Near midnight Friday, about 50 youths bathed in the buff in the lighted pool, frolicking under the passive gaze of two lifeguards. About a half-dozen young women, one with a butterfly tattoo on her posterior, joined the mostly male swimming party.

Chess boards in the-12th and 13th centuries were often the center of treachery, revenge, intrigue and murder, according to sagas of the time. Garner were often in (AP) If old Pierre Janssen, the famed French astronomer who died in 1907, could stand in the observation bay of the sleek jet streaking over Canada, tears of joy and excitement would fill his eyes. Although a century of scientific discovery separates them, Janssen would have felt a kindred spirit with the men in green flights suits and bulbous earphones who scurried about Friday in the giant Air Force airplane stuffed with exotic scientific gear. Jhssen's love as an astronomer was studying eclipses of the sun those rare, fleeting moments when the moon slides in front of the sun, blotting it out.

During his long career Janssen suffered numerous adversities to journey to eclipses in several parts of the world. His" instruments were of the crudest sort bits of glass held in place by wooden frames. The old astronomer would have seen first hand that the adversities are gone as he watched scientists from the Lps Alamos, N.M., Scientific Laboratory practice for their study the park, which has taken on a carnival-like atmosphere for the approaching Democratic National Convention. "This place must look like a zoo to them," said young Don Bode of Bryan, Ohio. "They looked at us like animals.

It doesn't bother me though because I'm used to it." Other protesters lounged under a huge banyan tree, swatted mosquitos and complained about a shortage of pot. The pungent odor of marijuana filled the air. Elderly couples walked arm-in-arm in the warm evening air, pausing to chat with the youngsters. One gray-haired woman pulled away from her husband to argue religion with a chanting Hare Krishna devotee, dressed in flowing robes. While the number of protesters camping in the park swelled several hundred, it was still far short of the thousands originally predicted for the convention, which opens Monday.

Tents, large and small, dotted the 36-acre, palm-shaded recreational complex in the center of Miami Beach's retirement community. Oldsters living in faded apartment hotels seemed unconcerned about the influx of counter-culture groups. "They're very nice," said Mrs. Julius Bachenheimer. "One of them asked -me where he could get some cigarettes and when told him, he said 'sei gesund' (stay healthy) in Yiddish." Another lady sitting on a lounge chair nearby interjected: "My only complaint is that they were singing and playing Democrats Blast Nixon 'Tyranny' MANAGER: Paul Boliver, of Stevensville, has been employed as product manager of commercial audio products by Electro-Voice of Buchanan.

Freedom-of-information proposals to be placed before the Democratic National Convention in Miami Beach next week would put party on record in favor of more open government "with the fullest possible disclosure of information (and) with an end to abuses of security classifications and executive privilege." Proposals also express a determination "that never again shall government seek to censor the newspapers and television." They call for strengthening the freedom-of-information law, and say: "We should administer the security systems so as to limit the number of officials' who can make a document secret." These stories are sagas from Willard Fiske's "Chess in, Iceland and in Icelandic Literature," published in 1905.

It is said that American chess champion Bobby Fischer has gotten the highest stakes in history of chess forhis series beginning Tuesday in Reykjavik with Boris the' world champion. Even though thousands of dollars of prize money are on the line, today's championship prize is chicken feed. Rognvald played King Louis for his head, A woman was the prize in one knightly saga. A king put up his horse, falcon and sword for a maiden and engaged in a game, winner take all. The king lost.

He left the game on foot, unarmed and unloved. "Little consolation do you derive from the game of chess for now I own your costly objects!" said his competitor. Talk about concentration. Today, Fisher feels the glare of the elaborate chess table in Reykjavik may be too bright. It may distract him.

Fischer could take a lesson from King Valdemar, in the year 1157, The king concentrated so hard on his chess game that when Canute gave him a big kiss, he didn't even look up from the board. It took a troop of enemy soldiers rushing into the room to get his attention. The king lept up to fight. He fell with a wounded thigh. But his men covered him with their bodies for protection.

They were chopped to bits, and the king escaped. The game was never finished. Concentration could have been the dowfall of Eric penning, a wise ruler, it is said. He was lured to the chess table by his blackhearted brother in the summer of 1250. The brother abused Eric as he sat playing chess, and Eric was killed that very night.

"Poor King! Little did he merit so cruel a checkmate!" was the comment from Fiske.

(AP) Despite spirited opposition from within their own ranks, top leaders of Miami's Cuban exile colony of 300,000 have called for "a massive demonstration" Tuesday at the Democratic National Convention. Carlos Prio Socarras, former Cuban president and the demonstration's chief organizer, said Friday that he expects up to 3,000 refugees to march "peaceably and with good intentions" outside the Miami Beach Convention Hall. MWe are not protesting against anyone," Prio said, "only against the idea that Cubans in this country have no right to do anything to overthrow Fidel Castro."

Prio asserted that while "the American people in general are against dictators Sen. George McGovem and other candidates are talking of re-establishing relations with a dictator 90 miles away." Prio added that while the refugees "owe a great debt to this country the conventions are being held in this Cuban exile capital and we must show what we believe in." i I 1 4-H Foundation To Meet Wednesday JCPenney The values are here every day.
