Mr. Bhutto said this territory could be used as a launching site for future Indian attacks that could threaten Lahore. India will keep all the high points and other areas captured in Kashmir, since both sides had agreed to keep the gains of last December's 14-day war there.

Navy announced yesterday that it had introduced a new televi sion-guided, bomb that scored direct hits against its first six targets in North Vietnam. The called "Fat Al bert" by naval aviators, was called an improved version of the "Walleye," a guided to its target by a televi sion camera in its nose. "The primary advantages of the new 'Fat Albert' over the earlier Walleye series," the Navy said, "are increased explosive impact, better reliability and greater stand-off range or the ability to hit targets from higher altitudes, the most popular feature for combat air crews exposed to enemy ground fire." The new bomb knocked out four bridges and two military supply buildings in its first six missions, a spokesman said. The U.S. command an nounced that American pilots flew 270 air strikes against targets in North Vietnam Thursday, leveling three coastal defense sites and nearly a dozen military buildings in the Hanoi-Haiphong re The planes also destroyed three warehouses and a rail road bridge outside Haiphong and sank three barges 19 miles northeast of the port, a com munique said.

Quang Tri fighting continues on 3 sides By The Associated Press Beirut (Reuter) Radio Libya broadcast a recorded sDeech bv CoL Muammar Ka- dafi last night, apparently with the aim of quasning persistent rumors that the fiery young leader had been thrown in jail following an extremist coup. The broadcast broke nearly 48 hours of silence from the Libyan capital of Tripoli, where the 30-year-old colonel was reported under arrest. In Cairo, the authoritative Egyptian newspaper Al-Ahram yesterday denied reports mat Colonel Kadafi had been jailed and said they were deliberately propagated by the Mo roccan radio. It was Rabat radio that first reported Colonel Kadafi had been overthrown.

Relations between Morocco and Libya have been strained since last summer, when Libya declared its support for the abortive coup attempt by Mo roccan Army rebels against King Hassan. But in London the diplomatic correspondent of the liberal Manchester Guardian said UPI wherever possible outside the city while laying siege to Quang Tri itself with artillery and air strikes. In this manner, the sources say, the South Vietnamese forces hope to wear down the city's defenders without be coming bogged down or trapped in bloody, high-casualty street fighting against well-entrenched enemy troops. Far to the rear of the task force, North Vietnamese gun ners fired between 5 and 10 122-mm. rockets into Hue, hit ting south of the Perfume River for the first time in nearly two weeks of almost daily shellings.

Two of the shells landed near an American advisers' compound, but no American casualties were reported. A South Vietnamese military spokesman in Hue said one Vietnamese was killed and 13 were wounded. plea on In the world Bobby Fischer, the American challenging Boris Spassky, the world chess titleholder from the Soviet Union, charged that tournament organizers in Reykjavik, Iceland, seemed to "upset and provoke me" deliberately, but an appeals committee rejected his request to replay the game he forfeited Thursday Page Al The British Army ended four months of restraint and moved in large strength to occupy two Provisional IRA strongholds in Belfast Page Al Severe fighting raged around Quang Tri city and South Vietnamese troops advancing from the northeast were reported within 500 yards of the provincial capital Page A2 Moscow's park bench chess players used to call him "Bobby."

Lynch, prime minister of Ireland, charged that the IRA is "coldly, calculatingly and deliberately" trying to drive Northern Ireland into "full-scale war." But he said the IRA would get no sympathy or help from his country Page A4 speech "to the assembly here.

President Bhutto told his countrymen that if they want war they should look for "somebody else." He said he has opted for peace for the next 10-15 years and the next generation can decide whether they want to live in peace or destroy each other. President Bhutto ruled out any war over the "insur mountable question of Kash-mor, claimed by India and Pakistan, and said Pakistan would support any Kashmiri Muslim efforts to liberate themselves from "the Hindu yoke." He blamed his former chief, Field Marshal Mohammed Ayub Khan, for agreeing to shelve the Kashmir issue at Tashkent in 1966 after the 1965 war. Free and frank appraisal The National Assembly's special session was convened to approve the accord reached in Simla 12 days ago between Prime Minister Indira Gandhi and President Bhutto. According to observers, this was the first time a free and frank appraisal of Pakistan's relations with India over the last 25 years' had been made. As President Bhutto put it, most of the people of Pakistan and members of the assembly were for peace.

The accord was approved with only one or two dissenting voice votes. However, President Bhutto hit out strongly at parties and leaders whom he called "chau- venists," who he said were responsible for the present state of Indo-Pakistani rela tions. Case in the U.N. Mr. Bhutto, replying to charges that the Simla accord hit at Pakistan's basic founda tion and also weakens its case in the United Nations, where a debate over Kashmir is pend ing, charged that Pakistan failed to get any justice in New York.

Miss Clifford is entering law school at Catholic University this fall. "Three of us felt that it could not be done otherwise. There was one against." Opposing was Fred Cramer, an official of the U.S. Chess Federation, and an associate of Mr.

Fischer. The other members were Baldur Moller, an Icelandic Chess Federation official, and Nikolai Krogius, a Spassky aide. Andrew Davis, Mr. Fischer's lawyer who arrived in the morning from New York, ap peared upset by the ruling. Asked if Fischer would appear for the third game tomorrow, he replied: I can comment on that." Mr.

Davis appeared before the committee along with two Russians before it began its deliberations. Mr. Davis declared Mr. Fischer wanted the forfeited game played and deserved it because playing conditions in the hall had been ruined by the presence of the cameras. If one player objected, that was sufficient reason to halt the play, he contended.

Yefim Geller, Mr. Spassky's second, and Viktor Ivonin, from the Soviet Sports Com mittee, urged strict application of the tournament rules. These provide that the clock must be started if a player does not appear on time for a game and after an hour the game is forfeited if he does not appear. The Russians said a match can be postponed only for a written medical excuse and no excuse had been given. Mr.

Fischer delivered a copy of his protest to Mr. Spassky's hotel after handing the original to Mr. Schmid. He stuck the sealed envelope in Mr. Spas sky's pigeon hole and the Rus sian got it as he was eating breakfast in the hotel dining room.

Mr. Spassky read it and said. It about everything except chess." Mr. Spassky commented that he was disappointed and planned to go fishing for two days and not think about chess. Chester Fox, the New York promoter who bought the film rights to the championship.

Eight other South Vietnam ese were wounded when the helicopter crashed outside Quang Tri, the capital of South Vietnam's northernmost province.

South Vietnamese marines fought a series of engagements less than 3 miles from Quang Tri, while other airborne units were reported fighting within a mile of the southern and south eastern edges of the city.

In a seven-page letter to Lothar Schmid, the chief ref eree, the American said he was told the cameras would be silent and invisible but "nothing could have been farther from the facts." He previously had told Mr. Schmid that although he could not see or hear the cameras, the knowledge that they were there made him nervous. In his letter, however, he asserted: "The bungling unknowns who claimed to be professional cameramen were clumsy, rude and deceitful.

The only thing invisible, silent and out of sight was the fairness of the part of the organizers. "I have never compromised on anything affecting playing conditions of the game itself, which is my art and my profession. "It seemed to me that the organizers deliberately tried to upset and provoke me by the way they coddled and kowtowed to that camera crew. "I am keen to play this match, and I hope game two Colonel Kadafi's downfall seemed certain and he was now being held in detention at an Army barracks on the outskirts of Tripoli. The correspondent, Patrick Keatley, said the bloodless coup took place in dramatic circumstances last Tuesday but the Libyan regime had successfully obscured these events from the outside world.

Observers in Beirut took the broadcast of the recorded speech by Colonel Kadafi to mean that he was still in power and remained the leader of the country's Revolutionary Command Council. If he had been jailed no such speech would have been broadcast, observers said. On Tuesday, the Libyans announced that the No. 2 man in the regime, Maj. Abdul Salam Jalloud, would become premier, replacing Colonel Kadafi.

But diplomatic observers noted that this announcement was issued by the council and not by Colonel Kadafi. classif: Mr, Chester Fox who holds the filming rights to the chess games, confers with Bobby Fischer before dawn yesterday at the latter's hotel in Reykjavik, Iceland.

It was Mr. Fischer's splf-onn- fidence, his individuality and nis puDiic claim to being the wona Dest cness player that captured the Russians' imagination. Crazy or scared Perhaps bored with the knowledge that the world crown has remained in Russian hands for 24 years, the man on the street was not overly distraught when Mr. Fischer crushed Russia's Ti-gran Petrosian for the right to face Mr.

Spassky. The prospect of a major Soviet-American confrontation over the chess board was exciting and appealing. But the admiration has turned to disgust. 3 to 1 to reject Mr. Fischer's reauest for a renlav.

Soviet parks For the park bench players, Mr. Fischer is either "sumash-edshy" (crazy) or scared. Either way, the average Russian privately agrees with his government-controlled newspapers.

For months the Soviet press has criticized the American challenger as "a money-grubbing businessman," a chess player who carries around with him "a disgusting spirit of gain." Only a capitalist "Fischer's nothing more than a capitalist," one bearded player complained. "For him business comes before sports." The news media here have not devoted much attention to the chess match, but the average Russian chess player knows Mr. Fischer is down two points and that Mr. Spassky has not even begun to fight.
