Nixon- McGovern Match Inspires New Chess Game CHICAGO SUN-TIWES I A Cliess sets arc registering a boost in sales liere, thanks to Ihc big match. Not (he Uobuy Fischer-Boris Spassky match in Iceland, but the really big one right here at home--the George MoGovern-- Richard M. Nixou contest. Nixon and Mcdovern are represented by the two kings in game, which is called Chcs 72, and Ford, assistant manager al Carson-Piric-Scolt and reports, it's been selling well. No kidding.

The originator of the game, Marc Howard of Detroit, got the idea in his sleep last, November, according to his New York press agent. That prophetic dream also nominated McGovern as king on the Democratic side, and Howard risked more than when he decided to place McGpvcrn's image on the Democratic king and go into production with the sets for delivery to stores in Slay. AH of the big shots are represented in the set including Hubert Humphrey as a bishop, Spiro T. Agnew and John Connally as knights and Mitchell and Edward M. Kennedy as rooks.

Ihn jt. 228-5101 (C) NEW YORK TIMES SERVICE A I I a Lasl-minnle attempt lo keep the a -V i li er championship match alive included Ihc reputed arrival of Bobby Fischer's sister, Mrs. Joan Targ; a. scries of I i a cablegram campaign; and an a i a tion of ihe decibel content of Exhibition Hall, lite site of the match.

Mrs. Targ's arrival was reported by Iceland radio. Fred Cramer, Fischer's representative here, would neither confirm nor deny the report. She has not checked into i hotel, was his only comment. Fischer, said a remains sleadfasl in his refusal to play Sunday's game unless his two conditions are met.

Fischer still insists that Ihe i a television cameras ai'c i a i and a I lie Chester Fox which has purchased all i i rights, has deceived him. I 1 i a I all cameras removed from the hall. The other, and more important, i i revolves around Ihc forfeit of Fischer's second game last Thursday. On thai occasion Ihe American grandmaster failed lo show whereupon the a Sclunid, started Hie clock and forfeited Ihe game a a hour later. i I) maintains that his dork a a illegally, and he refuses to show up for any game unless the forfeiture is rescinded.

i a a a commit- ire, by' a It--0 vole, upheld SchniivVs i and called il i a American representative, Cramer, abstained, nit Ihe grounds thai the comm i had not devoted enough lime in Ihe problem. In an effort to break Ihe impasse. Paul a a one of Fischer's lawyers, a a suggested a committee delay signing forfeit ruling. Then it would be a pro tern ruling, in he considered laliT. While Hie i game is held in abeyance, the.

second game is held in abey- anco. the second game can be played, with Fischer at IhQ white pieces. A meeting was lo be held to discuss this proposal, but it seems unlikely that the Russian delegation will accept it. It is also reported that Spas- sky, disgusted by the delays and legal maneuvering, is considering a few prolcsts of his ouii. Up lo now the Russian delegation has not objected to anything, and has punctilious-' ly'observed Iho Idler of the law.

Spassky has been on a fishing trip for the last Uvo a and is expected back Sunday. Americans hero have started a campaign. They arc telephoning friends in flic i Stales'and are asking them to cable Fischer, unrig him 1 Fischer has been receiving large numbers of communications in recent days. The American delegation says a the messages are split 511--511 about his tactics. The Icelandic Chess Federa- i i a staled Unit il Fischer was bothered so much by noise a a i from the cameras, it was possible a all film and television coverage would be i i a in an effort to keep the match alive.

In the meantime. Fox and his lawyers, Richard C. Stein, engaged a sound engineer to test the hall and report on how much noise the cameras actually were making. The answer was: No noise at all.
