i LONDON (UPI) The value of the British pound sterling continued to decline yesterday, dropping to an effective but unofficial devaluation of 7 per cent. The dollar dipped slightly except in France. The pound closed in London trading at $2,423, its lowest level since the government ceased supporting it at the official $2,606 rate on June 23 and allowed it to float. The 18.3-cent decline in the pound's value against the dollar represents a devaluation of 7 per cent. The pound's value declined similarly against other major world currencies in light trading in all exchange markets yesterday.

Except in France, where the dollar gained slight strength on the commercial market, the American currency was weaker yesterday. In West Germany, it slipped to 3.1513 marks from the close last Friday of 3.1530 marks. In relations to the official rate of 3.222 marks, the dollar's decline represents a 2 per cent devaluation against the West German currency.

Why did Fischer accept? "The offer was couched in a way he couldn't refuse. It said, 'If he isn't afraid of Spassky, then Jim Slater, have removed the element of money," said Marshall "So Bobby felt he had to accept. His pride he couldn't go down as a coward." MARSHALL CLAIMED that the issue with Fischer never had been money. "It was the Marshall said. "He felt Iceland wasn't treating this match or his countrymen with the dignity that it and they deserved.

And he was furious about the press censorship. He was flying around the room." Marshall said Fischer told him: "They're trying to stop America from reading about it! That's what they've done all along." The sponsors announced restrictions in move-by-move and photo coverage of the 24-game match because the rights had been sold. SLATER MADE his offer after the Icelandic Chess Fed-eration's board rejected Fischer's demands for 30 per cent of the gate receipts. This would have amounted to considerable sums for both II. fyr) NOT QU alitt.

But he said he wanted persons ap pointed by the President to stay away. The Nixon admistration, through the Justice Department, planned to station security officers in the convention hall who would make decisions on the degree of force needed in case of any disruption. MURPHY TOOK pains to make a distinction between the Justice Department and the Secret Service, giving the Secret Service high marks for cooperation. In contrast, he said, Justice Department officials, who have been in Miami Beach for some time, never have "had the courtesy" to contact him.

The Justice Department denied yesterday it ever had personnel operating under assumed names at the Democratic Convention. But it said one of its units had temporarily rented a $100-a-day suite permanently reserved by the International Longshoremen's Union. "They had no use for it and were happy to have the Community Relations Service (CRS) rent it," a spokesman said. "The Lido Hotel understands the arrangement but somebody got the impression the government was renting it under labor's name." MURPHY raised the issue at a June 20 meeting with Attorney General Richard G. Kleindienst, Assistant Attorney General Harlington Wood Gov.

Reubin Askew and congressional leaders in the office of Senate Democratic leader Mike Mansfield. Meanwhile local officials have banded together to try to make sure no one gts gypped during this year's political conventions. They remember all too well the 1968 Republican National Convention when a newscast-said in a broadcast that he'd paid $1.75 for a hot dog. Meanwhile the entagon said yesterday it is ready to station about 2,000 paratroopers from the Army's 82nd Airborne Division near Miami Beach before the Democratic national convention opens. At Meet SEVERAL THOUSAND moe men fthe 82nd will remain on stand-by alert at Ft.

Bragg, N.C., where the division is based, said Defense Department spokesman Jerry W. Friedheim. GM Recalls Nearly All Chevy Vegas From Page 1 moves too fast to do a good job. A GM spokesman denied the latest defect was the result of an assembly problem. Rather, he said, it was caused by production of shorter axle shafts at a Chevrolet manufacturing plant.

CHEVROLET SAID the short shafts could cause a lock ring to disengage, setting up a chain reaction that could result in the failure of rear wheel brakes and ultimately cause the rear axle to drop off. "Even if rear braking is lost through axle shaft movement," Chevrolet said, "the front brakes will remain operative because of the dual braking system. In such cases, front wheel braking efficiency is maintained." A GM spokesman said the defect was caught by the company's own inspectors and not by the federal government. "We got this one very quickly and moved ourselves," he said. CHEVROLET SAID 59 defective shafts have been reported to date.

Two of the failures, the company said, resulted in minor body damage to the cars. No injuries have been reported, the company said. Chevrolet said Vega owners, upon receipt of their recall letters, can take their cars to their dealers where the axle will be inspected and replaced free of charge if defective. The company put no estimate on the cost of the recall campaign. In April, 130,000 of the current 1972 models were recalled for a fuel and exhaust system correction.

Then in May 350,000 1971 and 1972 models nearly all produced by that time were recalled for repair of a faulty carburetor bracket that could cause the throttle to stick in an open P.M.

The original terms call for the winner to receive $78,125 and the loser $46,875, pius 30 per cent for each of the income from sale of television and photographic rights. Slater's private enrichment of the pot could be used to up the winner's prize to $156,000, with the remainder of his funds to boost the loser's share. He said another alternative would be to add the entire $130,000 or 50,000 pounds to the winner's cut for a total of $208,125. The London investment banker said he made his offer through Dr. Max Euwe, president of FIDE, explaining: "I like chess and have played it for years.

THE NORTH Vietnamese ve besn bases along Hue's western defense since government forces sorted their drive north last week to recapture Quang Tri Province. The country's northernmost province fell to the enemy May 1. On the eastern side of the broad South Vietnamese front, marines reported several small contacts with enemy forces.

They chased small bands of enemy troops west where the North Vietnamese ran into air strikes or government paratroopers. ENEMY ACTIVITY also appeared to be building around Song Be a provincial capital 75 miles northeast of Saigon. Sources said a Soviet-made 130 mm gun had been moved into position by the North Vietnamese and was firing on the city 35 miles northeast of An Loc, another provincial capital that has come under attack. A new North Vietnamese unit of several thousand men was reported in the area. In the air war over North Vietnam, American planes pounded the Uong Bi power plant 10 miles northeast of Haiphong for the second time in less than six weeks.

The U.S. Command said the facility was heavily damaged. In a delayed report, the command said a U. S. Navy A7 was lost over the North on June 18 and the pilot is missing.

"Now suddently what was clear is to be changed," he said. "All of a sudden, after it was over, a challenge was filed." THE ACTION was tantamount to losing the game and then asking that it be played over, he said. It was essential that the court settle the matter before the convention convenes Monday, he said, because the 133 votes could "determine the outcome of the convention." Joseph A. Califano, representing the Democratic National Committee, argued that the court would be treading on dangerous grounds if it intervened in the matter. "It would be a tragedy for courts to get into this arena," he said.

He added that the party itself had ultimate responsibility to decide its own operations. I 6 A.M. to 12 9 From Page 1 Chinese units in North Wr.am. A report in the Washington Post, fi'ed from Peking, said yesterday that "diplomatic sources" in the Chinese capital said China "is sending laborers into North Vietnam." Asked about the report in the Post and other media, Charles W. Bray III, the State Department spokesman, said "to the best of my knowledge we are not in a position to confirm these reports." NORTH VIETNAMESE artillerymen blasted Hue for the second straight day and more than 30 122mm artillery shells crashed into the former imperial capital.

A military spokesman said one boy was wounded and four nouses were damaged in the daylight attacks. At least 101 shells have hit the city during the two-day barrage. Most were directed at the Citadel, which serves as the military command post for the northern region. Twelve persons were reported killed in the Sunday's attack, the first shelling of the city since the enemy offensive began March 30. Enemy gunners pounded a base camp yesterday on the northwestern approach to Hue with about 500 rounds of 130mm artillery and mortar fire, a communique said.

He was reversed temporarily by the appeals court, however, on grounds no injury was suffered until the convention seats were actually denied.

THEY RETURNED to the legal battleground after the committee voted 71 to 61 to seat the Daley challengers. The California controversy was argued first in Hart's courtroom. Joseph L.
