(UPI) President Nixon will send his secretary of commerce to Moscow this month to work on "a comprehensive new approach" to U.S.-Soviet trade, following up the un-precendented $750 million grain deal. He will bring up the old Russian World War II debt. Plans for the trip by Secre- Passengers don't mind REYKJAVIK, Iceland (UPI) The Boris Spassky-Bobby Fischer world chess match can begin Fischer's favorite chair has arrived. The swivel chair in metal and black leather was flown from New York to Iceland and put on the stage in the Reykjavik chess hall Sunday.

Spassky's Russian advisers arrived shortly after the much talked about chair and studied it suspiciously. Then they left without comment. Now the Icelandic organizers face a new problem: Where to find a similar chair in Iceland? "It would look better if both Spassky and Fischer had the same chairs," said Gud-mundur Thorarinsson, president of the Icelandic Chess Federation. Fischer took one look at the dozen different chairs the Icelanders had assembled from Reykjavik's furniture stores the other day, sat down in some of them and then gave his verdict: "Fly in my own chair." Spassky, the 35-year-old world champion, did not seem to worry much about details of the $250,000 match. Before leaving for a salmon fishing tour of northern Iceland the defending champion said, "I am not going to argue about chairs, chess boards and sets.

I will leave that to Bobby. It makes no difference to me." After lengthy and dramatic preludes, both Fischer and Spassky appeared ready to start the first of their 24 games Tuesday. "Bobby is relaxed and ready. We will play Tuesday unless Spassky is ill," said Fred Cramer, vice president of the U.S. Chess Federation.

But the players still have to inspect and approve the facilities in the hall, where the organizers expect 3,000 fans paying $5 each to be on hand Tuesday. Gudmundur Arnlaugsson, deputy referee of the match, spent all day Sunday polishing off the fine details. He tested several chess boards and finally settled for the one made in Iceland specially for the match. It has been put together from Icelandic stones. Arnlaugsson, who had to take over when the chief referee Lothar Schmid of Germany flew home Saturday, also has a choice of five or six different chess sets of various sizes.

Schmid said he would return Thursday after visiting his son, who was injured in a traffic accident.

LOS ANGELES (UPI) The Pentagon Papers trial of Daniel Ellsberg finally begins today and it could bring a parade of former government officials testifying about the practice of "leaking" classified information. A panel of 100 prospective jurors was summoned to appear in U.S. district court in the government's espionage, theft and conspiracy case against the 41-year-old Ellsberg and codefendant Anthony J. Russo.

Selection of 12 jurors and six alternates is expected to require about a week, with the total trial lasting 10 to 12 weeks. In pretrial hearings, the defense produced affidavits from a number of high government officials that it was common practice to make secret information available to the news media. Among them were John Kenneth Galbraith, former ambassador to India; Kennedy White House aide Theodore Sorenson and former assistant secretary of state for public affairs Robert Manning. Another key question is whether the documents on the evolution and escalation of the Vietnam war contain information dangerous to the New Kirby store open Paul and Jane Clarke are pleased to announce the opening of the new Kirby home maintenance store at 404 Folsom right across from Roseville Square. The new shop named for the Kirby Classic, a powerful upright vacuum cleaner manufactured in Cleveland, Ohio, offers a full line of sales, service and repairs for Kirby cleaners.

Clarke brings more than 20 years of sales and service experience to the new Kirby of Roseville showroom. Clarke noted that the Kirby Classic helps busy home-makers by providing a complete home maintenance system in one compact machine. Most Kirby's are sold through home demonstrations. The new showroom will be open Monday thru Saturday from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.

for home appointments call national security and defense. The government contends they do and has earmarked certain sections of the 57-volume study to prove their point. Ellsberg and Russo say they broke no law but performed a patriotic act in making information available to the American public about Vietnam decisionmaking, that it may have been embarrassing to several administrations but was not espionage. Both sides are expected to call expert witnesses on the sensitivity of the documents. Ellsberg and Russo, colleagues at the Rand Corp.

in Santa' Monica from which they admit the papers were removed, face possible lengthy prison terms if they are convicted. The indictment makes no mention of the "leaking" of the documents but actually talks only of a conspiracy alleged to have been carried out from March, 1969, to September, 1970, more than eight months before the documents were published. The New York Times, which won this year's Pulitzer Prize for publishing the papers, is not mentioned in the indictment. Head of the defense team is Leonard Boudin of New York, veteran civil rights lawyer who comes here from the Berrigan trial in Harris-burg, Pa. His other clients have included Dr.

Benjamin Judith Coplon, Paul Robeson and Dick Gregory. Leonard Weinglass of Newark, N.J., is Russo's chief counsel. He was an attorney in the Chicago Seven conspiracy trial where he drew a contempt sentence that later was reversed. The prosecutor is David R. Nissen, heading a special team from the Justice Department in Washington.

He was formerly chief of the U.S. Attorney's Criminal Division in Los Angeles. U.S. District Judge Matt Byrne will hear the case. The 41-year-old Byrne was elevated to the bench only last year after serving as U.S.

attorney in Los Angeles. A spectator at all the pretrial sessions has been Ells-berg's wife, Patricia, whom he married less than two years ago.

The airline, prompted by two hijackings on successive days last week and new rules issued by President Nixon, began rigid inspection procedures last Friday.

Only passengers are being admitted to the waiting area, hand baggage is being inspected and each passenger is required to pass through a metal detecting device. Airline officials said they have received no major complaints, and passenger traffic remains normal. Mr. and Mrs. Ron Matthews of San Francisco were among the passengers inspected before Flight 389 Sunday.

"I don't mind the delay it causes," Matthews said. "It's important that they check so as to cut down the possibility of such incidents occurring." Mrs. Matthews said the airline notified them to check in for the flight a little earlier than usual because of the inspection. The Boeing 727 jet used for Flight 389 was the same one that was hijacked last Thursday night. To ease passengers' qualms, the airline had an organist in the waiting area playing "Tiptoe Through the Tulips." MONTREAL (UPI) Robert Carter, whose father was the passenger killed during a hijacking in San Francisco, says he plans to file a damage suit.

Carter, whose home is in Vancouver, B.C., said Sunday he plans to sue Pacific Grass fire About 26 firefighters, backed by four air tankers, controlled a fire that swept through 50-75 acres of grassland Sunday between Lake Folsom and Placerville.

Peterson were disclosed, this weekend by Henry Kissinger, Nixon's chief foreign policy adviser. The President wants "a comprehensive new approach to the issue of U.S.Soviet economic relations," Kissinger told newsmen. He described the agreement to sell the Russians American grain as "a major step" toward that end.

The deal is by far the largest such trade transaction ever between the United States and the Soviet Union. Peterson's negotiations will focus on settlement of the World War II Lend-Lease debt owned by Russia and credit arrangements, two of the major obstacles to broader trade between the two. The United States claims the Russians owe about $800 million and the Soviet Union only acknowledges a $300 million debt. Under the grain 'deal the Soviet Union will be granted up to $500 million in credit through the commercial credit corporation, the government-backed agency which normally handles commodities transactions, at the regular 6-1-8 per cent interest. It also marked the first occasion that such credit has been furnished the Russians.

Their previous purchases were for cash. During the first year of the three-year agreement, Russia will buy at least $200 million worth of U.S. crops their choice of a mix of wheat, corn, sorghum, rye, barley and oats. Nixon was pleased with the agreement, among other reasons, because it will provide work not only for American farmers but for those involved in shipping it, such as railroad and dock workers, exporters, seamen and shippers, the White House said. The agreement was announced as Nixon relaxed here at his Oceanside home.

On Sunday he flew by helicopter with Mrs. Nixon to Los Angeles for a 1-1-2 hour visit with Mrs. Nixon's family. Two of her brothers and a sister and their spouses gathered at the home of Matthew Bender, a half-brother who is recuperating from a recent operation, for the rare family get-together. Press Secretary Ronald Ziegler said Nixon planned several meetings this week with his budget advisers to talk about the election-year spending habits of Congress and with Kissinger to talk about the Vietnam peace talks which open in Paris on Tuesday.

Kissinger told newsmen Saturday there were indications that Hanoi would take a new and more reasonable attitude to the negotiations which were broken off May 4 by the U.S. side in response to North Vietnam's massive offensive in the South. He did not disclose what the indications were, other than to point out that intense diplomatic activity has been underway since Nixon's Moscow summit. i lit tn Southwest Airlines because he feels U.S. airlines "are really negligent about hijacking." "It's not a question of amount," he declared.

"It is simply that the airlines in our opinion are really negligent about hijacking." "Pilots in the U.S. and all over the world wanted to go on strike to protest the hijackings. The airlines stopped the pilots with a court injunction because it would cost them too much money." He said he planned to file suit in San Francisco Tuesday or Wednesday, but "if for some reason. American government does not proceed, we will take some recourse to this action in the Canadian courts." "But I feel certain we won't have any trouble having our case heard." Two Bulgarians hijacked a PSA plane Wednesday, demanding ransom, parachutes and a flight to Siberia. They were killed by FBI agents in a shootout in which Carter's father, Stanley, was fatally wounded by one of the hijackers.

The son was in Montreal preparing for his father's funeral. The father was a retired Canadian railroad man. I WAV'S 5 Apr fraoiro urr BETTER EDUCATED. BETTER MOTIVATED.
