Hanrahan was attending his trial before Judge Philip Romiti in the Panther raid case. While Supt. James Conlisk addresses the Chicago-Cook County Commission on Criminal Justice, State's Atty. Edward Will Utilize Computers stamp covers with them to the rrfoonlast summer as part of an arrangement in which a $21,000 trust fund was to be set up for their children.

Some of the 400 unauthorized covers later turned up in the hands of a West German stamp dealer who was offering them for sale at $1,500 each. The space agency said that the astronauts, David R. Scott, James B. Irwin, and Alfred M-Worden, subsequently realized that they had acted improperly and refused to accept the money for the trust fund or valuable stamps that were offered in place of the money. Effect on Assignments Nevertheless, the agency said, the astronauts "exercised poor judgment and will be reprimanded and action will be given due consideration in future flight assignments." This appeared to kill any chance for further flights for the three because only one more moon landing mission and three earth orbital Skylab flights are planned between now and the end of the decade.

In a statement, George M. Group OKs New Chicago Police Radio System Low, the deputy head of the space agency said: "The astronauts were under extreme stress in the months before the flight to the moon and their actions must be considered in this light. Nevertheless, we cannot condone their actions." Approached in Florida The agency said the astronauts, whose lunar flight took place between July 26 and Aug. 7 of last year, were approached in Cocoa Beach, with the stamp cover proposal prior to the flight. Cocoa Beach is just south of Cape Kennedy.

The agency identified the man who made the proposal as Horst Eiremann, a German-born naturalized American citizen, who at the time was an employe of a civilian company working on the space program. The agency said that the 400 gifts for friends and relatives, f. The agency said they sent; 100 of the unauthorized covers to Eiremann, who had returned to West Germany to live. Some or all of these, it continued, wound up in the possession of Herman E. Sieger, the West German stamp dealer who was offering them for sale.

The covers were envelopes bearing an 8-cent stamp commemorating man's first landing on the moon, a pair of 8-cent stamps commemorating the American space program, the Apollo 15 insignia, postmarks from Cape Kennedy on the day of liftoff and from the recovery ship Okinawa on the day of splashdown, and the signatures of the astronauts. challenged before it was approved by the commission, was $17,756 In proposed travel expenses. Other Grants Approved It was explained that the travel funds would be used to send policemen and nonpolice city employes to inspect radio systems in New York City, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Dallas, and Kansas City. In other action, the commis sion recommended state approval of the following grants: One million dollars to form and coordinate youth facilities in the Uptown and Grand Boulevard -Oakland neighborhoods; $157,000 to continue a program of drug treatment and counseling for western suburbs; $151,000 to reduce juvenile delinquency in seven southern suburbs; $103,000 to augment an earlier grant of $314,000 to combine police communications in the villages of Arlington Heights, Elk Grove, and Mt. Prospect, and $66,000 to start a Chicagowide program of inscribing driver's license numbers on personal items to reduce the sale of stolen goods.

The six measures were sent to the Illinois Law Enforcement Commission for its approval and funding. BY JOHN O'BRIEN The Chicago-Cook County Commission on Criminal Justice yesterday approved and sent to the state for funding six costly anticrime measures, including one for $5.1 million to replace Chicago's aging police radio system. Acclaimed 11 years ago when new as a model for the world, Police Supt. James B. Conlisk commission chairman, said present police communications systems are "rap idly becoming unable to meet the increasing demands of citizens." Will Use Computers He said the change "will completely revolutionize" police radio systems.

Scheduled for testing starting this fall, Conlisk said the new system will use computers to pinpoint the location of police cars nearest to reported crimes and locations of complainants.

Use Sears Easy Payment Plan Sale Prices in Effect Four Days Only Symbols: In British-American usage, each move in a chess game is recorded using letters for each chess piece and numbers for each square on the board. The squares are numbered along the columns or files and named for the piece initially sitting at the first square of the file. For example, the third square in front of the rook on the side of the king is numbered: KR3, or king's rook 3. The letters and their corresponding pieces are: king; queen; bishop; Kt knight; rook; pawn. An between letters indicates the first piece captured the second.

0-0 indicates castling. "Ch" indicates "check" or that the king is threatened with capture. EM Glllli Ifpdiii Its siHSfSSS: BY HAROLD C. SCHONBERG New York Tirol Niws Unto REYKJAVIK, Iceland, July 11 The first game of the Bobby Fischer -Boris Spassky match for: the world chess championship' was adjourned tonight after 40 moves, and the consensus of experts gave the Soviet champion the edge. However, it was felt that his American challenger still had good chances of drawing.

The game is to be resumed at 5 p. m. local time tomorrow. The game started quietly enough. Spassky opened as many had expected, with P-Q4, and Fischer adopted a Nimzo-Indian defense.

This is a standard defense, and it seemed as tho the players were heading toward a routine draw. Then, on the 29th, move, the game exploded. Spassky offered a pawn that, in the opinion of the experts, could not be taken. It was what is known as a "poisoned pawn," for if Fischer took it his bishop probably would be trapped. Gasps of Surprise Fischer took it and gasps of surprise swept thru the auditorium.

Had Spassky miscalculated? Or had Fischer misjudged, accepting two pawns for the bishop and a tenuous position? Even if Fischer does lose the first game, he has achieved the respect of every flayer here by rising to Spas-sky's dare and throwing away a sure draw for a speculative attack. At adjournment, the 29-year-old grand master was desperately trying to turn to advantage his pawns on the king's aide of the board. The grand masters at the scene felt Spas-sky's position was superior and Fischer would have trouble drawing. Expert Opinions "Perhaps Bobby will draw," said Dragolub Janosevic, a master. "Probably a draw," said Ni-ikolai Krogius, a Russian grand master and psychologist for the Soviet team.

Yugoslav Svetozar Gligoric, one of the world's strongest players, said he did not think Fischer had chance, at all. Another powerful player had no comment am not thinking am drinking my coffee," said Efim Geller, Spas-sky's second. The Sports Hall was crowded for the game. Attendance figures were unavailable, but the house manager estimated the audience at over There are 2,300 chairs and room for 1,000 more if the demand requires it. The match could last 24 games.

The 35 year old Soviet star was dressed in a dark business suit that included a vest. He arrived promptly at 5 to be greeted by a stage without an opponent. He spoke to the ref-eree, Lothar Schmid, and made his first move. Schmid then started Fischer's clock.

Fischer turned up seven minutes later wearing a business suit and a white shirt. For most of the match there was hardly any movement by the players or the hushed audience in the dim arena. Fischer was mostly hunched over the board; Spassky had his head locked in his hands. A Busy Night Tonight will be a busy one for both players and it is unlikely that they will get much sleep. The adjourned position is complicated and endless variations will be tested by Spassky and Fischer and their respective seconds, Galler and the Rev.
