy the law to get a divorce.

"No fault definitely has mer- Dies of Wounds CHERRY HILL, N. J. (UPI) A security guard accused of the mass murder of six persons died Saturday, partially paralyzed and still unable to say anything that might explain the shooting spree he staged 17 days ago. Edwin J. Grace, 33, died at the Cherry Hill Medical Center after his condition worsened in the early morning, a hospital spokesman said.

spouse. If either party is dissatisfied, the judge makes the property division. "No judge in the twinkling of an eye can absorb the minute details of a lengthy marriage and make a fair and equitable order on property, alimony, support, debts and other such details. "It is a serious matter that will require a great deal of study in each case. "Last year this court granted between 700 and 800 divorces.

It would be humanly impossible in light of other burdens of this office to do this. Under such a no fault setup it would require, I would think, in a county of our size, a minimum of two additional divorce referees to handle these matters. "There is no way any judge can learn in even two or three days of hearings as much about the case as the two people involved and their attorneys. These four people are much better equipped to settle their differences than to throw the burden on the court." Judge Johns added that he looks for the present type hearings to be done away with in some kind of divorce reform within five years. "For me to be in favor of no fault divorce there must be no property or custody matters at issue," he concluded.

Saturday the high mark was 78 and last night it got down to 60. There was 44 one-hundreths of an inch of precipitation Saturday. Showers are planned in many sectors of the nation today, including the Northeast tip of the country, most of Arizona, in and around Louisiana, southern Florida and much of the Great Lakes region. The rest of the nation will be sunny and warm, except for a cold front pushing in from Central Canada. "The urban renewal department, at this time, is calculating all the costs, credits and grants that can be subtracted from the $790,640 figure Immediately so as to lower the amount we would actually have to finance privately.

That information should be available by mid July," Prater said. fiL i Out' from NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE, a.

There were more than 350 entries in Sheriff Still Reads Jail Mail (Continued From Page 1-A) letter was written had just been convicted of killing his three year old step-son and had already been sent back to Mansfield. Borgia also said he did not know the identity of the "Chuck West" mentioned in the letter and did not wish to identify the man who wrote the letter and the man who received it. Borgia said his office censors both ingoing and outgoing mail. "And we are going to continue it but it probably won't be long until we won't be allowed to do this," said Borgia. "I would suggest in closing that the persons experienced in prison security be allowed to operate their institutions in the most efficient and safe manner without interference from persons who are inexperienced," he said.

The letter also may have put a crimp in the plans of the inmate at Mansfield who feels he will be paroled shortly. A portion of one sentence said "I only have four months to the parole horde, and my socialer worker said I would make it the first time "Well, we've sent a copy of that letter to the parole board," said Borgia. The letter also said: "I seen Tom Houghilem name in the paper tonight and he pleaded guilty to 3B and E's (breaking and entering). What the HELL is going on down there in'Norwalk: Can't they do anything right anymore?" Showers and thundershowers are pretty likely today, otherwise, it is expected to be a fine July day. Variable cloudiness through Monday-is the forecast with a 40 per cent chance of showers and thundershowers today and tonight.

The mercury will climb as high as 80 to 85 degrees today and drop down into the low 60s tonight. Monday's high will be in the mid-80s. While most of the grant will be repaid out of the city's credits earned for the project, from funds derived from the temporary rental of some Hoffers properties and the resale of the land, high costs and interests charges could result in the city having to come up with some cash. City to Try Again for Neighborhood Program (Continued From Page 1-A) pie months ago now selected another home. Prater has asked for a meeting with city officials to discuss various questions relating to the Hoffers project.

The principal topic will likely be the repayment of HUD's $790,640 loan to Mansfield for the project..
