If an opponent's piece is THE QUEEN: The most powerful in his path, he piece of all. Far THE PAWN: It moves straight ahead, either one or ship match, here's a brief primer outlining the basics of the game for those who hare never played. For latest developments on the match scheduled to begin today, see story on Page one. before the Women's Lib came along, the founders of chess knew who holds real power. The queen may move in any direction as far as she desires.

Anything that gets in her path is taken. THE KING: Poor fellow. At best, he may lumber along one space at a time, although it may be in any direction. He, too, may take an opponent's piece. Now you know how to set up your game.

What is it you want to accomplish? The object of the game, quite simply, is to "checkmate" the opposition's king. That is, to place your pieces in such a manner that the opponent cannot move his king without its being "taken." It is possible to reach a point where the king can neither escape nor be taken. This is known as a stalemate. Now you know what to do and why all that's left is to find an opponent. Oh yes, there's one other thing strategy.

Tha: comes in three ways: practice, reading a good chess book, and watching two real pros like Fischer and Spassky. two spaces on its first move and then one thereafter. The pawn does not "take" an opponent's piece directly in its path, however. If an opponent's piece is on a square diagonally in front of a pawn, on either side, the pawn may make the diagonal move to take it. THE ROOK (or Castle): It can move one space at a time or all eight, but only vertically or horizontally.

If an opponent's piece is in the way, the Rook "takes" it. THE KNIGHT: This piece has a strange pattern of movement. It always moves three spaces in any direction but always in the shape of an It can move one space forward or backward and then two to the right or left, or it can move two forward or backward and then one to the right or left. If an opponent's piece occupies the space at the end of this journey, it is taken. The Knight is the only piece that can jump over other pieces in the process of being moved.

THE BISHOP: Whatever color the bishop is on at the start of the game will be his home until he is eliminated. If he starts on black, for example, he moves on black throughout the game but always diagonally through the narrow corners of the squares either one the idea of looking ahead, you're not likely to win many games. How do you start a game of chess? First, arrange the board so that a white square is at the right hand of each player. One of the players then takes a black piece and a white piece in his hands and, after hiding them under the table or behind his back, he lets his opponent choose a hand. The color in that hand will belong to the player who chose iL.

White will make the first move, once the board is set up. Setting up the pieces is simple. On the first row nearest the player, the queen goes on her own color and the king next to her so that there are three spaces remaining on each side of the two. Then, 'extending toward the outer ends of the board come the bishops, knights and rooks. In front of this array comes a row of pawns.

By Richard M. Weintraub, Globe Staff Remember in high school when the coach diagrammed all those plays on the blackboard? Or maybe you can recall when your mother was teaching you how to knit. In each case, two things are of basic importance: First, you have to know the rules of whatever it is you are doing, be it the size of the playing field or how to hold the knitting needles. Second, you have to plan ahead. You have to have a strategy.

In this sense, chess that game we are going to be hearing a lot about as two masters play in Iceland is not too different from football or knitting. If you don't know the rules of the game, you're not even likely to get beyond setting the board up. And then, if you don't have Cj Miss Evert, Connors lead American charge Connors and Stan Smith of Sea Pines, S.C., are the only Americans in tht men's singles quarterfinals. The women are heavily represented with Miss Evert being joined by Bil-lie Jean King, Nancy Rich-ey Gunter, Patti Hogan and Rosemary Casals. Mrs.

Mrs. Gunter of San Angelo, Texas eliminated Kerry Harris of Australia, 6-3, 7-5; Miss Hogan of La Jolla, Knocked off Pam United Press International WIMBLEDON, England Teenage sensations Chris Evert and Jim Connors led a parade of six Americans into the quarterfinals of the Wimbledon Tennis Championships yesterday, the best over all American performance in 17 years. The 17-year-old Miss Evert of Ft. Lauderdale, erased Julie Anthon of Malibu, 6-3, 6-2, and Connors, 19, of Belleville, 111., trounced Francois Jauffret of France, 6-2, 6-3.

U.S. BETTER by Starr says he'll play this season Associated Press GREEN BAY, Wise. Bart Starr of the Green Bay Packers, who missed most of last season with two arm operations, announced yesterday that he'll return for his 17th season this fall. The 38-year-old quarterback had set July 1 as the day he would make his decision known. Starr, who played only the last five games last season, admitted he could not throw all the types of passes he would like.

Nevertheless, he said, Dan Devine, head coach and general manager of the National football League team, has convinced him that his playing career should continue. "I have great respect for coach Devine and pledge him and his staff my complete dedication to ensure the continuing development of this fine young team," Starr said. Devine said Starr has agreed to terms and will sign a contract soon. Technically, Starr is a free agent, having played out his option last year. In his abbreviated season in 1971, the former Alabama player failed to pass for a touchdown, and his longest completion was 31 yards, he completed 24 of 45 passes for 186 yards.

TENNIS Stan Smith WATCH THE BALL As you know, the rest of a swing ii worthiest unless the ball and racquet maka proper contact. Contact is the most important factor in any ball sport such as baseball, golf or van kicking a football. Ideally, the point of contact between the ball and racquet is to the side of the body and a few inches in front of the left foot (towards the net). Hit the ball in the middle of the strings. Try very hard to we the ball hit the racquet strings.

There's a tendency to pul! your head away too soon, and the result is just as bad in tennis as it is in golf and baseball. Ken Rosewall actually watches the point of contact after he follows ILE NASTASE SHOWS DETERMINATION IN OUSTING TOM GORMAN AT WIMBLEDON.

Teeguarden of Los Angeles, 6-3, 6-4 and Miss Ca-s a 1 of San Francisco stopped Betty Stove of Holland, 6-3, 6-2.

Connors, angrily denied British press reports he is romantically involved with Miss Evert, the new dar-, ling of the Wimbledon crowd. "We've had dinner twice together, but that does not mean we are engaged or anything. We are just two young people on our first trip to Britain. Everything is very exciting and we get on well together, so it's natural we sometimes go out," he said. Connors' victory qualified him for a meeting with second seeded Hie Nastase of Romania, a 6-3, 3-6, 8-6, 6-1 winner over Tom Gorman of Seattle, Wash.

Australia's Colin Dibley took sixth seeded Frenchman Pieere Barthes 8-9, 6-3, 6-2, 6-1, to set up a meeting with third seeded Manuel Orantes of Spain, who beat Romania's Ion Ti-riac, 6-4, 3-6, 6-3, 4-6, 6-3. Miss Evert, outfitted in pink panelled tennis attire, had some difficulty in solving the strength of Miss Anthony, but then began putting her baseline drives within six inches of the chalk and beat her opponent with a precision game. Miss Evert's quarterfinal opponent will be Miss Hogan and if she gets past the Californian her rival in the semifinals will be Evonne Goolagong of Australia, who was extended to three sets before defeating Olga Morozona of Russia, 3-6, 6-0, 9-7, The only American loss to a foreign opponent occurred when Francoise Durr of France Beat Laura Dupont of Charlotte, N.C., 6-1, 6-2. Connors was not as dominating hs he had been earlier in the week, but he explained this away by saying: "Jauffret is a clav court specialist. He stayed at the baseline and made me do all the shot-making.

Obviously I made errors as a result." Keiiio reveals plans for Olympic quest Associated Press NAIROBI, Kenya Kenya's Kipchoge Keino will compete in the 1500-me-ters race and the 3000' meters steepplechase at the summer Olympic games in Munich, it was announced yesterday. In what was essentially a baseline match, Miss Bicknell, the seventh seed, and Mrs. Keyes each exhibited pinpoint accuracy. Fewer mistakes by Mrs. Keyes turned out to be the difference.

The doubles finals, between Ruth Jeffrey-Mary Richards and Baba Lewis-Joan Carder, will be held Sunday, July 9. Top seeded Una Keyes of Westwood defeated Dorothy Bicknell of Marshfield. 64,63, for the New England Women's Tennis Championship yesterday at the Longwood Cricket Club. The match was closer than the scores indicated, as Mrs. Keyes had to come from a 2 4 deficit to run four games and win the first set.
