She described how these people can lead normal productive lives with the aid of surgery. Leaving the plaza, the construction men carried placards which read: "Free Boston From State Rule," "Sarge Loves Park Square Just The Way It Is," "Sarge Is In Charge Of The march was carried out in a highly organized fashion with members of individual trades gathering under specific banners after receiving a warning from Ramsey that they should conduct themselves in an orderly homosexuals, it is the individual's ability to perform. He said that he found the homosexuals neither better nor less as an employee.

Dr. Pillard told the group they probably have more homosexuals, both male and female, in their employ than they know, because they are generally impossible to- identify. He said: "For every gay person who is fired, 10 others in your company will learn a lesson the lesson of passive resistance." The Boston University psychiatrist said there are 7.5 million homosexuals in the United States the second largest minority group. He said the figure was very reliable and that 18 percent of all men have had extensive sexual i experience with members of their own sex, lasting three or four years or more, and a much higher percentage have had sexual contact with other men. He said the situation for the homosexual is improving, that the National Assn.

of Mental Health has said homosexuality is not a sickness, and that the American Bar Assn. has recommended all states drop laws relative to sexual acts between consenting adults. He urged employers to drop their discrimination against homosexuals and to By Frank Mahoney Globe Staff The nation's top personnel people in convention at the Sheraton-Boston were told this morning that homosexuality should not be a factor in job employment More than 500 of the registered personnel managers jammed the conference room of the John B. Hynes Memorial Auditorium to hear a panel headed by Prof. Richard C.

Pillard, M.D., discuss "hiring the homosexual." All witnessed the premier of the documentary slide film "The Invisible Minority" by Deryck Calderwood, Ph.D, and Wasyl Szkodzin-sky. It told the story of the homosexual, both male and female, through their own words and views. It presented a case that showed the homosexual no different from the heterosexual except in sexual desires. They live, according to the film, two lives. One is the same as the heterosexual with the same desires, needs, troubles and the other is their sexual life.

Peter J. Myette, director of public education for the American Cancer and an employer of homosexuals, told the men and women managers: "My major concern is not whether or not to hire Pilot buzzes house of REDDING, Calif.

He put the small, stolen airplane through loops, dives and assorted aerial acrobatics, before he radioed his last words: "That's sioner of community affairs, Robert Kenney, director of the BRA and union representatives to work on a Park Plaza plan acceptable to the state.

Sargent said the discussion covered all construction within the 3oston area. He said he thought the meeting was productive. He added that the union representatives had conceded that they had not looked at the Plaza plans and did not realize that the financial arrangements were faulty faulty and the plan also had other flaws. Sargent said that when he walked down the State House steps to address the construction workers knew that "it wasn't possible to have a friendly chit-chat." But he added, "I wanted to show them that I was concerned." In a massive display of solidarity on the issue of construction job cutbacks, the thousands of workers had walked off their jobs earlier in the day, sacrificing a day's pay to vent their displeasure with the state government and the governor. The basis of the protest was the state's rejection of Mayor Kevin H.

White's plans for renewal of the Park Square area of Boston (the so-called Park Plaza project) and Gov. Sargent's veto of further roadbuilding in an around Boston. Prior to the State House demonstration, the construction workers had gathered at City Hall Plaza. Deputy Mayor Edward T. Sullivan, speaking for Mayor White who is recov-ing from oral surgery, told the group, "he- (White) is the leader of the fight for Park Plaza and he is with you all the way.

"This is the greatest demonstration we have ever had on this plaza," he said. "I know that with this kind of support we cannot fail." The construction workers reported for work as usual this morning but began walking off their jobs at 11 a.m. Twenty buses, carrying 1500 left the UMass construction site in Dorchester to take part. Another 1500 workers left their jobs at the new John Hancock building location, formed in Copley Square, and then marched to City Hall Plaza, where the main body of the demonstration was formed. Before long, the plaza was practically filled with men, dressed in their work clothes and wearing multicolored hard hats.

The crowd was estimated at more than 12,000 by Boston Police Dept. Supt. Warran A. Blair. Even as the workers prepared to leave City Hall Plaza for the short march $200,000 put up for chess match Associated Press NEW YORK Promotional aspects of the Fisch-er-Spassky world championship chess match" are becoming as important as they are in any big league sport.

Chess matches are not usually world happenings. But with the keen interest sparked by American Bobby Fischer challenging Russian Boris Spassky for the world title, it's a different situation. The Icelandic Chess Federation has put up close to $200,000 for the 24-game match, to be held for two months in Reykjavik, Iceland, starting July 2. The games will be played in the Reykjavik Sports-hall, which seats about 3000 people. The match will be open to the public, and tickets will cost $5 a game or $75 for the 24 scheduled games.

Of the $200,000 put up, some $125,000 will be paid in prizes to the players, according to the federation. the I ex-girlfriend, dies it.

"I tried to talk him down, but he wouldn't come down," said a deputy sheriff who had kept in constant touch with Lively over a two-way radio. MARCH Continued from Page 1 Whether he was heard even then is debatable.

"We want jobs we want jobs," was the continual chant of the construction workers and it could be heard all over downtown Boston. All doors to the State House were locked during the vociferous demonstration. Finally, seven representatives of the building and construction trades, were allowed into the building to meet with the Governor. They were headed by Fred Ramsey, executive secretary of the Boston Building and Construction Trades Council, and included Martin Curry, secretary of the Massachusetts State Building Trades; George Riley, Robert Keough and Robert Peters, all of the sheet metal workers, and Al Di-Rienzo and Louis Manderi-ni, Local 22 of the Laborers. Three other union representatives joined the group of seven 20 minutes later.

They were Jim Damery of the Painters Union; William Cleary of the Electrical Workers Union, and Gil Brown of the Ironworkers. In the office with the governor at the meeting were Tom Reardon, Sargent's press Lt. Gov. Donald Dwight, Albert Cramer, head of the governor's staff, and John Flannery, governor's secretary. Following a 40-minute meeting between the governor and representatives of the construction workers, Ramsey released the following information to those still assembled before the State House.

He said; "We are not completely satisfied yet but we are encouraged." The labor official said that Sargent will make a decision on Rte. 1-95 North and South before September. "It will go through," Ramsey said. Referring to Park Plaza, Ramsey said that representatives of the construction workers, developers, the mayor, and the governor's staff will sit down together and "find out who is lying." That meeting will be held this week. He added that some construction projects at the airport have been approved and that plans for the West End redevelopment will be resubmitted to the State Department of Community Affairs.

After the union representatives had left, Sargent emerged from his office to address the workers still in front of the State House. He said that at the suggestion of the union representatives, he had agreed to arrange a meeting with Miles Mahoney, commis- TRAVEL SERVICE 15 DAY ESCORTED EUROPEAN TOUR THIS SUMMER Don't Miss This Bargain LONDON AMSTERDAM BRUSSELS PARIS Includct round trip jt, hotsls, meit maali, iightiting, tips, taxi, and lots mora.
