United Nations Publication Yearbook Serves Menu Of Factual Tidbits People in Ireland average 3,450 calories a day. The Indonesians ate the least an average of 1,750 calories. American consumed 3,290. China has submitted some facts to the United Nations since joining the organization last year, but none of this was in time for the yearbook.

metric tons of steel, 562 billion cigarettes, 158 million hectoliters of beer and nearly 80,000 book titles. Americans owned 89 million of the world's 192.6 million automobiles. The Soviet Union was second in steel, book and cigarette production, but a distant fourth behind West Germany and Britain in beer production. 3 a By HAL BOYLE NEW YORK (AP) Do you want to be an old-timer? Some people tend to think that being an old-timer also makes one an old fogy. It doesn't.

There is all the difference between being thought of as an old-timer or as an old fogy. An old-timer is regarded with respect and usually affection. An old fogy is treated with disrespect, ridicule, or even contempt. An old-timer is someone who has had a lot of experience with the ways of the world and has teamed something from it. An old fogy is merely a stick-in-the-mud tvho thinks that anything that happened yesterday is better than anything that can happen today or tomorrow.

E3 An old-timer can still be sowing his wild oats at 70. An old fogy probably went to seed before he was 40. An old-timer is still willing to say to life, "Let me see what else you've got in the old grab bag." But the old fogy says, "No matter what else you show me, I already know what is best." An old-timer and an old fogy are alike in that they both have seen a lot. But where the oldtimer still keeps his eyes open, the old fogy keeps his mind shut. If the old-timer goes to the office Christmas party he may get a bit tipsy or even come home with a lipstick mark on his collar.

If the old fogy goes to the office Christmas party, he either leaves unnoticed after 15 minutes or remains as a disapproving skeleton at the banquet. The story-exchanging gang around the office water cooler opens up to admit the old-timer. But when the old fogy approaches, it breaks up and melts away. The old-timer enjoys keeping in step with the times. The old fogy marches only to the echoes of stilled drums.

Of course, even the best-adjusted old-timer now and then gets so windy with his reminiscences that the younger heads around him begin to nod. That, unfortunately, is something of an occupational disease among old-timers, and the wise ones are aware of it and try to curb their remembering tongues. But on the other hand, the old fogy isn't just a bit of a bore at times. He is a big bore at all times and to everyone, including himself, even when he is silent. So don't mind if the passage of years makes you an old-timer.

It's a proud title. Just be sure, old-timer, that the milk of human kindness in you doesn't turn sour. That will make you just another dull old fogy.

Several other countries in Africa and Asia reported infant death rates ranging between 10 and 20 per cent.

The yearbook shows the lowest infant mortality rate to be 11.7 deaths for 1,000 live births in Sweden, based on 1969 figures. Swedes also had the longest life expectancy at birth, 76 years for women and 72 for men. The shortest life expectancy at birth is 35 for women born in Chad and 25 for men born in Gabon. The United States in 1970 showed an infant mortality rate of nearly 20 deaths for 1,000 births. The life expectancy for Americans born in 1968 was 66.6 years for men and 74 for women.

Among other findings: The United Sates produced more steel, books, cigarettes and beer than any other nation and had nearly half of all automobiles in 1970. It turned out 120 million rate reported, 19.3 weddings for every 1,000 people. The Gilbert and Ellice Islands, a British colony in the South Pacific, reported the highest divorce rate, five for each 1,000 people. That, however, is based on 20-year-old figures while the Liberia figure is for 1969 and the Virgin Islands for 1970. The 838-page yearbook is filled with statistics on world-wide and regional economic and social trends.

It is prepared annually by the U.N. Statistical Office with the help of statisticians of more than 150 countries and territories and the U.N. specialized agencies. Figures for the United States show 10.7 marriages and 3.5 divorces a year for 1,000 people. The figure for the Soviet Union is 9.7 marriages, 2.6 divorces.

Front Street Downtown Fremont 96 1.92 96 LONDON (AP) British Financier James Slater has been stalled in his efforts to get the $120,000 prize money he put up for the world chess championship between Bobby Fischer and Boris Spassky in Iceland.

Under Britain's foreign exchange control regulations, he cannot get the money out of the country until the Bank of England says so. A bank spokesman said Slater had applied for permission to get the money to the players but declined to say whether bank approval would be forthcoming. Slater, a chess fan, cannot transfer the money from his worldwide banking and investment empire to foreigners or open bank accounts for either Fischer or Spassky in Britain without the bank's approval. The most he can do is pay $720 a year. That's the maximum gift payment permitted to go to nonsterling areas from Britain.

Stay away from him or he will whip you with a great big strap." I Laura, recently divorced, kept drumming this warning into her five-year-old son. She had been given custody of the child at the time of the divorce, and she meant to tighten her grip on him by any and all means. Actually, her ex-husband was devoted to the boy. When he found out about Laura's tactics, he haled her into court. The judge took the matter so seriously that t)e changed the custody order, transferring the boy from his mother to his father.

I As a general rule, the law condemns efforts by one divorced parent to poison the mind of the child against the other. It condemns "implanting in his tender mind the seeds of hate and the cankerous beginnings of malice toward those whom he should cherish." Likewise, the law frowns on the use of the child as a pawn in financial bargaining. For example: I A divorcee constantly belittled her ex-husband to their small daughter. But she also let him know that she would stop as soon as he agreed to a large cash settlement. Again, a court denounced her tactics and switched custody from mother to father.

The court said she had no right to use the child as a kind of blackmail weapon for her own benefit. Of course, in these highly emotional situations, it may be difficult for a court to separate fact from fiction. As a result, judges sometimes fall back on solutions mat are admittedly less than perfect. In another case, at the time of the divorce, custody of a child had been divided between husband and wife. Later, in a court hearing, each accused the other of "poisoning the child's mind against me." After due deliberation, the court decided to leave custody just as it was divided.

Even though this meant exposing the child to parental crossfire, the court said at least it gave each parent "equal time" to defend his character.
