Police, firemen and neighbors coo Russian Chess Champ Is 'Sorry For Fischer9 days ago Spassky said that unlike Fisher he did not set out to be a world champion and that he would be "the happiest man alive if I were no longer champion." "I like to play chess for fun and not fame," he said. "My idea of a pleasant evening is to share some wine with friends and play chess. Sometimes I lose on purpose to please my friends. "I look forward to Reykjavik as if it were a holiday." Man Sentenced In Robberies JACKSONVILLE (UPI) -A 29-year-old Hastings television repairman received two concurrent 20-year prison sentences yesterday after pleading guilty to charges of robbing two savings and loan associations in Jacksonville and Gainesville.

Cecil Westley Turlington also received a five-year sentence, which will run concurrently with the bank robbery sentences, after U.S. District Judge Gerald B. Tjoflat revoked his probation for a conviction last year of violating the national Firearms Act. U.S. Adviser Jhe point was reached again this year last Sunday the final day of phase one when six small tarpon were hung with two larger ones.

The weights posted were as follows: 48, 49, 54, 54, 58, 64, 76 and 83. Tarpon, as everyone knows, is a beautiful fish and a courageous battler. It seems almost criminal to waste one of nature's most noble creations in such a way. r. Since few eat the tarpon, the fish left hanging on public display are periodically gathered up by garbage trucks and "discarded into the city dump.

These tarpon are brought in by fishermen who hope to win one of the 100 or so prizes and trophies to be awarded at the tournament's conclusion. but, the pitiful fact is, a 40 to 75 pound silver king will be worth little or nothing to those catching them since the odds lavor larger ones being c'aui during the 10-weeks-itfng event. 7 Perhaps there is some justification for smaller fish being entered by novices, juniors, or in the light tackle division. But, otherwise, no. Everyone, of course, can criticize.

However, griping just doesn't cut it unless something constructive can come from it. So, with that in mind, let's pour a few ideas into the hopper and see what jells possibly in time for changes during phase two. Jtein. How about jumping the minimum size limit from the present 48 inches to 60 inches, except for juniors and light tackle enthusiasts? Item. How about setting a minimum weight of 75 pounds for all fish except for juniors, novices and light tacklers? Item.

Mohr, 62, said he wanted to resign effective June 30 "for personal reasons." He noted he has spent nearly 40 years in government service, almost 33 of them with the FBI. Gray moved quickly when he was n.nTied to succeed Hoover to prevent what was reported to be proposed mass resignation by the top men who had served Hoover. ALL EXCEPT associate director Clyde W. Tolson, 72, and ailing, stayed. But on May 10, Alex Rosen, an assistant to the director, resigned and on June 1, Joseph J.

Casper quit as head of the important training division. Mohr said he had no plans for the future "other than to relax and take care of some of the personal things which have accumulated over the years." As one of just two men with the title of assistant to the director, Mohr was in charge nc fniir rnainr ft in rhp OI IOUr major OlVlSIOns Ul me bureau: identification (fin- gerprints), training, adminis- traton, and files and corn- munications. A native of West Newark, N.J., Mohr joined the FBI in 1939 and worked in San Francisco and Los Angeles before being promoted to supervisor at FBI headquarters here. Daley Heads Illinois Delegation SPRINGFIELD, 111. (UPI) Mayor Richard J.

Daley won his fifth term as chairman of Illinois' Democratic national convention delegation by a wide margin yesterday after U.S. Sen. Adlai E. Stevenson III withdrew his challenge. Stevenson issued a statement asking that his name not be placed in nomination and saying that his supporters had been subjected to "recrimination" and "reprisals" at the hands of the mayor's supporters.

Investigators who reached the crash scene yesterday recovered the plane's flight recorder from amid the scrub brush. If intact, it might clear up some of the mystery. Initial reports from military and civilian sources said the plane appeared to have collided with another aircraft, probably an allied fighter or bomber. The U.S. and South Vietnamese air forces, however, said none of their planes was missing.

The allied military commands in Saigon insisted the jet exploded in the air and plunged to the ground without any collision. Searchers at the scene also became skeptical about the collision theory when they failed to find any evidence of a second craft, such as different colored seats or chunks of fuselage painted another color. BIGGEST SINGLE peace found was the 30-foot tail section, now squashed like a giant pancake. They also found pieces of the wing but had so far been unable to locate the engine. "It was obvious that the plane exploded and broke up before it hit the ground," one searcher said.

An aviation expert who also visited the site listed four possible causes a collision, a missile, a bomb or structural failure. He said it could take months to find the truth. "There's no evidence of a collision at this time but it's not ruled out," according to the expert. "The plane broke up in the air and came straight down. Representatives of the U.S., Thai, Japanese, Philippine and Taiwan embassies visited the crash site yesterday to try to identify victims.

(UPI) -Inflation has hit the world's oldest profession and, as might be expected, customers are protesting. Thursday night about 40 truckers, most from out of state, gathered with picket signs at a large truck stop south of here protesting high prices. They claim the prostitutes were charging $25 compared with $10 three, months ago. The men occasionally shouted earthy sayings to the girls as they drove by in autos. Only one man crossed the picket line during four hours and he was roundly jeered by the pickets.

One trucker said he was not against prostitution. "I'm just against the prices they're charging," he said, asking not to be identified because "my old lady may find out what I've been doing." A spokesman for the Fresno County sheriff's office said officers were pa-troling the area at the time but added no law violations were observed. In Viet John. You were the best we had to give." Vann, 47, served more than eight years as a lieutenant colonel in the Army in Vietnam. He retired and became an officer of the Agency for International Development (AID).

All winter long, bucks in the deer herd have looked just like alf the rest of the deer. Paul M. Kelsey, New York regional conservation educa- tor, says that the mechanics i of deer antler growth have fascinated people for centuries. Antlers of the deer, family are replaced annually, distinctly different from, the horns of antelope, buffalo; or domestic cattle, which sim-' ply adds additional external growth each season. Scientists think that increased sunlight is picked up by the deer's eye and passed to the pituitary gland located at the base of the brain.

This gland then stimulates the start of antler growth. By mid-May, growth has After the breeding season, the buck's antlers are shetL for the winter. CAB Approves EAL Cut Rate Group Fares WASHINGTON W) The Civil Aeronautics Board cleared the way yesterday for Eastern Air Lines to introduce new round-trip group fares between major Midwest and eastern cities and Florida, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands June 23. The CAB dismissed complaints of Braniff, Delta and National airlines against Eastern's proposal but said it had some question as to the need for the new group fares since they are only slightly below existing individual excursion fares in many major markets. The fares, as much as 47 per cent below coach fares, are available to groups of 40 or more persons during the fall and spring months of relatively light travel.

They are effective for round tips of up to 30 days, with reservations made at least 30 days in advance and tickets purchased at least 21 days in advance. Prof Digs Out Tf iimnrrnitf Tofe Of Law Practice VANCOUVER W) Gouging humor out of the law is like digging for gold tough but rewarding, says David Huberman, professor of law at the University of British Columbia. He's devoted years to sifting out what little humor there is in the mills of justice and plans to write a book about it. At one time he was chairman of admission to the UBC law faculty and he recalled a couple of answers to admission questions, turned in by law students and student accountants. Question: Define union check-off dues.

Answer: "A famous European author." Question: "Define a quorum." Answers: "A place for crushing rock." "A place where the Romans used to sacrifice the Christians." "For a quorum, the directors have to be odd." "If you really want to laugh," be said, "you'd better remember that some of these people might be your lawyers, your accountants." Prof. Huberman also has a file devoted to letters addressed to lawyers. One says: "Thank you for offering to represent me in court, but I don't need a lawyer. I'm going to tell the truth." Two Arrested On Narcotics Charges WEST PALM BEACH (UPI) Customs officials revealed yesterday they had arrested two men at the air-, port here Tuesday in connection with the seizure on Bi-mini Island in the Bahamas of 18 pounds of cocaine given a street value of $3 million. Arraigned yesterday on charges of conspiracy to smuggle narcotics into the United States were Ingo Grill, 34, of New York, identified as a German citizen, and William S.

Honchell, 35, of College Park, Ga. Bond for Grill was set at $100,000 and for Honchell at $5,000. MOSCOW (UPI) Boris Spassky, the world chess champion, said yesterday he felt sorry for American challenger Bobby Fischer because of his "persecution mania" but considered him a "remarkable" player without whom the world of chess would be "very dull." "If I had the freedom to choose my challenger I would ask for Fischer," Spassky told a news conference. Their world championship matches start July 2 at Rekjavik, Iceland. SPASSKY, 35, was reluctant to comment on th e29-year-old Fischer's boasts that he would win the championship and his accusations that the Russians had plotted to deprive him of the title by arranging to hold the games in Iceland.

But, after repeated questioning, he said Fischer's "remarks make a strange impression. He appears to have a persecution mania and thinks Soviet chess players want to harm him. There is nothing to it and i feei sorry for Fischer." Spassky also defended Fischer against charges of an overriding interest in making money from chess. "In my opinion, although he is anxious to make money out of chess that is not the only thing he cares for," Spassky said. "His talk about money may be only an effort to assert his individuality in a country like the United States where there is a lot of money." Spassky refused to predict the outcome of their match.

"I DO NOT know who will win but I am certain it will be an interesting and important event," he said. When the two grand masters last met in West Germany in 1970 Spassky won three games and the other two were drawn. But in a conversation with a Western newsman several U.S. Removing Another Combat Unit From Viet SAIGON (UPI) The U.S. Command announced yesterday it will pull one of its two remaining ground combat brigades out of the war zone.

Military sources said the brigade's job of guarding the U.S. airbase at Da Nang will be assigned to a South Vietnamese division recently routed in combat. A command communique said the 196th Infantry Brigade would be deactivated, ending America's ground combat role in upper South Vietnam. The 196th has had the job of guarding the Da Nang base and its 5,000 American servicemen as well as scattered U.S. units below the demilitarized zone (DMZ) separating the two Vietnams.

With deactivation of the 196th the principal job of guarding the airbase will go to South Vietnam's 3rd Infantry Division, which broke up and ran when the Communists captured Quang Tri fProvince, military sources said. WASHINGTON (UPI) -President Nixon awarded the Medal of Freedom, the nation's highest civilian citation, posthumously yesterday to John Paul Vann, who served for 10 years as a top American adviser in South Vietnam. Vann, killed last week in a helicopter crash in Vietnam, was buried at Arlington National Cemetery, with Secretary of State William P. Rogers representing Nixon. The president invited Vann's family to the White House and presented the award for Vann to his eldest son, John Allen Vann, 24.

THE CITATION READ: "Soldier of peace and patriot of two nations, the name of John Paul Vann will be honored as long as free men remember the struggle to preserve the independence of South Vietnam. "His military and civilian service in Vietnam spanned a decade, marked throughout by resourcefulness, professional excellence and unsurpassed courage; by supreme dedication and personal sacrifice. "A truly noble American, a suburb leader, he stands with LaFayette in that gallery of heroes who have made another brave people's cause their own." During the Arlington cemetery rites for Vann, third most powerful American serving in Vietnam, he was described as "one of the authentic heroes of a grim and unpopular war who gave all he had even to his life." ROBERT KOMER, former U.S. ambassador to Saigon and former head of the civil operations and rural development service in Vietnam, gave the eulogy. He added: "We shall not forget you, Gill Seeks Sixth Straight Victory ST.
