The contract the company's production of 155 mm artillery shell casings th brass-colored portion at its Louisiana Army Ammunition Plant at Shreveport, La. The $71 million plant was built with the taxpayers' money but Sperry Rand invested only $50,000, said Proxmire, chairman of the Joint Economic Committee. In the 20-year span from 1951 to 1971, Sperry Rand made $17 million profit, Proxmire maintained. According to a General Accounting Office investigation, Proxmire said, Sperry Rand produced each casing at a claimed cost of $29.36 under a cost-plus contract. When the contract was put up for competitive bidding in 1971, Sperry Rand bid $6.49 below its original claimed cost, a reduction of 22 percent, to win the contract again.

In the past, Proxmire said, Sperry Rand made "exhorbitant profits by misrepresenting its costs. Now, it can continue to make large profits by using free government facilities, materials, and operating capital under a new contract." What is needed is "some comptition and free neter-prise" in defense procurement, said Proxmire, adding: "Any taxpayer would be overjoyed to make $17 million on a $50,000 investment, which is 340 times the investment or a 34,000 percent return. Even on an annual basis it is a 17-fold, or 1700 percent return on investment." But, said Proxmire, "since the taxpayer is paying for this instead of getting it, he is being played strictly for a sucker. Phe-nominal profits are easy to come by when the American taxpayers give a company a $71 million plant."

Export License WASHINGTON (AP) -The U.S. government approved an export license yesterday that will permit shipment of a $2,000 radio aerial to Hanoi. The world champion from the! Soviet Union was awarded second game yesterday in the championship match when Fischer refused to appear, staying in his hotel suite, because he objected to three moving picture cameras in the hall.

Thus Spassky, who won the first game, is 2-0 in the 24-game series. He needs 10 more points to retain the title. victory counts one point and a draw half a point, Fischer agreed go ahead with the match if the cameras were removed, although it was the movie and TV payments that allowed the Icelandic Chess Federation to offer a record purse to the two players. Gudmundur Thorarinsson, president of the ICF, said that if the match was stopped by Fischer's disqualification the organizers would not pay the loser's share. This meant that Fischer could not only lose his chances at the title but big money.

O. B.luer said today law-abiding go-go girls and fe-male Impersonators have nothing to fear In connection with a city ordinance he has proposed to regulate such activity. The proposed ordinance would prohibit female Impersonators employed in bars from selling liquor over the bar, would prohibit solicitation of drinks by go-go girls or female impersonators and would require go-go girls to register with police. The veteran police chief said he feared prositution, narcotics activity and mugging of customers would follow the current influx of go-go dancers and impersonators to Baton Rogue. The ordinance proposed that the go-go girls pay the city $5 a year for a license.

Without the license, the girls would not be able to be employed at a bar. Bauer said he does not want to ban female impersonators. "We just don't want them behind the bar," he said. Lt. Calley's Father Dies In Florida GAINESVILLE (Fla.) -(UPI) William L.

In a seven-page letter to Lothar Schmid, the chief referee, the American said he was. toM the cameras would be silent and invisible but "nothing could have been farther from facts." He previously had told Schmid that although he could not see or hear the cameras, the knowledge that they were there made him nervous. Fischer declared that when all the camera equipment had been removed "I will be at the chessboard." A four-man committee voted 3-1 to reject Fischer's request for a replay, said Gudmunder Arnlaughsson, of Iceland, assistant referee who served on the committee. "We've agreed to support Schmid's decision," he said. "Three of us felt that it could not be done otherwise.

There was one against." Opposing was Fred Cramer, of the U.S. Chess Federation, and an associate of Fischer.

Chrysler announced in Detroit yesterday that it is withdrawing part of a request to raise the prices of 1973 models by about 5 percent.
