The YMCA purchased the property and the lake was dedicated in memory of the late Robert N.

Floods Leave Corning Museum A Muddy Mess CORNING, N.Y. (AP) The flood waters are gone. Now it's mud that plagues the Corning Glass Works and its world-famous treasure trove, the Corning Museum of Glass. This weekend, many of the company's flood-cleanup workers are enjoying their first real rest since flood waters the Coming area nearly three weeks ago. "We're giving most of our crews the weekend off," said Campbell Rutledge.

"They're simply exhausted." Rutledge, a vice president of the glass firm, estimated that nearly four- fifths of the firm's 6,500 employes here are now back on the job. 'He said most of the company's facilities were back in operation, but the old Main Plant, which produces a variety of glassware, including heatproof types and laboratory items, remains out of commission.

Anheuser Plans Larger Brewery ST. LOUIS (AP) AnheuserBusch, said Friday it has leased 300 acres of land in Solan County, to build a $40 million brewery. The plant, Just west of Fairfield, would have an annual capacity of two million barrels and would employ about 300 persons. It is expected to begin operation early in 1975. Anheuser-Busch is the world's largest brewery, producing Budweiser, Miehelob and Busch beers.

It has breweries in St. Louis; Newark, N.J.; Los Angeles; Tampa, Houston; Columbus, Ohio; Jacksonville, Merrimack, N.H., and Williamaburg, Va. temporarily to other Coming plants in Ohio and Pennsylvania. It may be the end of July before the main plant can reopen, Rutledge said. Sometime in August is the earliest reopening date foreseen for the Corning Glass Center, where floodwaters sent staff members scurrying to the rooftop for helicopter rescue.

The tourist center houses the Corning Museum of Glass, a collection that includes Egyptian beads, important Renaissance pieces and prized early American specimens. Its director, Paul Perrot, has become an archaeologist of sorts. He is using fine-mesh screens to sift through the mud inside the building, hoping to find fragments of the dozens of exhibits that were smashed. He estimated that 20 per cent of the best items in the collection have been lost. Also damaged were about 7,000 books about glass.

These are being restored through a freeze-dry process. Wig Wearing Sgt. Given Demotion SAN ANTONIO, Ohio (AP) Gary T.

12th Century Chess Center Of Treachery NEW YORK (AP) The Insulted egos and white-knuckled tensions before the FischerSpassky chess match may seem to be a blazing battle, but pale beside the tales of bloodthirsty games in Medieval Iceland. Chess boards in the 12th and 13th centuries were often the center of treachery, revenge, intrigue and murder, according to sagas of the time. When a certain King Louis lost a chess game to Rognvald, he stood up in a fury, shoved his chessmen into a bag and smashed his opponent in the face with it, leaving him a bloody mess. "Take that!" exclaimed the king. Rognvald rode off in a panic.

But his brother stayed to split the king's skull open. These stories are sagas from Wfflard 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 for his series beginning Tuesday in Reykjavik with Boris Spassky, 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 gf chess for now I own your costly objects!" said his competitor.
