The opening was a curious blend of unusual Manhattan defense with ubiquitous Chicago, Houston Celtics NEW YORK (API The sale of the Boston Celtics for $5.1 million to real estate tycoon Robert Schmcrti was approved Tuesday by the National Basketball Association's Board of Governors. At the same time, the board rejected a $5 million bid by nine-man group from Milwaukee and Chicago, headed by Marvin L. Fishman, for purchase of the Chicago Bulls. In making the announcements.

NBA Commissioner Walter Kennedy said that the governors did not vote unanimously on either action, but he did not disclose the vote. Thirteen of 17 votes were needed for approval. Schmertz. 46, of Lakewood, N.J., Ls a part owner of the New England Whalers of the new World Hockey Association. He had been a minority stockholder in the NBA's Portland team, but divested his interest in the Trail Blazers upon purchasing the Celtics.

The Celtics will continue to play in Boston Garden, where they have a year-to-year lease, and Arnold "Red" Auerbach will remain as the club's president and general manager, it was disclosed. However, it ts expected that Schmertz will try and build a new stadium in the Boston area to house the Celtics and Whalers. Schmertz, who purchased the Celtics from Investors Funding which had owned the club since 1971, will be only the second sole owner in the team's 26-year history. The other was the late Walter Brown, who Sale bought the team In 1946. He died in 14.

"Boston is a very good sports town and I'm confident that with the proper promotions and an intensive season ticket sales drive we can improve the attendance," said Schmertz. "I'm ready to do whatever Red feels is necessary." Last season, the Celtics had their biggest attendance in history, more than 300,000 but were outdrawn by the Boston Bruins of the National Hockey League and the Boston Braves of the American Hockey League. The Fishman group's offer to purchase the Bulls from Elmer Rich was apparently rejected because it had been unable to obtain a lease for Chicago Stadium, where the club played last season. Fishman, however, said he had signed a three-year lease to play a full schedule of Bulls games in the Chicago Amphitheatre. The Stadium seats about for basketball, while the Amphitheatre, where the Bulls played during the 1966-67 season, holds only some 10,500.

Arthur Wirtz, owner of the Stadium, belongs to a group which has offered to buy the Bulls. He has refused to discuss lease terms with the Fishman group. "I'm disappointed by the temporary setback our group received today," said Fishman, a Milwaukee realtor and minority stockholder of the NBA's Milwaukee Bucks. "I would like to emphasize the word temporary. We intend to pursue every legal action to assure our acquisition of the team." By STEPHENS BROENING Associated Press Writer REYKJAVIK.

Iceland (API-Bobby Fischer made his opening assault on the Soviet Chess fortress Tuesday night, but world champion Boris Spassky repelled it and left the American with a tough fight for a draw when their first game was adjourned. The first game of history's richest world chess title match was called after 40 moves and 3 hours and 34 minutes of play. It will resume Wednesday at 1 p.m. EDT, or 5 p.m. Reykjavik time.

When play was called off for the night, there was little left on the board: a king and five pawns for Fischer; a king, three pawns and a bishop for Spassky. U.S. grandmaster Robert Byrne said: "Fischer is going to have trouble making a draw. I don't see how Spassky can lose." Svetozar Gligoric, the Yugoslav grandmaster, commented: "It is doubtful whether black can save a draw." Fischer is playing the black pieces and Spassky the white, which means the Russian had the first move. Fischer has played Spassky five times in the past.

The three times he played the black pieces he lost. Playing white he was able to salvage two draws, but has never triumphed over the Soviet. Spassky made his first move Tuesday all by himself in the shadowless illumination of the stage at Reykjavik's Sports palace.

The Astros tied the game in the sixth on singles by Wynn and Lee May and a sacrifice fly by Tommy Helms. The Cubs wrapped up the game in the seventh with five runs including a three-run homer by Pepitone. In the first game, Johnny Edwards led off the seventh with a single and Helms doubled.

An incriminating document supposedly was seized and enough circumstantial evidence was amassed to confound everyone except Perry Mason.

According to twists and turns of this rather startling plot, Karl Sweetan, a quarter back of no great distinction, retired from pro football a fort a 3-2 lead with his homer in the sixth before the Astros' big seventh inning rally. Johnny Edwards led off the seventh with a single and Helms doubled. Pinch batter Jimmy Stewart hit a sacrifice fly to tie the game and Roger Metzger put the Astros ahead with another sacrifice fly.

D.

Roberts, the coach of the New Orleans Saints. As soon as he was sounded out on the proposition, Roberts immediately notified Jack Danahy, the security chief of the National Football League and a former FBI agent himself. The trap was baited and sprung. Football teams attach so much importance to playbooks that any team member who loses his book is subject to an automatic $500 fine, a very stiff penalty. That's why these hulking brutes can be seen around training camps these days with playbooks clutched as firmly as if they were diamond-studded.

If the secrets of the Rams strategy were really offered by Sweetan, how much value could they have had? After all, they were a year old and it must be assumed that Tommy Prothro has made considerable changes since then. "We study the other guy's defenses in the movies," said one coach, "but we never would be as sure of our conclusions as we would be if we saw them diagrammed in a playbook." Playbooks Give Theories "What a playbook gives you," said another coach, "is the theory behind the setting of defenses." Ever since football was invented, of course, teams have been seeking information about other teams, legitimately or otherwise. If scouts were undercover espionage agents in the early days of the sport, they gained a respectability before the exchange of movies virtually made their jobs much more subordinate. Just how valuable is advance knowledge? Here's a sample. Many years ago the Redskins were practicing at Catholic University in Washington before a game with the New York Giants.

An interested spectator at their workouts was a young seminarian who had been both a football player and wild-eyed rooter. Over and over the Redskins practiced the same play on the kickoff The seminarian could contain himself no longer. He had to phone the Giant office. "The Redskins will block to open a hole between the third and fourth men on the left," he reported. He called the turn precisely.

The Capital Braves (CB) split out the third and fourth men. Unfortunately, however, no other Giants filled the gap. The Redskin ball carrier ran the opening kickoff through that hole for a touchdown. Lip-Reading Better than using an enemy playbook, however, was the device that Johnny Dell Isola hit on some 35 years ago when Ray Flaherty left the Giants to become coach of the Redskins. Reasoning that Flaherty would use a system of familiar signals, Dell crouched almost on the ground and watched Sammy Baugh call off the numbers in the huddle.

The lip-reading Dell Isola promptly warned the Giants of what to expect. They won easily. Gene Flipiski switched from the Cleveland Browns to the Giants in the year when Paul Brown he always denied it tried a variation of his courier-guards bringing in plays to the quarterback from the bench. If memory serves, George Ratterman was the quarterback and he had a special helmet with a short-wave receiver inside it. Warned what to expect, the Giants set up a short-wave receiver of their own.

Filipski was on the earphones and he knew all the Brownie signals. Short-W ave System "Off right tackle," he shouted. The New Yorkers stopped it for no gain. "Screen to the left," he shouted. It lost two yards.

The next play lost three. The Brownies punted and then went off the air for the remainder of the game. They stayed off forever more, too, because the commissioner barred such gimmicks. "Bob Zuppkee told it best many years ago," said Weeb Ewbank of the Jets. "He said he didn't care if the other team knew his plays as long as they didn't know when he'd use which one.

When Vince Lombard! had Paul Homung and Jimmy Taylor, he could have announced his plays without the defense being able to stop Green Bay. That also went for Paul Brown when he had Jimmy Brown and his great backs at Cleveland. Perfect execution will trouble any s7 to WARDS DOUBLE A78-13 TBLS. BLK. PLUS 1.78 F.E.T.
