Chicago Tribune, Tuesday, June 27, 1972 Section 2 -3 Quash Critics with Quiche Boblis Today U2y Says The Urban Uproar Chess Storm Brewing? A Quiche: Not an everyday dish. Pretty Portugal New York IN PORTUGAL, the Algarve, it's warm and sunny and divine. And because that sort of weather is irresistible bait to the international set plus the lure of the opening of perhaps Europe's most exclusive club to go with it the international-ites turned out in a beautiful bizzing hive for the premiere weekend party of the Club da Quinta de Lago, which, trans lated from the Portuguese, means the plantation of the Lagoon. Isn't that pretty? The chib, the brainchild dream of the Viscount of Vicom-tesse Paul de Roslerre, is the only private residential club on 'the continent. It's rather on the order of the Lyford Cay Club in Nassau to give you the picture.

There are miles of pale gold ocean beaches, close to 2,000 acres of pine covered green hills and an enormous blue lagoon. The clubhouse, in Portuguese plantation style, has been decorated by a nigh-powered trio, Duarte Pinto-Coelbo, Pedro Leltado, who did Annabel's in London, and Jon Bannenberg. Very chic. To keep the easily bored from getting easily bored a 27-hole golf course is being built There are riding stables and tennis courts. You can sail, fish, shoot and swim.

It is super beach club life carried to the ultimate. Members of the club can either live in the club proper or ni their own villas. For those who just can't live without night life, Annabel's of London is opening a branch. My dear, but they've thought of The De Rosieres she is a beautiful blonde American from Ohio, he is Harry Winston's man about Europe, and everyone calls them Harriet and Paul have always wanted to found just such a club and looked everywhere for years for the right spot. To get away from "our crowded hectic world" to a perfect and private place where "the most attractive and amusing people from all over Europe and the United States can relax and have fun in an exclusive setting" was their burning desire.

Now they mink they've done it at the Quinta da Lago, where the membership will be controled by a very active board of governors who are all virtually interested, not just figureheads. That's nice to know. The weekend was glorious an Al Fresco dinner party by the lagoon with waterskiing our flambeaux that means they turn lights on the skiers, a lunch for 250, a black tie dinner dance. Then there were beach picnics with practically everyone riding around the quinta on horseback or in old carriages, to say nothing of an informal dinner and discotheque party. It was all terribly relaxed, you understand, rather like a big country house party, terribly cozy but elegant withal.

And you can do just what you want just when you want to do it Wow! Now, because I know you're dying to know about the vital board of governors, here they are: president, Paul de Rosiere, naturally. Also H. S. Prince Constantino of Li-chtenstein, the Duke D'Orleans, the Duke of Marlborough, former U. S.

Ambassador Guiford Dudley, former Portuguese Ambassador Vasco Garin, and also from the U. S. such stalwarts as Russell Forgan Harry Piatt of the Tiffany Platts, Cornelius Vanderbllt Whitney and Mrs. Herbert Patterson, whose husband does things at the Chase Manhattan. New York THE LONG-awaited chess match between the Russian world champion Boris Spassky and the American challenger, Bobby Fischer, in Reykjavik, Iceland, may be stalemated in a dispute over lighting, Fred Cramer, past president of the U.

S. Chess Federation, said Sunday night Cramer, a consulting illumination engineer and a friend of Fischer, said a battle was brewing between Fischer and a television producer who has arranged for the right to televise the 24 game match scheduled to start Sunday. Speaking to newsmen at Kennedy International Airport before boarding Icelandic Airlines Flight 508 to Reykjavik, Cramer said, "Fischer won't play under anything but fluorescent lighting it is very important to him." Cramer said that the television contract, "in six figures," calls for filming the match in color and that fluorescent lighting does not have "the proper spectrum for color film." "The television people have insisted that they will use additional lighting such as incandescent or tungsten halogen," Cramer said. Fischer is opposed to any additional lighting, Cramer said. The unpredictable Fischer was supposed to have left on the same flight with Cramer but cancelled his reservation at the last minute.

Cramer shrugged when asked why Fischer did not show up. "He makes his own decisions," he said. (Fr tH Atucittri Pnul LIVING IN CITIES by Anthony Ridley, John Day. 1S4 pages, $7.95. A Review by Edward Barry IN THE LONG VISTA of man's residence on earth, the idea of huddling together in small areas seems a recent one.

Cities came into being only about 5,500 years ago, and the problems created by this novel way of life still await full solution. Ridley's new book, a summary of urban experience from Ur in' Mesopotamia to our modern day Sprawlsvllles, is rich in hoary dilemmas which in one form or another are still with us. Ancient cities did not suffocate in their garbage partly small animals were continually rooting thru the streets and eating anything edible. However, as populations increased, the refuse they generated exceeded the animals' capacity and threatened to make the streets impassable and the air unbreathable. In the middle ages, English cities were levying fines against citizens who.

allowed too much garbage to collect around their houses. It was not until the beginning of the 15th century that London had enough municipally owned carts to provide a'regular carry-off service. The problem of where to carry the stuff and what to do with it baffled our forebears just as it does us. As to street congestion, Ridley says that In the first century B. Rome's narrow lanes were so choked that the authorities-banned wheeled traffic during daylight hours.

In the 14th century, the English city of Bristol enforced off-street parking for farm wagons coming to market. About the same time, London was busy with a related problem trying to slow down the speeding carts that were making the streets hazardous. Where to put the people has always been a major urban problem. In olden times, towns could not expand indefinitely for, in the absence of a transportation system, everybody had to be able to walk to wherever be was going. The only way to grow was up.

In the second century, Rome is thought to have had about 46,000 of what we would call apartment buildings, many of them four and five stories high. In the 9th century, when Constantinople was the greatest city in Europe and probably in the world, many of its million or so inhabitants were stacked in nine-story Water pollution worried the Egyptians back in Old Testament times. The sight of dead fish floating in the Nile once set off a great flurry of well digging. In the sixth century B. Greece had laws forbidding the washing of clothes in springs that supplied drinking water.

A few hundred years later, Romans were shocked at the news that the emperor Nero had gone swimming in the pond that fed one of the city's nine aqueducts. Thruout Ridley's book, a reader is struck by the fact that progress has been in fits and starts, and with much doubling back, rather than in a straight line. Drainage, for example, was better in ancient Rome and Constantinople than it was in 17th century London which like many cities of its time still had open sewers. Street lighting, fire and police 'protection, and provision for recreation are among the other subjects the book touches upon. If in our own day many people have had to give up such a simple pleasure as a stroll thru the streets on a summer night, it may comfort us somewhat to know that we are not the first generation to have been restricted in this way.

The book's 120 illustrations supplement and clarify what the author has to say. All in all, "Living in Cities" should be of great interest to those millions of us who have exchanged country freedom and spaciousness for a high density type of existence.

West reasoned that in a highly competitive auction against a two suiter, desperate measures might well be in order.

Inasmuch as he was void in spades, there was no doubt in his mind mat if partner could be put in the lead at the opening gun, a spade return would set the contract. There was a temptation to lead a club in the hope that East held the ace, but even if that gambit proved successful, there might be some doubt on the letter's part as to the winning procedure at trick two. West decided to proceed on his original assumption that partner fitted both minors and, in order to alert East to the specific defen-sive measures required, West chose to underload the ace of diamonds at the opening East put up the king and his surprise at winning the first trick only served to alert him to the fact that his partner was indicating that some very unusual return was required. He promptly led back the deuce of spades and West ruffed to score the setting trick. merely taking out insurance on his part to carry on to five diamonds.

Altho North held a virtual yarborough, his holding in spades and hearts indicated Bridgo that a sacrifice was in order and, in the expectation that the price would not be expensive, he bid five hearts. This call was passed back to West and inasmuch as East had failed to double the opponents, it became clear to West that his partner's values were concentrated in diamonds and clubs rather than the majors. He accordingly persisted to six diamonds. When both North and East passed, it became South's turn to make a decision. Altho there was a chance that the opposition might be off two tricks, West's willingness to carry on to the six level at unfavorable vulnerability conditions, indicated that a substantial defensive profit was not in the offing.

On the theory that there was more to be gained than lost by going on, South bid six hearts-reasoning that any loss he might suffer would be minimal. Had West proceeded In the normal manner by cashing the ace of diamonds first, there would be no story to CliriitltAMtt. Moffwi fova, S) tacdvca for Ilia abava.

We feel that the ultimate credit on the deal reverts to West for a highly imaginative and yet logically contrived opening lead that assured a small profit for his side on the deal. Observe that had he been permitted to play the hand at six diamonds, North must lead a heart or else West would have emerged with 12 tricks on the deal. South opened with one spade and West overcalled with two diamonds.

North lacked the values to make a free bid and East who had enough to open the bidding himself including a fit for partner's suit and a stopper in ipades, chose to try the shorter road to game by jumping directly to three no trump. South was reluctant to defend on the deal inasmuch as there was a good chance for his side to score offensively if North held fit for either major suit so he hid four hearts. Now it was West's turn. He reasoned that partner's jump was based at least in part on values in the minors and with a highly unbalanced holding, consisting of II cards in diamonds and.
