It's Spassky's Move Fischer Apologizes to Russian, Opens Way for Play federation, the Icelanders, "The thousands of fans around the world and especially to the millions of fans and the many friends I have in the United States." However, Fischer brushed aside a demand from the Soviet Chess federation that he forfeit the first match because of his tardy arrival. He said this "would place me at a tremendous handicap" and he didn't believe the "world's champion desires such an advantage in order to play me."

Record Low of 44 Set Here An all-time low tempera-tire record for July brought shivers to this morning.

The temperature dropped to an oificial 44 degrees at 6 a.m. today, nine degrees below the 91-year-old mark of 53 for July 6, recorded in 1891.

Robert R. Shaw (R-Co-lumbus) has introduced a bill to provide transportation facilities in urban areas and between cities financed by an additional -c tax on each gallon of gasoline. The tax would generate an estimated $102 i 1 1 i annually, Shaw said, and cost the average Ohio motorist about $12.66 a year. The financing plan would reduce the burden on local communities for of state highways and bridges. It would also provide a means of funding mass transportation systems and facilities.

THE KEY is the establishment of an Ohio Transportation commission, which would have authority to combine the state's present transportation assets and issue revenue bonds to finance bus, rail, marine, aviation and parking programs. The Ohio Turnpike commission, Ohio underground parking commission and Ohio Bridge authority would be merged into the new commission. It would be empowered to develop mass transit systems and terminal areas with parking and interconnection points. Shaw said local costs would be reduced by $36 million a year by the state's taking over the cost of highway and bridge construction, maintenance of state routes and absorption of local costs of urban transportation studies and a decrease in the cities' shares of federally-assisted projects. THE BALANCE of the $102 million would be broken down this way: $22 million to highway improvements, million for operation of the Ohio Highway patrol, $17 million to pay debt service on bonds, and $11 million for raises granted highway department employes earlier this year.

Shaw, chairman of the senate finance committee, said the present seven-cent a gallon state gasoline tax is inadequate to maintain and expand the highway system.

Both Communist allies of Hanoi cautioned separately that in the light of latest developments the fortunes of war may turn against North Vietnam. The sources reported that, both assured the Hanoi regime of continued firm political, moral and military support. But they made it clear at the same time in almost identical terms they cannot risk confrontation with the i States which indirectly limits the scope of their assistance. THEY DID NOT ask for specific concessions from Hanoi in the suggested effort for a 1 1 1 with the United States. But they implied the need for some degree of flexibility that would pave the way for an end to the war.

The diplomats said the effect of the two-pronged "intervention" by Peking and Moscow was shattering in Hanoi.

Peden said the city currently has eight tewer inspectors than last year.

THE POLITICAL and war councils were said to be hard at work in Hanoi on the scope of future strategy. While Peking's and Moscow's advice was said to have been contemptuously brushed aside, the message itself was, however considered too serious in its implications for Hanoi to ignore. Hanoi, according to the informants, has been deeply hit by both China's and Russia's guarded reaction to the American blockade of North Vietnamese ports. The North Vietnamese were said to have seen this as the ultimate confirmation of their growing suspicions of flagging support from their allies. North Vietnamese shelled Hue with 122mm artillery for the fifth day.

About 100 shells hit the former imperial capital, but half of them were duds. One person was reported wounded, and a Roman Catholic church and a home were badly damaged.
